At the turn of the twentieth century, the Black press provided a blueprint to help Black Americans transition from slavery and find opportunities to advance and define African American citizenship. Among the vanguard of the Black press was Jefferson Lewis Edmonds, founder and editor of The Liberator newspaper. His Los Angeles-based newspaper championed for women's rights, land and business ownership, education, and civic engagement, while condemning lynchings and other violent acts against African Americans. It encouraged readers to move westward and build new communities, and it printed stories about weddings and graduations as a testament to the lives and moments not chronicled in the White-owned press. Edmonds took this fierce perspective in his career as a journalist, for he himself was born into slavery and dedicated his life to creating pathways of liberation for those who came after him. Across the pages of his newspaper, Edmonds painted a different perspective on Black life in America and championed for his community--from highlighting the important work of his contemporaries, including Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Du Bois, to helping local readers find love in the personal ads section. The Liberator, along with a chorus of Black newspapers at the turn of the century, educated an entire generation on how to guard their rights and take claim of their new American citizenship. Written by Jefferson Lewis Edmonds' great-great granddaughter, We Now Belong to Ourselves: J. L. Edmonds, the Black Press, and Black Citizenship in America (Oxford University Press, 2025) chronicles how Edmonds and other pioneering Black publishers documented the shifting tides in the advancement of Black liberation. Arianne Edmonds argues that the Black press was central in transforming Black Americans' communication patterns, constructing national resistance networks, and defining Black citizenship after Reconstruction--a vision, mission, and spirit that persists today through Black online social movements. Weaving together poetry, personal narrative, newspaper clips, and documents from the Edmonds family archive, We Now Belong to Ourselves illustrates how Edmonds used his platform to center Black joy, Black triumph, and radical Black acceptance. Arianne Edmonds is a 5th generation Angeleno, archivist, civic leader, and founder of the J.L. Edmonds Project, an initiative dedicated to preserving the history and culture of the Black American West. She is currently a Senior Civic Media Fellow at the USC Annenberg School for Communication and Journalism funded by the MacArthur Foundation and a Commissioner for the Los Angeles Public Library.

This week on Stoppage Time with Uncle Rob, we take a breath—together.In a moment of deep personal reflection and civic unrest here in Los Angeles, I found grounding and perspective through an extraordinary conversation with Councilmember Nithya Raman—an advocate, a leader, and the first South Asian woman elected to LA's City Council in its 245-year history.This episode of Entrepreneurial Thinkers dives into some of the most pressing issues facing our city—homelessness, housing, climate change—and the broader implications of how we govern, how we show up for our neighbors, and how we define community. What stood out to me most was the call for more patience, perspective, and humanity—especially in moments of crisis.We recorded this conversation just before ICE raids and peaceful protests reshaped the mood of our city. Though those events weren't discussed in the episode, their shadows linger over every word. And as someone who participated in the protests, I bring that energy into this moment—with pride, concern, and a deep sense of civic responsibility.This isn't just a conversation about policy—it's about who we are, and who we aspire to be.As an Angeleno, a Californian, and a proud American, I believe we can do better. This episode is a reminder of that belief.Watch, listen, reflect—and let's move forward together.#StoppageTimeWithUncleRob #EntrepreneurialThinkers #NithyaRaman #LosAngeles #CivicEngagement

Host Joanne Higgins worked in film and TV production for 13 years as a production coordinator and associate producer. Later, she transitioned into the construction industry, co-owning a company that developed and built single-family homes across LA. She's a lifelong Angeleno, growing up in Compton and attending Cal State Long Beach. She spent her childhood hearing her godfather talk about working on the Apollo program. Concerned that this unique legacy could be forgotten, she began a journey to record and capture their experiences as a first-time podcast host.

In this episode of Clocking Out, we meet Lynne Thompson — a former lawyer who spent over 20 years in the legal world before answering a call that had echoed since childhood: poetry. Lynne pivoted from litigation to literature, ultimately becoming Los Angeles' 4th Poet Laureate, a nationally recognized advocate for the power of poetry, and the author of four acclaimed collections, including Blue on a Blue Palette.A native Angeleno and daughter of Caribbean immigrants, Lynne grew up in where books, education, and ambition mattered — and she never let her four older brothers outpace her. Though she began writing at a young age, she followed a practical path, becoming a successful lawyer. Yet even with a full career, something was missing. She realized the law was feeding her head, not her heart. Seeking more space to create, she transitioned to lead labor and employee relations at UCLA — a demanding role, but one that gave her room to pursue poetry more intentionally. After 20 years, she took early retirement to fully commit to her passion.Lynne shares how she found her way back to poetry, how she transitioned with purpose (and a plan), and how her background in law shaped both her voice and her empathy as a writer. Without an MFA or literature degree, she gave herself permission to pursue the creative life she'd long imagined — immersing herself in workshops, readings, and writing groups to build a second career on her own terms. Along the way, she became not just a poet, but a literary leader: serving on the boards of major institutions, publishing widely, mentoring emerging voices, and proving that it's never too late to follow the path that calls to you.This episode is a powerful reminder that your passions don't expire — and that it's never too late to write your own next chapter.

