Podcast appearances and mentions of Alpha Phi Alpha

This week hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum speak with the Mayor of Newark, Ras Baraka. The Mayor made headlines last Friday after he was arrested by ICE while protesting a new ICE detention facility in his home city. Mayor Baraka’s arrest comes in the context of Trump’s sprawling campaign of retribution against his “political enemies.” From law firms, to judges, to universities and elected officials–Trump is weaponizing the federal government against anyone he perceives to have wronged him. The legal attacks are often effective even if his administration doesn’t win the case… Today our hosts discuss government retaliation. The chilling effect of these attacks could have long term impacts on free speech, the application of justice, and our ability to govern. Mayor of Newark, New Jersey, Ras J. Baraka is a Newark native, poet, and educator. Under his leadership, Newark achieved a 60-year low in crime, replaced 23,000 lead service lines, and reduced homelessness by 57%. A member of Alpha Phi Alpha, Ras is a lifelong advocate for equity and opportunity. He’s now running a campaign for Governor of New Jersey.

For the first time in Now We Know's history, Donna & Jonathan have a two-peat guest: Thomas Polk. In March 2023, Donna & Jonathan interviewed Thomas (who happens to be Donna's dad) about his affiliation with Alpha Phi Alpha, Fraternity Incorporated. This episode is a continuation of that telling as the origin story. What prompted the discussion was the untimely passing of Caleb Wilson, a pledge of Omega Psi Phi, in Louisiana in February as a direct result of hazing. Hazing, a practice long withstanding time, has resulted in the tragic ending of too many young lives and negatively affected those around them. Does the potential cost of entry outweigh the benefits?

The RNC was exactly what you'd expect, so I thought I'd give you a recap with my own twist to make it far, faaarrrrr more interesting. That, and Alpha Phi Alpha, or as I'd like to call them, Alpha Phi Ashy, have decided to ban transgender members even though they themvselves (pun intended) exist because of historic and contemporary marginalization. Speaking of bans, MAGA intends to kill public access to the weather report. This has massive implications on all of our lives, from how many sweaters we need to pack to climate crises not being reported so billionaires can ensure their bottom line. Dial in w/ Janaya Future Khan.

His tales from international studies to brotherhood in Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity bring home the impact of a global perspective and the strength found in community. These experiences not only shaped his professional path but also provide a blueprint for growth that resonates with anyone seeking to make their mark in the world of sports or beyond. As he shares the core lessons of navigating the industry, the takeaways extend far beyond the classroom walls—they're life lessons in leadership, adaptability, and the pursuit of passion.Dr. Kelly's narrative culminates in a discussion about the 'personal board of directors,' a concept that revolutionizes the way we think about our support networks. He dismantles the myth of the underpaid professor, revealing the unexpected financial rewards that can come from a career in academia—when seasoned with a dash of consulting and a sprinkle of grants. His guidance on building genuine connections and the value of humility in learning from our missteps is both grounding and galvanizing. Join us for a masterclass in molding a career path that's as lucrative as it is fulfilling, led by a mentor who's walked the walk and is eager to share the map.

The Tom Ficklin Show: Alpha Phi Alpha At Yale by WNHH Community Radio

In August of 1956, during the Montgomery bus boycott, Dr. King addressed a gathering celebrating the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity in Buffalo, NY.  His speech came to be known as his “Birth of a New Age” address. In it, he said, “An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity.” Today, on this Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service, Tom interviews people for whom every day is a day of service. Their deep seeded passions are centered, as Dr. King said, in the broader concerns of humanity. Guests profiled today include: Matt Hanna, Executive Director of Next One Up Drs. Barbara Cook and Shakera Rahimi who assist Afghan refugee families Rev. Corey Barnes, Director of Operations for We Our Us Email us at midday@wypr.org, tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.

