A haven for Black intellectuals, artists and revolutionaries—and path of promise toward the American dream—Black colleges and universities have educated the architects of freedom movements and cultivated leaders in every field. They have been unapologetically Black for 150 years. For the first time ever, their story is told.
Unfortunately the movie Tell Them We Are Rising: The Story of Black Colleges and Universities is not yet available on HBO Max.
