World-class author, Ralph Ellison, said, “When I discover who I am, I will be free.” Dr. Rhonda Sherrod—whose work focuses on healing—created this podcast to present a more truthful, accurate, and comprehensive understanding of the brilliance Black people have displayed despite the traumatic and horrific obstacles to which we have been subjected. The History and Healing podcast seeks to shed light on history in a way that highlights the fact that Black people should love themselves fiercely. History and Healing is a production of The Need To Know Group and Surviving, Healing, and Evolving.
