Listen "Dr. Khadijah Matin: "This is about the sacredness of human lives""
Episode Synopsis
Dr. Khadijah Matin was a child growing up in the 1960s in New York City. One of her child memories was going to the library so often that they told her "don't even bother to use your library card because you're going to bring the books right back". There she fell in love with history. In this episode Matin tells us how she was part of the movement for women to be able to wear pants to school in the city, and the struggle of her ancestor to protect the sacredness of African American lives. This interview was recorded at The Sugar Hill Children's Museum of Art and Storytelling in 2019 and the podcast was created by the Grandparents StoryLab.