Charlton A. Holt is a native of Birmingham, Alabama, and an alum of Tennessee State University where he received his cum laude bachelor's degree in Business Information Systems. Charlton is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha, Beta Omicron Chapter. After graduation, Charlton worked 8 years as a Quality Assurance Engineer for a local Birmingham IT Consulting and Marketing company and was previous owner of Echo Lounge, before accepting a call into ministry in 2012. After attending Highlands College for ministry, Charlton moved to West Palm Beach to step on staff as a Pastor at Christ Fellowship. He started as a youth pastor and now works officially with what he calls “the big kids”. Prior to taking on the assignment of “the big kids”, Charlton served in the capacity of Student (Youth) Pastor for over 4 years. He has had the honor of presenting the gospel not only in the United States, but in countries such as Croatia, Honduras, Haiti, and Bolivia. Also, through his Christian leadership journey Charlton served as an overseer for Oasis Church, in Nashville, Tennessee. Charlton recently relocated back to Birmingham in October of 2022 and now serves as a Pastor at the Woodlawn location of Church of the Highlands. When asked about the theme of his life Charlton would entitle it “From the club to the church.” Charlton shares how the power of this theme is the manifestation of how GOD can completely change the trajectory of your life if you allow him through surrendering. Charlton always shares how he has a huge passion to see the lives of middle and high school students saved, redeemed, and transformed by the love and message of Jesus Christ. He is passionate about relationships, ministry, and physical health also. Charlton feels that GOD has created each of us uniquely. He feels that through our uniqueness we can impact the world. Charlton states that his major desire is to equip the body of Christ through the word of GOD, so that the body of Christ can meet the needs of the world. If you were to ask Charlton why he said yes to the call on his life, he would simply say, “Heaven and hell is real, whenever and whatever I can do to make the name of Jesus famous across the world I am willing to do.” He seeks to remind believers and nonbelievers that GOD is not limited to a prayer, nor is He focused on your sins alone. GOD desires your heart, that through salvation He can establish a relationship with you, and you can enjoy the gift of eternal life. Charlton is married to Allison and has 1 daughter named Charlotte who is the joy of his world. Charlton sums up life in a simple sentence, which is Matthew 6:33, “Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need”.

Lawrence C. Ross, Jr (Alpha Phi Alpha) - Bestselling author and lecturer. On this day back in 1911, Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Inc. was founded at Indiana University Bloomington – the third Greek organization to be created (after Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity and Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority). Since then, Greek organizations have continued to grow and become an integral part of college life for Blacks, particularly at Historically Black Colleges and Universities.

