The Awesome Totally Traveling Black History Show

From the pioneering success of self-made millionaire Madam C.J. Walker to the foundational activism of W.E.B. Du Bois and the NAACP, this stirring multimedia presentation celebrates icons of resilience. These powerful stories of African American history, culminating in the historic presidency of Barack Obama, serve as a profound source of inspiration for the next generation.

“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for.
We are the change that we seek.” – Barack Obama

This program provides the audience with a dynamic learning experience that combines historical education with personal empowerment.
