Iowa Griot
What is a griot?
A griot (pronounced gree-oh) is the member of the group who keeps
the history. The griot knows where the group has been, and thus
where it is going.
The Iowa Griot, in the tradition of the African Griot, endeavors
to keep our history alive, so that, by knowing our past, we will
make our future better. The Iowa Griot is the membership newsletter
of the African American Historical Museum and Cultural Center
of Iowa.
