In our latest episode of "Living Reconciled," Brian Crawford, Austin Hoyle, and Neddie Winters, delve into the profound connections between Black History and the Christian call to reconciliation. Throughout our discussion, we underscore the year-round significance of Black History, reflecting on the foundational work of Dr. Carter G. Woodson, who initiated Negro History Week, and the enduring contributions of Black Americans to our society and culture.
We share our thoughts on the critical role that Black History plays in the Christian narrative, emphasizing its importance in understanding our past, informing our present, and shaping our future. Our dialogue brings to light the ways in which Black History Month acts as a lens through which we can view the broader American story, highlighting the achievements, struggles, and resilience of Black individuals and communities.
In our conversation, we also reference the poignant words of Langston Hughes in his poem "I, Too, Sing America," which resonates with the themes of recognition, dignity, and belonging. Hughes' words echo the sentiments that we explore throughout our discussion, reinforcing the idea that Black history is an integral part of the American fabric.
I, too, sing America.
I am the darker brother.
They send me to eat in the kitchen
When company comes,
But I laugh,
And eat well,
And grow strong.
Tomorrow,
I’ll be at the table
When company comes.
Nobody’ll dare
Say to me,
“Eat in the kitchen,”
Then.
Besides,
They’ll see how beautiful I am
And be ashamed—
I, too, am America.
