A University of Arkansas at Little Rock graduate is leading the education and preservation of African American history in Arkansas through his work at the Mosaic Templars Cultural Center.
Brian Rodgers of Little Rock serves as the historian and community liaison at the Mosaic Templars Cultural Center, a Little Rock museum created to honor the story of the Mosaic Templars of America and the African American history in Arkansas.
“I love being a part of Mosaic,” Rodgers said. “I get to tell untold stories. I get to research African American history in the state and tell those stories to people who may not normally be exposed. I would always tell my groups that African American history is Arkansas history. It’s hard to extract one from another. The example I always give is the Little Rock desegregation crisis. It’s African American history and it’s Arkansas history. It’s just the perspective from which it is told that makes it different.”
