Betsy Phillips, a journalist and historian, is the author of the new book about three unsolved bombings by segregationists in the civil rights era, “Dynamite Nashville: Unmasking the FBI, the KKK, and the Bombers Beyond Their Control.” Phillips not only paints a detailed picture of the social dynamic of the times but reveals how a violent fringe of racists came to national prominence. In Dynamite Nashville, Phillips unmasks "The Confederate Underground," identifying its principal leader, J.B. Stoner, and shines a much-needed historical spotlight on unsung civil rights hero and near martyr Z. Alexander Looby.

In 1946, a violent uprising in Columbia, Tenn., led to national attention and a court case that historians say was the first time the legal system was used by Black defendants in the Civil Rights Movement. Then, in the late '50s and early '60s, three bombings in Nashville kicked off a nationwide campaign of violence in opposition to the movement.Today, we speak with historian and author Betsy Phillips about her new book, "Dynamite Nashville: Unmasking the FBI, the KKK, and the Bombers Beyond Their Control," which pieces together what really happened and who was involved in the three Nashville bombings. We'll also speak with historians Dr. Learotha Williams, Jr. and Linda Wynn about the most recent white supremacist march through downtown Nashville and the connection to the racially motivated violence of Nashville's past.GUESTS: Betsy Phillips | Historian and author, "Dynamite Nashville: Unmasking the FBI, the KKK, and the Bombers Beyond their Control" Dr. Learotha Williams, Jr. | Professor of African American and Public History at Tennessee State University; Coordinator of North Nashville Heritage Project Linda Wynn | Historian and co-founder, Nashville Conference on African American Culture & History; Assistant Director for State Programs, Tennessee Historical Commission; Former history professor at Fisk University Today's show was produced by Mary Mancini.

Now is the time to invest in yourself while creating a practice that you love and want to work in! I am so excited to welcome to the show Dr. Betsy Phillips, a general dentist and co-owner of a practice outside of Minneapolis. A couple of years ago, Betsy recognized that she needed to make some changes. With an overwhelming schedule and struggles of managing a practice, she was not making any time for herself. And adding to that, she had many self-limiting beliefs that were holding her back from making positive changes in several aspects of her life. Does this sound familiar? This episode tackles those concerns and shines a light on how adding a life coach can create amazing changes to your life and your practice immediately. As dentists, we all want what is best for our patients. And sometimes that comes from taking a step back and making time for ourselves. It has been an honor to connect with Betsy as a student and together develop the life she wants to live. Betsy discusses the changes she has made in her life and says, “I'm actually serving my patients better because I'm taking the time for me.” Are you ready to discover how you can feel empowered to take new actions within your practice and within your life? Listen now to learn how to enjoy your practice and enjoy your time at home, providing you the balance that you deserve and need… And hear about the wonderful opportunity you have to feel like you're a part of something, recognize there is nothing wrong with you and feel the support of other female practice owners. Take a positive step and listen now! Highlights from this episode: Recognizing the need for change when life seems overwhelming Defining buffering and how people resort to this practice How coaching helps overcome challenges Changing scheduling patterns and the power that comes from that Managing your mind to feel empowered Positive changes that come from coaching What it's like and the benefits from being in the Mastermind Group with other practice owners Resources and links mentioned: Dr. Katrina Ubell's podcast: Weight Loss for Busy Physicians Brooke Castillo's program: Self Coaching Scholars Watch Laura's podcasts on YouTube: Love Your Practice!

Slavery was so pervasive in Tennessee that the city of Nashville owned slaves. Host Allen Forkum (editor of The Nashville Retrospect newspaper) interviews historian Bill Carey about his book Runaways, Coffles and Fancy Girls: A History of Slavery in Tennessee. Using his survey of advertisements in Tennessee newspapers, Carey shows how slavery touched many aspect of everyday commerce and law, such as banks, newspapers, factories, courts and even taxpayers. The ads also provide personal details and descriptions of enslaved African-American individuals, and they reveal the cruelty of the human bondage, from the separation of mothers from their children, to the use of young girls as sex slaves. (Segment begins at 04:50) Nashville purchased 24 slaves in 1830 to work on construction projects for the city government, such as the water works. The next year, two of them, a married couple, escaped. The mayor of Nashville placed the above ad offering a reward for their capture. The ad appeared in the June 25, 1831, National Banner and Nashville Whig. (Image: Tennessee State Library and Archives) This ad offering a reward for a runaway slave was placed by slaveholder, and future president, Andrew Jackson in the Oct. 24, 1804, Tennessee Gazette. Jackson offered extra money for the slave to be beaten. (Image: Tennessee State Library and Archives) “Fancy girls” were young female slaves sold for sex. This advertisement by slave trader Rees W. Porter, who operated a slave mart in downtown Nashville, appeared in a March 20, 1856, Republican Banner. (Image: Tennessee State Library and Archives) Also hear Roots author Alex Haley speak to the Tennessee State Legislature in April 1977. In his speech, samples of which can be heard in this podcast, Haley announced that a new, 12-part TV mini-series was in production, following the success of the record-breaking Roots mini-series. The book and the TV show sparked a surge of interest in genealogical research. In this podcast, genealogist Taneya Koonce discusses her own connection to Roots and the challenges of African-American genealogical research. (Segment begins at 31:00) (Special thanks to Joel Dark) Alex Haley (right), author of Roots, speaks to the Tennessee State Legislature on April 5, 1977. Governor Ray Blanton is on the left. (Image: Nashville Public Library, Nashville Room, photo by Jack Gunter) Alex Haley signs autographs at Fisk University as part of a “Welcome Home Alex Haley” event on May 20, 1977. Haley was raised in Henning, Tenn. (Image: Nashville Public Library, Nashville Room, photo by Dean Dixon) Original caption from the May 21, 1977, Nashville Banner: “Keisha Rutland, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Rutland of Nashville, proudly displays Haley’s autograph [on a copy of his book Roots]. (Image: Nashville Public Library, Nashville Room, photo by Dean Dixon) Alex Haley speaks before a crowd of thousands at the Tennessee State University stadium on May 20, 1977, during a “Welcome Home Alex Haley” event. (Image: Nashville Public Library, Nashville Room) In the 1979 TV mini-series “Roots: The Next Generations,” the characters Jim and Carrie Warner were a fictionalized version of a real interracial couple in Henning, Tenn. Pictured above are Jim and Carrie Turner, and their sons, George, Hardin, and William. Nashville genealogist Taneya Koonce, who is interviewed in this podcast, researched the family, which you can read about here and here. (Image: Sharon Minor) And finally, Allen Forkum reviews some of the contents of the February 2019 issue, including a river catching fire in 1824 and Bigfoot sightings in 1979. As part of Black History Month, there are also articles about a new Ku Klux Klan headquartered in Nashville in 1919, and a personal account of life under slavery by a former Nashville slave.
