Posted by: Jeffrey Thomas DeSocio, Digital News Editor / Producer -
As Black History Month wraps up, we're reminded of the struggles that African Americans have endured over the years…one man who has been through it all is John M. Perkins.
Perkins was an outspoken activist in the civil rights movement and experienced racism firsthand. He was harassed, beaten, and thrown in jail while fighting for equality...but kept his faith and has been a minister for almost 50 years.
He was here with Art Gray to talk more about this.
