About this listen

Ms. Audrey Williams took the curriculum into her own hands as a teacher in Hampton City Schools in the 1970s. As a social studies teacher, she made sure her students knew that Black history was American history. She also made sure to bring her students into the community and teach them about local black history. From the first enslaved Africans in 1619 to the Underground Railroad sites in Hampton Roads.
