Seed of the day: "Narratives of Blackness: How We Identify Individually & Collectively as Black People and the Importance of Sharing Our Stories."

Through this conversation we were hoping to spark dialogue, encourage others to think of their own journey of identity, and challenge all to listen to and respect the differences between us and the similarities we share as Black Americans in today's world. We referenced an excerpt from the book "Who is Black? One Nation's Definition" by author and retired professor Floyd James Davis. We also highlighted the books, "Dreams of My Father" (Barack Obama), "Souls of Black Folk" (W.E.B.
