    Black History Year – PushBlack

    Learning your history makes you – and your people – stronger.

    As Black people, we know we’re often left out of the history books. That media images are skewed. That we need access to experts, information, and ideas so we can uplift our community.

    The Black History Year feed connects you to the history, thinkers, and activists that are usually excluded from mainstream conversations, through must-hear interviews and 2-Minute Black History stories. You might not agree with everything you hear, but we’re always working toward one goal: uniting for the best interests of Black people worldwide.

    BHY is produced by PushBlack, the nation’s largest non-profit Black media organization – contact us at BlackHistoryYear.com.

    The Systematic Miseducation of America with Dr. Noliwe Rooks Apr 15, 2025
    Show notes

    This week, we’re pulling back the curtain on public education in America—and asking if it was ever really meant for us in the first place.

    Dr. Noliwe Rooks, Brown University professor, author of "Cutting School" and founder of the term "segronomics," joins us to break down how Black communities have always fought for learning—even when the system fought back harder. From the broken promises of Brown v. Board to why Donald Trump's Department of Education might not be worth saving, this conversation challenges everything you thought you knew about education, liberation, and the law.

    To learn more, be sure to check out Dr. Noliwe's newest book, "Integrated: How American Schools Failed Black Children."

    Why Black Imagination Is A Blueprint of Liberation with adrienne maree brown Apr 08, 2025
    Show notes

    In this episode of Black History Year, host Darren sits down with adrienne maree brown to discuss how Black imagination has always shaped history—from Harriet Tubman’s vision of The Promised Land to Octavia Butler’s Earthseed philosophy.

    They’re breaking down the powerful ways Black folks have used imagination—not just to escape oppression, but to turn freedom dreams into homes, communities, and whole new worlds. How have generations of Black people turned their dreams of freedom into reality? What lessons from history push us to dream bigger about the future? And how do we make sure imagination isn’t just a dream—but something real?

    How Black Mourning and Communal Grief Keep Us Alive with Dr. Leslie T. Grover Apr 02, 2025
    Show notes

    This week, we're getting into the inherited, collective, and often unspoken legacy of Black grief.

    Joined by Dr. Leslie T. Grover, an award-winning author, activist, and scholar dedicated to historical storytelling as a tool for justice and healing, we look at everything from Maya Angelou's refusal to celebrate her birthday after MLK's assassination to age-old funerary traditions passed down through generations to understand that grief has always been bigger than sorrow for Black folks--it's how we honor, celebrate, and love our ancestors, each other, and ourselves.

    How Black Horror Helps Us Face American History with Professor John Jennings Mar 25, 2025
    Show notes

    This week, we’re diving into the real revolution happening in Black horror, from its roots in resistance folklore to today’s groundbreaking films.

    Joined by Hugo Award-winning and NYTimes best-selling writer and graphic novelist John Jennings, we’ll explore how scary stories expose systemic fears, why horror can be unexpectedly therapeutic, and how classic films like Night of the Living Dead, Get Out, and Beloved flip the script on the real monsters. Whether you love horror or avoid it completely, this conversation will change how you see the genre—and maybe even help you reframe your own fears.
