    Mar 1 2026

    Send a text

    Eloquently spoken Sabrina Harris shares stories from a lynching in Alabama that forces her family to become part of the Great Migration, a movement where approximately six million African Americans moved from the rural Southern United States to the urban North, Midwest, and West between 1910 and 1970. This story strongly echoes the ones from "The Warmth of Other Suns" the historical study by Isabel Wilkerson. With insight into how some Blacks, at times, feared the means to achieve Civil Rights, Haris speaks of her desire for change as a teenager, and her recollections about the night Barack Obama was elected President of the United States. She speaks about hope for the future of our nation. If there is only one podcast episode you listen to this year, the conversation with Sabrina Harris is the one to hear and learn from.
