Rooted in rigorous historical research and brought to life through visuals and narration, the film delves into the enduring influence of Garnet, an abolitionist and preacher who became the first African American to give a sermon to Congress, and Johnson, a pioneering pastor and civil rights architect whose work helped lay the groundwork for 20th-century Black activism.