Hundreds of Gwinnett County kids had gifts to unwrap on Christmas morning because of one of the county's most famous sons. Rapper Offset, a Gwinnett native who rose to international fame as a member of Migos, held his first-ever toy giveaway at Central Baptist Church in Lawrenceville on Friday. This is the first Christmas since Offset's cousin and fellow Migos member, Takeoff, was killed in Houston nearly two months ago. The Toys For Nawf event offered kids a chance to get plenty of gifts, ranging from bikes and remote control cars to dolls and toy dinosaurs. Kids also got to play games, enjoy hot chocolate and other snacks and play in an inflatable obstacle course. Offset's efforts to help families enjoy Christmas did not go unnoticed by local leaders. Lawrenceville and Gwinnett County leaders presented proclamations to Offset, whose birth name is Kiari Cephus. A proclamation from the city of Atlanta was also presented to him. “(Migos) are our favorite sons,” county commission Chairwoman Nicole Love Hendrickson said. “They put Gwinnett County on the map, and when they talk about the ‘NAWF side,' they're talking about the suburbs of Gwinnett County. They're not talking about Atlanta. They're talking about Gwinnett. Several organizations, including Central Baptist Church, Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity and the Lawrenceville Boys and Girls Club, along with local government officials partnered with Offset to stage the event. On behalf of Georgia's 3,500 cotton farming families, the Georgia Cotton Commission recently donated 12,000 pairs of socks to various homeless shelters across the state. Farmers delivered socks to the Albany Rescue Mission, the Friends Ministry in Bainbridge, Lowndes Associated Ministries to People in Valdosta, the Southwest Georgia Housing Opportunities in Columbus, The Sparrow's Nest in Athens, Cedartown United Fund, the Rescue Mission of Middle Georgia in Macon, the Atlanta Mission, the CSRA Economic Opportunity Authority in Augusta, Fair Haven in Jesup, and the Homeless Authority in Savannah. The Georgia Cotton Commission is a producer-funded organization located in Perry. The commission began in 1965. Georgia cotton producers pay an assessment enabling the commission to invest in programs of research, promotion, and education on behalf of all cotton producers of Georgia. Eight boys basketball teams head to Buford City Arena this week for the inaugural Buford Classic. Half of the field is made up of Gwinnett teams with the host Wolves being joined by Archer, Shiloh and South Gwinnett. Carrollton, Sequoyah, Walnut Grove and West Forsyth also are in the field. Shiloh opens Wednesday's first round with a matchup against Sequoyah, followed by Archer (8-2, No. 8 in Class AAAAAAA) against West Forsyth at 4:30 p.m. The two late games Wednesday feature South (8-2) vs. Carrollton (9-1, No. 10 in AAAAAAA) at 6 p.m., and Buford (6-3) against Walnut Grove at 7:30 p.m. Play continues with four games Thursday — semifinals are 6 and 7:30 p.m. — followed by four more games Friday, highlighted by the 7:30 p.m. championship game. Gwinnett County officials are planning to seek federal grant funding to find a new way to reduce the amount of biosolids coming out of the F. Wayne Hill Water Resources Center by turning them into fertilizer. The Gwinnett County Department of Water Resources is applying for a $21.25 million grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Fertilizer Production Expansion Program. County officials plan to use the grant funds, if they are approved to receive it, to purchase a biosolids dryer for the water resources center, which treats and cleans wastewater before returning it to the county's water source, Lake Lanier. The center has done work in the past to extract as much waste as possible to be converted into other uses. The biosolids dryer would be used to convert biosolid waste to fertilizer instead of sending it to landfills. County officials said, in addition to buying the dryer, they will use the grant funds to develop a marketing plan to sell the fertilizer.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Day 11 Before T.I., before Jeezy, and before Lil Baby… For a city that thrives on “started from the bottom now I'm here” storylines, it makes sense that Atlanta's first Black millionaire was a barber named Alonzo. He didn't have a Morehouse degree, or an Alpha Phi Alpha pedigree like Sweet Auburn Avenue's favorite son, Martin Luther King Jr. What Alonzo lacked in formality, he made up for with a hustler's spirit. This is the story you didn't know. The story of the real A. The Story of Auburn Ave. The story of Alonzo who left his small town in Georgia on foot with $11 of savings and about a year of schooling. He emerged to help make Sweet Auburn Avenue “the richest Negro Street in the world.”

Waddup to all my Goonies from The Goon Squad…It's your Captain 1 Eyed Willie and I am here to bring you all Episode 8: Corporate Culture Feat. Desmond “The Plug” Thompson. Inside this episode Desmond pulled up to  The WORLDs iLLEST PODCAST to chop it up about what he does on the corporate side of the business/culture.  Desmond and I kick off the episode taking it back to his early days growing up in military household. Originally from a small town in North Carolina Desmond talks about his parent meeting at college back in the day. His dad on a basketball scholarship messed up early on in college so he left and joined the military, but always kept in touch with his mother who finished college and they ended up married. As they traveled the world, Desmond's and family eventually ended up at Fort Knox, KY.  While where Desmond would play sports and in the band but he  grew a love for music, (on a few mixtapes) fashion, writing, and of course shoes. After graduating high school Desmond had plans on attending Tennessee State University (HBCU) and play in their band but due to not making the SAT deadline Desmond would land at Western Kentucky University. It would be here where Desmond joined Alpha Phi Alpha, won the step show, became a member of Black Student Alliance and Amazing Tones on Joy. He would also release a dope track that exposed his pen game and skills as an emcee. After graduating Desmond would land a job back home working at Finish Line helping customers get fresh for all occasions. This is where he became “The Plug” helping people get in the dopest shoes that came out. Desmond worked his way up, became a store manager, and later moved to West Virginia to help revive a store in the mall. After being successful at that Desmond would later work in the corporate office as a buyer, where he became in charge of placing all the dope accessories in the store. After being with Finish Line for many years Desmond took a new job for Lids where he is connecting the dots and making things happen for fashion we see within the culture today. Tap in, press play, and listen as Desmond “The Plug” Thompson tells us his journey on the corporate side of the business so you can get a clearer vision through this conversation. Support the show
