    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.

    Reconciling History As a Black Anarchist with Ashanti Alston Jan 02, 2023
    Show notes

    Today’s History Story — A Rallying Cry That Inspired Oppressed People Worldwide



    It was in Plainfield, NJ, in 1971 where our guest - Ashanti Alston - joined The Black Panther Party, radicalized in the wake of the 1967 Newark Riots and Malcolm X’s assassination years earlier. Ashanti would begin his life as an anarchist on that day, and it has guided his every step – through the Panther Party, then the Black Liberation Army, his incarceration, and his work honoring the sacrifice of political prisoners in the name of Black liberation with The Jericho Movement.




    Ashanti sits with us now with a 21st-century view of the impact of his radical brothers and sisters and the lessons learned from a lifetime of seeking Black liberation.

    Pulling Back the Curtain on Police Propaganda with Andrea Ritchie Dec 26, 2022
    Show notes

    Today’s History Story — They Exploited A Black Child For Copaganda



    Social media posts showing police officers posing with Black protestors or hugging young Black kids who appear openly afraid are promoted, often by police departments themselves, to show their officers in a positive light. This is an effort to counter negative narratives and aims to shape the public’s perception by painting cops as kind, friendly and heroic when the truth does not reflect this.




    Andrea Ritchie is here to tune our eyes and ears to catch this “copaganda” in practice and educate us on the alternatives baked in our ancestry. Ritchie is a police misconduct attorney and organizer whose writing, litigation, and advocacy have focused on policing and criminalization of women, especially LGBTQ women of color, who have been victims of police violence. She is the author of Invisible No More, a history of state violence against women of color, and co-author of No More Police: A Case for Abolition with Mariame Kaba.

    The Power of Creating Our Own Media with Maori Holmes Dec 19, 2022
    Show notes

    Today's History Story: She Refused To Play Their Racist Game



    The first great Black filmmaker Oscar Micheaux inspired the 70s revolution of urban dramas and comedies that served as the launchpad for the gritty hip-hop action pieces and soulful family romances of the 80s and 90s. Today, the Black experience is the face of billion-dollar movie franchises and multiple award-winning and groundbreaking series. Black people all around the globe are claiming the rights to our culture and our heritage and streaming our stories across the planet. Is this a Black Renaissance, or is it just dues being paid? Our guest, Maori Holmes, has thoughts on that and more.



    Maori Holmes is the founder and creative director of the Black Star Film Festival. BlackStar creates the spaces and resources needed to uplift the work of Black artists outside the confines of genre. They elevate artists who are overlooked, invisibilized, or misunderstood and celebrate the broad spectrum of aesthetics, storytelling, and experiences that they bring.

    This Powerful Rebellion Sent A Clear Message To Hollywood Dec 13, 2022

    Coons. Mammies. Jezebels. That’s how Hollywood wanted to paint us on the big screen. But one group of Black filmmakers refused to play nice. Would their ambitious rebellion defeat the ignorant portrayals of Black people?

    Building Better Labor Unions with Bianca Cunningham Dec 12, 2022
    Show notes

    Today’s History Story: White Americans Kept Unions Exclusive – But Black Workers Still Triumphed



    The right to earn a living wage under just and safe work conditions is as inalienable a right as our freedom of speech. Still, the history of Black people in the American labor movement is rooted in injustice. White supremacy has sought to keep Black workers from the best jobs, the most robust industries, and their sacred labor unions. However, today is a different day, as Black workers now occupy more seats at the labor union table than any other race or ethnicity in America.



    Here to help us explore this dramatic change is Bianca Cunningham, campaign director at The Action Center on Race & the Economy (ACRE), a non-profit that directly takes on the financial institutions and anti-democratic actors that are responsible for pillaging communities of color and poor families, subverting voting rights, and destroying our environment. She’s also the co-founder of the AfroSocialists and Socialists of Color Caucus of the Democratic Socialists of America. Bianca will share her story of unionizing her retail job, taking that first step towards reconfiguring the makeup of labor unions everywhere.
