Building Black Institutions: Autonomy, Labor and HBCUs – w/ Jelani M. Favors and Tera W. Hunter

This Black History Month, MIP is honoring the Historical Black Colleges and Universities in our country. We begin this four part series with a deep dive into the history of HBCUs, featuring Dr. Jelani M. Favors, author of “Shelter in a Time of Storm: How Black Colleges Fostered Generations of Leadership and Activism." This conversation sheds light on the complicated history of HBCUs, where white people came into the equation, and how HBCUs helped shape Black women into “weapons against white supremacy.” Dr. Favors reminds us that we are standing on the shoulders of giants.
