Rita Fuller-Yates is a local Black Historian, Author, Professor, and Entrepreneur from Columbus, Ohio. She is working to establish black history tours nationwide, one city at a time, to create a voice for all cultures to learn the value of local black history, including the black community.
She believes people are disinterested in learning black history based on how it was narrated in the past and who was selected to share the story. As an educator, she recognized the need to create a storytelling business that helped to share factual history while removing the stigma of boredom often experienced when learning black history.
Fuller-Yates has traveled the globe to speak to countless young people and to share the importance of knowing their local black history and DNA. She uses research and past stories to support the incorrect notion that all black people come from slavery and to change the narrative of how black history is taught.
