Over the course of just one year in the early 1840s, Thomas Smallwood, a recently emancipated Black man, with the assistance of the New England educated white abolitionist Charles Torrey, arranged for around 400 enslaved people to escape the Baltimore and DC area for freedom in Canada. While the abolition movement was still debating the best path forward, Smallwood and Torrey put their beliefs into action, establishing the Underground Railroad, and using the press to taunt the slaveowners whose enslaved people they freed. Joining me in this episode to discuss Thomas Smallwood, Charles Torrey, and the Underground Railroad, is journalist Scott Shane, author of Flee North: A Forgotten Hero and the Fight for Freedom in Slavery's Borderland.

Today, The Two Mikes hosted Dr. James F. Pastor to learn about his book, Yoo Say You Want a Revolution? Radical Idealism and Its Tragic Consequences (available at Amazon). Dr. Pastor started his working life in a Chicago police tactical unit and worked his way through what was then called "Night School" to become a PhD and a lawyer. In his book, Dr. Pastor discusses the often unacknowledged dangers to society and civil order that are posed by the words and actions of aggressive ideologues, people who today are more commonly known as progressives.Today's progressives are just this kind of threat, and the danger they pose is strengthened by their nearly complete ignorance of the trials, economic disasters, civil and world wars that this country's formation had to cope with and overcome to become a functioning constitutional republic. There is much that the progressives' beliefs owe to Marxism and Saul Alinsky, such as their belief that, in the area crime, that crime in society is not the fault of the actions of an individual or a group of individuals, but is rather the fault of a corrupt political/social system that needs to be destroyed by revolution.In turn, "defunding" the police is a prominent step toward the violent revolution for which the progressives ache.

I'm concerned. Our culture is continuing to be exploited, but what are we receiving in return? Also, why are we playing a part in giving our culture away, while also sullying one another for likes, views and shares? We are playing an active part in the degradation of our culture, but is the financial gain and faux popularity worth it? Should we be gatekeeping black culture?

In this episode of Everyday Conversations on Race, host Simma Lieberman, The Inclusionist, invites Dr. Lonny Avi Brooks, a professor of communication and Afrofuturism, to discuss his unique background as a Jewish, Black, and Native American individual. Avi and Simma explore the intersectionality of race and religion considering recent conversations on anti-Semitism and racism. The conversation also delves into the concept of Afrofuturism and its significance. Tune in to gain insights and engage in an Everyday Conversation on Race.   Dr. Lonny Avi Brooks emphasizes the importance of acknowledging and respecting the rich cultures and dignities of others for personal growth and self-understanding. When you disregard or suppress someone else's culture, you limit your own potential for a fulfilling life. He shares what it means to him to be Black, Jewish, and Native American in his everyday life and the impact it has had on his relationships, and the actions he has taken to eliminate racism, antisemitism, and all forms of hate. He recounts his earliest memories of going to synagogue with his brother and how he integrates and loves who he is today. Lonny Avi Brooks is busy traveling and speaking on Afrofuturism, is active in synagogue and Jewish life, as well as involved in Native American communities.   Key Points in this episode: • Recognizing and appreciating diverse cultures, allows individuals to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them. • How systemic oppression, crime, and homelessness are all results of a lack of understanding and respect for differences and denial of opportunities and inequality. By disrespecting and trivializing other cultures, people who subscribe covertly or overtly to white supremacist culture not only harm others but also hinder their own growth and understanding of the world. • Experience of being Black and Jewish in a mostly white Jewish synagogue • Dismantling the myth that all Jewish people are white and looking at the depth,  complexities, and similarities amongst Jewish people across the world.  • How Afrofuturism serves to preserve and expand Black culture. Guerrilla tactics are used to showcase the existence, power, and potential of Black people. By appreciating and valuing the culture and history of others, individuals, both Black and non-Black, can contribute to a more inclusive and equitable society.  • Why acknowledging and respecting the rich cultures and dignities of others is not only essential for personal growth and self-understanding but also for creating a more just and harmonious society. • The way that Afrofuturism and other futurisms empower individuals and communities by fostering self-esteem, creativity, and innovation.  • Why it's essential that all individuals know their own history and cultural background to have a sense of identity and motivation that will guide their success. Afrofuturism, along with Indigenous Futurism, queer futurism, Jewish Futurism, and Arab Futurism, provides diverse visions of the future that inspire and empower young people.  • When people know where they come from. their history and the contributions of "their peoples," it encourages them to be more self-confident and creative.  • Why Afrofuturism plays an important role in reclaiming lost cultural heritage erased by colonialism. By leveraging the past and projecting it into the future, Afrofuturism allows individuals and communities to preserve their cultural heritage while envisioning new possibilities. This process is particularly important in the face of attempts to erase the history of Black people.  • The crisis in the US with some state governments and school boards, eliminating African American history from their curriculum. They are "rewriting American history," even claiming that there was "personal benefit from slavery for enslaved people."  • Futurism movements offer diverse visions of the future that represent marginalized communities and encourage individuals to make a difference for themselves and their own groups.  • Why it is essential that people engage in conversations about race and antisemitism, and other "isms" to break down barriers and promote understanding between people of different racial backgrounds.  • Why Octavia Butler, Afrofuturism, Black Panthers. Greenwood, Tulsa, “The Watchman” are all important. • Simma Lieberman acknowledges that many individuals may feel hesitant or afraid to have these conversations due to the fear of saying the wrong thing, feeling attacked, or being ignored or trivialized. However, this podcast, Everyday Conversations on Race for Everyday People, aims to create a safe space for these conversations, encouraging listeners to overcome their fears and engage in dialogue.   To learn more: • Attend conferences and events that focus on race, such as Afrofuturism or Afrocomiccon. By participating in these gatherings, individuals can engage in conversations about race, learn from experts in the field, and broaden their understanding of different racial experiences. • Read histories of African Americans, Africa, Judaism, racism, antisemitism, and indigenous history. • Learn about intersectionality across race, culture, and other differences.   Timestamps [00:01:05] Afrofuturism and identity/ Jewish, Black, and Native American [00:04:55] Multicultural identity and cultural questioning.  [00:09:38] Mishap at the synagogue with Avi Brooks and his brother [00:15:06] Hebrew school and re-envisioning inclusivity.

