“True Social Justice & Racial Equity Is Hard Work”
Schedule a Virtual Black History Workshop for your school and/or organization!
BRONDIHOUSE produces impactful and meaningful opportunities for students, educators, and organizations to learn about foundational Black History. Reviewing centuries of culture, economy, science, and influence specifically rooted in West Africa–the region from which the vast majority of African Americans originate, BRONDIHOUSE challenges and expands on what is traditionally taught, that Black history started in slavery, and instead, provides a more comprehensive and inclusive perception of Black history and its legacy of greatness.

VIRTUAL: Black History of Early West African Civilizations
All ages are invited to learn about the Black history of Early West African Civilizations in this interactive workshop led by ShaRhonda Knott Dawson of Brondihouse. We'll focus on the pre-colonial civilizations: The Ghana Empire and The Mali Empire, and their long-lasting impact on human history, continuing to today. We'll discuss West Africa's economies (gold and salt), the culture (griots and matrilineal society), and highlight the academic powerhouse, Timbuktu, and its impact on world civilization.
"Racial Crossfit has given me stronger language and understanding of economic, local and global and systems of racism. It has made me ever the more aware and in-tune with my internal and external landscapes. I hunger to do more, learn more, be more of an anti-racist. I also have had more conflicts with colleagues and other loved ones in the last few weeks which I attribute to my added understanding of how I and others contribute to racism daily and the need to speak up even when not easy or convenient of planned. In these difficult moments, I hold on to RCF {lessons}. I do not pretend to be "getting it right" AT ALL...in fact I know I'm not. But I'm trying and determined to continue."