Sara Watkins joins Basic Folk to talk about 'Wild and Clear and Blue,' the new album from I'm With Her, her band with Sarah Jarosz and Aoife O'Donovan. The new LP was inspired by looking back on your life in order to move forward, with a very witchy manner of speaking that encompasses the ancient, mysterious, and spiritual. Sara shares insights into the unique telepathic connection they feel within the band, which was palpable from their first public appearance in 2014. Watkins is at it again with her incredible vocal performances on this album, bringing to mind Fiona Apple – especially on the "Sisters of the Night Watch."A longtime Angeleno, Sara gets into the meaning of another song, “Standing on the Fault Line,” which finds her reconsidering what's safe, what's permanent, and what is essential in order to remain in California. She also explains how the group's tight-knit sisterhood and collaborative efforts have strengthened over the years. Elsewhere, we also talk about the meaning of a "supergroup" versus a cohesive band, artistic processes, and how personal history and motherhood have impacted their music. Additionally, we explore the challenges of balancing life on tour, the importance of small talk, the necessity of doing music as a hobby for personal fulfillment, and the massive annual band party that inspired "Year After Year."

In this episode, you'll learn about an incredibly relevant topic: the connection between art, creativity, and climate change.Today, host Scott “Sourdough” Power highlights the staggering impact of recent climate disasters on creative communities in Los Angeles and Asheville, North Carolina. When Hurricane Helene swept through Western North Carolina last September, it displaced hundreds of artists and flattened key creative spaces across 25 counties. As Scott explores the history of climate disaster, he also tackles the common but false belief that some places, like the Appalachian Mountains, are safe from its impacts. It's a stark reminder that climate change doesn't play favorites—it affects everyone, regardless of background.Our conversation also touches on the Palisades and Eaton fires, two of the deadliest and most destructive wildfires in California history. An Angeleno himself, Scott witnessed firsthand how a trifecta of fire-friendly climate conditions turned entire neighborhoods into heaps of ash and soot this past January. While he stresses the importance of moving from passive observation to active engagement, Scott also celebrates the resilience of these communities in overcoming challenges through creativity. Ultimately, this episode emphasizes that creativity isn't just about reflecting what's happening around us; it's also a powerful way to imagine and work towards a more sustainable future.ArtsvilleUSAFirst Friday ExhibitionsNOT REAL ARTNOT REAL ART SchoolRemote: A Video Series Exploring Public ArtScott “Sourdough” PowerFor more information, please visit https://notrealart.com/creativity-and-climate-change

Trevor Larcom talks growing up on "Fresh Off The Boat", working with Colin Farrell, learning how to transition his career from child acting, and shares an audition story with puppies, a resort, and a long drive! About Trevor: Twenty year old actor, Trevor Larcom, is a third generation Angeleno. Trevor has older siblings who have helped contribute to his varied life experiences. His eldest brother, a librarian and real estate agent, sparked Trevor's interest in research and investments. His redheaded sister, an artist and activist, taught Trevor to have an open mind and heart. His other brother gifted him with his first set of golf clubs which kickstarted his great passion for golf. His parents have encouraged Trevor in his varied pursuits. From his dad, he acquired his love for the great outdoors and sports. From his mom, he learned responsibility and resourcefulness.  Trevor's acting career started after his mom's friend encouraged his parents to try it out because of his red hair, energy and outgoing personality. He booked his first national commercial for Target when he was six years old. This was followed immediately by another commercial booking obliging him to become a union member at six. After many commercial jobs, Trevor booked his first theatrical role on House, M.D. This role called for punching a birthday clown in his privates!  By age nine, Trevor snatched a role in a pilot that went to series, the popularized Fresh Off the Boat. Trevor filmed over seventy episodes of this ABC series that takes place in the 90's. Trevor has many fond memories of the years he worked on the show. One of his other favorite acting experiences was when he played Colin Farrell's son on True Detective. He acquired an international fan base for this role. Besides golf, Trevor enjoys going to the gym, cooking healthy meals, and listening to country and rap music. Trevor attended a Christian elementary school, and always places trust and faith in God.  Trevor is proud to be a member of the indie film, Happy Endings Funeral Parlor cast. Filmed on location in rural Iowa, he enjoyed the experience both off and on set. He is looking forward to attending the film festivals.  Follow the show on social media!          Instagram: https://instagram.com/thanksforcominginpodcast/          Twitter: https://twitter.com/tfci_podcast          Facebook: http://facebook.com/thanksforcominginpodcast/           Patreon: patreon.com/thanksforcomingin YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXj8Rb1bEmhufSBFSCyp4JQ Theme Music by Andrew Skrabutenas Producers: Jillian Clare & Susan Bernhardt Channel: Realm For more information, go to thanksforcominginpodcast.com  Learn more about your ad choices.

