187. History is Today: Reclaiming Identity and Truth with Addi Banks

Send us Fan Mail History is Today: Reclaiming Identity and Truth with Addi Banks Ep.187 In this deeply powerful episode of the Every.Black 90 Day Wins Entrepreneur of Excellence series, Coach SandyB sits down with Black history educator and advocate Addi Banks for a conversation that is both awakening and healing. Addi shares why, in her retirement years, she chose to dedicate her life to teaching Black American history and why understanding our past is not optional. It is foundational. Through powerful stories, quotes from Marcus Garvey and Carter G. Woodson, and real-life examples like sundown towns and The Green Book, Addie reminds us that history is not behind us. It is shaping how we move today. This episode challenges listeners to stop treating Black history as a seasonal topic and start seeing it as survival knowledge, identity work, and legacy preservation. Addi also shares her 90-day goal to grow her Know Black History Patreon community, a platform built from years of research covering Black business, innovation, state histories, and overlooked pioneers whose stories deserve to be known. For just $5 a month, listeners can support this mission and invest in knowledge that strengthens families, sharpens awareness, and builds confidence rooted in truth. If you have ever asked, “Who am I?” or wondered why history feels disconnected from your life, this conversation will shift your perspective. History is not yesterday. History is today.
