It's been said that those who don't learn from history are destined to repeat it. It is that conviction that makes this youthful christian History of black America an essential resource for current and future generations.
From the first African slaves to the first black professional athletes, from the revival at Azusa Street to the civil rights movement, from the who's who of historically black denominational leaders to the who's who of African American pop culture, Profiles in Black highlights with rich illustrations and famous quotes the names and events that have forged African American experience in the twenty-first century.
