Ep. 43 Faith, Freedom, and Forgotten History | Black Patriots in American History

In this powerful episode of The Patriots Revival Podcast, host Melody Allen leads an insightful panel discussion with guests Marcus Henry, Betty Gray, Jason Southerland, and RaShell Southerland. Together, they uncover the often-overlooked contributions of black patriots during the American Revolution and beyond, shedding light on historical figures who played vital roles in shaping America’s fight for freedom.

The panel dives deep into the stories of James Armistead Lafayette, a slave-turned-spy whose intelligence helped secure victory at Yorktown, as well as Peter Salem, Prince Whipple, Wentworth Cheswell, and the Rhode Island Fighters—all black patriots who made significant sacrifices but have been erased from mainstream history.

Beyond history, the conversation takes a hard look at how progressive politics, single-parent households, and the lack of historical education have impacted the black community today. The panel also discusses the dangers of historical revisionism, the erasure of black contributions by figures like Woodrow Wilson, and the importance of grassroots efforts like Blexit and Patriot’s Hope in restoring historical truth.

Key Discussion Points:

✅ The erasure of black patriots from history and why it happened.
