Our History - Repairing the Past

A place to gather, and share, information on our own ancestors, historical figures and events and tell our own stories ourselves.

Will add to this mission statement as things go along, but this soapbox is open to everyone who wishes to join and participate. I have no clue how you sign up, but I'm sure it's fairly simple.

This is worse than I thought. I have no idea how to work the soapbox!

... time to bug P6.

Farmers has joined with The Association for the Study of African American Life and History to create a documentary film, Freedom’s Song: 100 years of African-American struggle and triumph, that highlights significant milestones in the history of the African-American experience during the past century. It includes living testimonials designed to put a personal face on the actual historical events featured in the film.

The Freedom’s Song package is free to educators and includes a DVD copy of the film, engaging and thought-provoking lesson plans and an interactive web site that will be continually updated with audio and video content.

This is a clip from the DVD, on the Tulsa OK race riot.
