Ten Who Counted

Sometimes history misplaces or forgets important people who dreamed, fought, served, made changes in our lives, and affected history s path. In this exciting new collection/revue, we are introduced through story and song to tenAfrican Americans whose contributions to society, culture, our nation, and theworld should be celebrated and never forgotten. Included are: The Soldier Henry Johnson; The Activist A. Phillip Randolph; The Journalist John Russwurm; The Fighter Jack Johnson; The Singer Mamie Smith; The Film Maker Oscar Micheaux; The Politician P.B.S. Pinchback; The Preacher Adam Clayton Powell; The Entrepreneur Madame C.J. Walker; and The Explorer Matthew Alexander Henson. The narrative script is a terrific teaching tool, providing interesting facts and information about each person and his or her contributions. What a terrific presentation for African American History Monthcelebrations, and a valuable resource for multicultural and interdisciplinary studies!