Part historical exploration, part travel memoir, Beyond the Shores: A History of African Americans Abroad (Crown, 2023) reveals poignant histories of a diverse group of African Americans who have left the United States over the course of the past century. Together, the interwoven stories highlight African Americans' complicated relationship to the United States and the world at large. Beyond the Shores is not just about where African Americans stayed or where they ate when they traveled but also about why they left in the first place and how they were treated once they reached their destinations.  Drawing on years of research, Dr. Tamara J. Walker chronicles their experiences in atmospheric detail, taking readers from well-known capital cities to more unusual destinations like Yangiyul, Uzbekistan, and Kabondo, Kenya. She follows Florence Mills, the would-be Josephine Baker of her day, in Paris, and Richard Wright, the author turned actor and filmmaker, in Buenos Aires. She relays tender stories of adventurous travelers, including a group of gifted Black crop scientists in the 1930s, a housewife searching for purpose in the 1950s, a Peace Corps volunteer discovering his identity in the 1970s, and her own grandfather, who, after losing his eye fighting in World War II and returning to a country that showed no signs of honoring his sacrifice, set out with his wife and children on a circuitous journey that sent them back and forth across the Atlantic. Tying these tales together is Walker's personal account of her family's, and her own, experiences abroad—in France, Brazil, Argentina, Austria, and beyond. By sharing the accounts of those who escaped the racism of the United States to try their hands at life abroad, Beyond the Shores shines a light on the meaning of home and the search for a better life. Tamara J. Walker is a historian and associate professor of Africana Studies at Barnard College of Columbia University, where her research and teaching focus on the history of slavery and freedom in Latin America. Her first book, Exquisite Slaves: Race, Clothing, and Status in Colonial Lima, won the Harriet Tubman Prize awarded by the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture. Reighan Gillam is an Associate Professor in the Department of Latin American, Latino, and Caribbean Studies at Dartmouth College. Her research examines the ways in which Afro-Brazilian media producers foment anti-racist visual politics through their image creation. She is the author of Visualizing Black Lives: Ownership and Control in Afro-Brazilian Media (University of Illinois Press).  Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, Authentically Detroit sat down with David Alade, Co-Founder and CEO of Century Partners. Donna, Orlando, and David talk about the housing affordability crisis in Detroit and how we can address it. As CEO of Century Partners, David is committed to community, legacy, and purpose with a dedication to building a culture of sustainable excellence. Last week, his article in Crain's Detroit, “Opinion: Now is the time to equitably address Detroit's housing deficiencies,” ruffled a few feathers throughout the city. With affordability in the housing market decreasing and the amount of funding available to address this increasing, David believes these funds should be put to good use. For more information about David and Century Partners, click here.FOR HOT TAKES:DETROIT AMONG MOST IMPACTED CITIES IN THE COUNTRY FOR THE URBAN HEAT ISLAND EFFECT STATE REGULATORS APPROVE SETTLEMENT IN DTE'S ENERGY PLAN.

The subject of this episode is ‘Recapturing Black Culture' and I and Erica Caines have a great discussion. Erica Caines is a poet, writer and organizer in Baltimore and the DMV. She is an organizing committee member of the anti war coalition, the Black Alliance For Peace as well as an outreach member of the Black centered Ujima People's Progress Party. Caines founded Liberation Through Reading in 2017 as a way to provide Black children with books that represent them and created the extension, a book club entitled Liberation Through Reading BC, to strengthen political education online and in our communities. “Understanding yourself as African is a political objective/position,” says Erica.  Erica asks pertinent questions around the subject, namely: What is black culture? Who defines what black culture is?  Our conversation is based on an article Erica penned for the Hood Communist bearing the same title - ‘Recapturing Black Culture.' You can find the article at:https://hoodcommunist.org/2023/06/15/recapturing-black-culture/  Find Erica on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/erica.caines --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mpilo-nkambule/support
