“That is the promised glade,
The hill we climb, if only we dare it:
Because being American is more than a pride we inherit —
It’s the past we step into, and how we repair it.”
― Amanda Gorman, The Hill We Climb: An Inaugural Poem for the Country
Black history is American history and the stories, triumphs and challenges are an ongoing part of who we are as a people and culture. When we think about what it means to Live United, we must examine how by growing our understanding of how differences in our own lived experiences make us stronger as a whole.