"I have never been so happy to see a film flop at the box office," host Neal Pollack says of 'Joker: Folie a Deux,' which he discusses on this week's podcast with film critic Stephen Garrett. Stephen is a little kinder to the film than Neal is, but he agrees that not much in this movie works. Neal finds the courtroom sequences boring and cliched, the musical sequences uninspired, and the dark romance completely incompetent and unbelievable. Both Neal and Stephen agree that this deeply unpleasant movie deserves everything that's coming to it, and that Joaquin Phoenix can't sing even if Lady Gaga can. Todd Phillips should go straight to movie jail for this crime against cinema. So sayeth we.Rabbi Pollack (not an actual rabbi) invites Rebecca Kurson on the podcast to talk about 'Nobody Wants This,' the Netflix sitcom about a sex podcaster, played by Kristen Bell, who falls for a Jewish rabbi, played by Adam Brody. Boy, did Becky hate this show. It depicts a Judaism where no one talks about October 7, Israel, or the Holocaust. Neal argues that this is a Netflix sitcom about a sex podcaster so no one wants to hear characters talk about those things. Fair enough, Becky says, but this is still a morally questionable show about horrible people who don't deserve love. Neal just likes watching Brody and Justine Lupe, who plays Kristen Bell's sister, and also feels like it is a somewhat accurate depiction of a certain type of bourgeois Angeleno who he knows too well. This show does not hate Jews, Neal concludes. Maybe it's just kind of dumb.It is a contentious week on the BFG podcast! Give us a listen and find out why host Neal Pollack calls it "the number 4 rated entertainment news podcast in The Gambia."

47 days to go until election day .   On today's Countdown 2024 we're turning to local politics:  one week ago, we talked with embattled LA City Councilman Kevin de Leon.  Today, we're talking with the woman looking to unseat him ... Ysabel Jurado. But first----a quick spin around the political world: We may be on the verge of a shakeup in the race for governor of North Carolina.  Republican candidate Mark Robinson is facing pressure from fellow Republicans and the Trump campaign to leave the race in the key swing-state. This because of a damning scandal involving several inflammatory comments ... of a sexual nature ... that Robinson allegedly made on a pornographic website's message board as being reported by CNN. Robinson has said he's staying in the race and has denied making the comments, calling the story "tabloid trash". The  so-called Uncommitted Movement ... which sprang from  organizing efforts to get people to vote "uncommitted” in Democratic primaries to  protest  the Biden administration's handling of the Israel-Gaza war ... says it will NOT be endorsing Kamala Harris for president ... even though the group opposes Donald Trump. This could have major reverberations in a swing state like Michigan. Thousands of Arab American voters there remain disenchanted over Kamala Harris's refusal to support an arms embargo against Israel. Division within the powerful Teamsters Union. Yesterday, the union said it will not be endorsing either Trump or Harris. But several local Teamster councils went ahead and endorsed Harris on their own. That includes the West Coast Teamsters with some 300 thousand members right here in California. Ysabel Jurado is a relative political unknown ... going up against one of the most experienced and established politicians in Southern California.  But that didn't stop Jurado from upsetting the scandal-plagued Kevin de Leon in the primary. Jurado describes herself as a "tenants rights attorney, affordable housing activist, single mom, daughter of undocumented Filipino immigrants, and a lifelong Angeleno" ... and she joins us today on Countdown 2024.
