Heritage Hour
Heritage Hour is a monthly educational session hosted by the I Am Black (IAB) Ministry, where members explore key topics related to Pan-Africanism, Christianity, and social justice. Each session features a researched presentation by a member, followed by an engaging discussion. The goal is to deepen our understanding of our collective heritage, inspire dialogue, and foster a stronger connection between our faith and cultural identity. Through these conversations, we aim to reconnect, renew, and reform our communities. Join us as we journey through history and faith together.
