12 Days of Gifts: For the Culturally-Connected

These gifts are certain to provide more education and resolve for the culturally aware, capable and conscious in your life!

The African-Americans: Many Rivers to Cross Book. $34.95




If you missed this PBS special that recently aired this past October and November, you can gift the book version of the TV special. Brought to us by the brilliant Henry Louis Gates, Jr., the book chronicles the struggles of Africans and African-Americans from 1500 to the present. 

2. Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee. $13



The above is a non-fiction account of a member of the indigenous people who were here long before Columbus any other European explorer. Heavily regarded as impactful and emotional, the culturally aware and inept in your life may need to be ready to re-learn history as presented to them in school.

3. Made by Survivors jewelry. Starting at $10.
