Kareem Abdul-Jabbar
Listen to "Kareem Abdul Jabbar From The History Channel's Black Patriots Heroes Of The Revolution" on Spreaker.
Often forgotten in history, many people don’t know that African Americans played an integral role in the fight for our county’s independence. Anchored by sit down interviews with Abdul-Jabbar as well as numerous esteemed historians and supported with archival material, “Black Patriots: Heroes of the Revolution” will cover both sides of the fight, highlighting black heroes of the American Revolution who stood up against British rule to help establish the United States of America, and, conversely, black loyalists who fought for the Crown – and the promise of freedom. The documentary will also present Abdul-Jabbar’s personal journey, revealing his own unique discovery of important historical figures like Crispus Attucks and others and how they helped change the perception of his own heritage.
