Truth, Knowledge – Ukweli
As a writer and Charleston native, Herb Frazier believes that spreading ukweli – the Swahili word for truth – about the Black experience is the only path to racial healing.
For the last two years, he’s been spreading Ukweli through talks at colleges, churches, libraries and civic organizations across South Carolina.
What he’s witnessed is that audiences become more sympathetic and less resistant to social change once they learn the truth about what it means to be a Black person in America today
