Black Progress: The board game created around the history of Black America.
Choose901: What is your hope for individuals and families that encounter the game?
Dr. Moore: As we consider making updates to the game, we’ve been excited about hearing all the ways teachers and community leaders have utilized our game in various settings. Also, we want to continue getting the word out about the game and we’ve purposefully priced it to where everyone has the opportunity to enjoy this product.
George: There is a burning desire to hear black voices and uplift our legacy. Serving in ministry, I have conversations all the time about recognizing the contributions of black faith leaders that paved the way for us. Men like Martin Luther King Jr. (who was killed in Memphis), Charles Mason (buried here in Memphis), John Perkins, etc. Even when we look at the early history of the Christian faith, men and women of color helped lay the foundation of what we believe: Tertullian, Athanasius, and Augustine are great examples of this. Even African women: Perpetua and Felicitas, were martyred and their faithfulness has shined throughout the centuries. I believe the same is true for this game.
