Bob Woodson is the founder and President of the Woodson Center, which recently started the 1776 Unites initiative.

He is a black conservative christian who was active in the civil rights movement of the 1960s during the time of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., and he points out that while the movement originally pushed for integration and inclusion he became disenchanted to see the Left hijack the movement in a different and divisive direction towards socialism.

Per the Woodson Center website:

“1776” is an assembly of independent voices who uphold our country’s authentic founding virtues and values and challenge those who assert America is forever defined by its past failures, such as slavery. We seek to offer alternative perspectives that celebrate the progress America has made on delivering its promise of equality and opportunity and highlight the resilience of its people. Our focus is on solving problems. We do this in the spirit of 1776, the date of America’s true founding.

I caught an interview with Mr. Woodson over the weekend and I was so impressed with his message and the eloquence in which he delivers it that I thought it was worth sharing.

Jeff Crank Show interview with Bob Woodson-click on the 6-13-20 podcast and the 32 minute long interview begins at the 40 minute mark. A portion of the audio quality gets bad but it clears up after a few seconds.

(note: the website doesn't archive past shows for very long so I would guess that the interview won't be available for more than a week or two.)

The Woodson Center- 1776 Unites project


Several months earlier there was a forum thread discussion of the 1619 Project, and it is good to see that groups like the Woodson Center and the 1776 Unites initiative are pushing back against a patently wrong divisive message.
