## Resource

What happens when a people labeled as "savages" discover they were always a people of promise? In this powerful conversation, author Jocelyn D. Whitehead returns to People of Distinction to break down her groundbreaking book Savages, Apes, or People of Promise: A Biblical Study of Black Ancestry — dismantling centuries of lies about identity, spirituality, and heritage through a bold biblical lens. This is the conversation that gets whispered in kitchens but never spoken into microphones — until now.
