As we close the final day of Blackest History Month, the governments of the United States and Israel have declared war on Iran, an action that casts both countries as pariah states and threatens the lives and security of everyone in those three countries and beyond. At the same time, doomed efforts by predatory monied interests to shape and control mass media narratives and images are intensifying. Filmmaker Haile Gerima has described narratives as scalpels that cut into the center of our minds and consciousness. The struggle of liberation-oriented Governance formations against an increasingly fragile contemporary global Social Structure, then, is first and foremost, a clash between forces determined to reduce humanity to servitude and people who refuse to submit. What happens when increasingly desperate would-be masters can no longer control those they seek to dominate?Are you a member of Knarrative?

This is the powerful message I took away from my conversation with Milton Bowens, the fine artist behind Milton 510 Studio. Milton's work doesn't just depict history—it reimagines it as a living, breathing force that connects the past, present, and future.Milton shared how his art draws inspiration from Black history and pop culture to create a unique, layered narrative. “I chose history,” Milton explained, “because I always wanted to be able to just have something that I could reference that would re-energize or re-spark my creative curiosity.” His work focuses on centering the African-American experience, blending historical elements with vibrant colors and textures in his mixed-media art.One of the most compelling aspects of Milton's creative process is his use of storytelling techniques inspired by filmmakers like Ken Burns and Spike Lee. He described how this influence shapes his work: “If you look at my collage works, you'll see that I deal primarily with the figures in black and white, and everything else around it is in this bold, vivid color. I'm making a visual reference that this is the information, this is the focal point.”This approach is both artistic and deeply educational, as Milton sees his work as a tool for sparking important conversations. For example, he and his wife recently created a 26-piece fine art alphabet series celebrating pivotal moments in Black history. This collection has traveled to multiple venues, including Alabama State University, and has been adapted into a set of collectible flashcards to make Black history accessible to more people.This year's Black History Month holds special significance as it marks the 100th anniversary of the event's recognition by the U.S. government. Milton spoke passionately about its importance: “Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the founder of Black History Week, set out to make this celebration about making sure that African American young men and women understood the contributions that African Americans had made and were making to America and society.”Milton's art is more than something to admire—it's a call to action. It reminds us that Black history is American history and that we all have a role to play in preserving and celebrating it.To see Milton's work or purchase his Black history flashcards, visit Milton510studio.com.tl;dr:Milton Bowens uses art to connect Black history with storytelling, inspired by filmmakers Ken Burns and Spike Lee.He explained the origins and significance of Black History Month, marking its 100th anniversary this year.Milton shared his journey from a young graffiti artist in Oakland to a celebrated fine artist.His superpower, believing in oneself, helped him turn personal challenges into opportunities for growth.Milton creates engaging educational tools, like his Black history alphabet series, to spark meaningful conversations.How to Develop Believing in oneself As a SuperpowerMilton believes his superpower is the ability to believe in oneself. He explained that this belief stems from recognizing and fostering one's inherent talent. “For me, art rescued me,” Milton shared, reflecting on how his creative gifts became his life's purpose. He emphasized the importance of celebrating young people's creativity, saying, “When your child comes home with this crayon drawing and they show it to you, don't tell them, ‘Oh, that's fine, sweetie.' You take that piece of art, put it on the refrigerator, celebrate it, and you have just ignited a spark of creativity that will stay with that young person forever.”Milton recounted a pivotal moment from his childhood when art literally changed his life. After being arrested for tagging a police car at age 10, a mentor intervened during his juvenile mediation hearing and enrolled him in an art school. This opportunity set him on a path toward becoming a professional artist, allowing his talent to flourish. Later, even during his military service, art followed him—he became an Army illustrator after his commanding officer noticed his skill.Tips for Developing the Superpower:Recognize and nurture your natural talents—they can guide your path in life.Celebrate creativity in others, especially young people, to foster confidence and passion.Seek out mentors or become one for someone else to help unlock untapped potential.Embrace opportunities, even unexpected ones, that align with your talents.By following Milton's example and advice, you can make believing in oneself a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses.

On February 17, 2026, Jesse Louis Jackson made transition at 84, marking a watershed chapter in four generations of African struggle for US and global power. Emerging from Africana Governance formations, Jackson leveraged two currencies—voter power and consumer power—to push US domestic and global Social Structures to have to negotiate with the organized oppressed. From Operations Breadbasket and PUSH to Rainbow Coalition Presidential campaigns of 1984 and 1988, Jackson utilized and tested every tactic available to oppressed people confronting entrenched Social Structures. In Class With Carr 311 interprets the meaning of Jackson's life and work as a case study in the possibilities and limits of Black self-determination, asking what it reveals about today's fragile and reshaping political order and what understanding him, it and ourselves demands of us now.Are you a member of Knarrative?

His emotional speech about community, creativity, and love has fueled major Oscar buzz, especially with the film’s record-breaking 16 Academy Award nominations. From there, the show dives into the viral chatter surrounding Janet Jackson, who was recently spotted at a New Edition concert with Mustafa Farrakhan Sr., sparking speculation about a budding relationship rooted in legacy and influence—though neither has confirmed the romance. Listeners also get an intimate look at Keke Palmer’s candid revelation that she’s “almost 100% sure” she’s asexual, a moment widely praised for its honesty and representation. Finally, things heat up as T.I. and 50 Cent’s ongoing feud reaches new heights: from Verzuz disagreements to diss tracks, social media jabs, and family members jumping into the fire, their clash has escalated into one of the most talked‑about beefs in hip‑hop right now.

There are many ways to describe Donald Trump’s second term, especially given how many of his policies and executive orders related to education and other areas have been tied up in federal courts. Legal challenges seem to follow nearly every move. Still, one recent court development hasn’t received much attention from major news outlets. Some have called it a “win for academic freedom,” but Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum sees it as more complicated than that. Also on today’s “Closer Look with Rose Scott,” Emory University’s Dr. Crystal R. Sanders and Dr. Karida L. Brown discuss the life and legacy of Dr. Carter G. Woodson, the founder of what would eventually become Black History Month. They share his dangerous pursuit of accurately telling the story of contributions made by African descended people.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

One of the unmistakable throughlines of the second Trump administration is how it's overhauling policies that directly affect African Americans, most notably by targeting programs and initiatives that promote diversity, equity, and inclusion, or DEI. For journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones, it's an attempt to take the country back to an era before the civil rights movement. “A lot of folks are saying, you know, that this administration is rolling back the '60s, but I'm like, he—this administration's actually going back further than that.” The administration is also removing references to Black history from the nation's museums, parks, and schools. When history itself is being erased at the highest levels, who's left to tell us where we've been and where we're headed? This week on Reveal, as part of Black History Month, we're bringing you conversations from our sister podcast, More To The Story, with three prominent Black writers who are fighting to tell a more inclusive American story.

Black educators are navigating classrooms where their presence is shrinking and the history they teach is being challenged. Racquel Williams talks with Sharif El-Mekki, founder and CEO of The Center for Black Educator Development, and Ismael Jimenez, Director of Social Studies Curriculum for the School District of Philadelphia, about the 100-year legacy of Black History Month and the undeniable impact of Black teachers in the classroom. Plus, they tell us about their partnership on the Blackprint 20 summit earlier this month, which opened discussion on best practices for teaching Black history. Then, on Shara in the City, we're celebrating a victory for the legacy of Philadelphia's own boxing legend Smokin' Joe Frazier, whose statue is officially relocating from South Philly to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Shara Dae Howard talks with a relative of Frazier's about the grassroots fight to make this happen, plus Frazier's connection to the late Jesse Jackson.

In Black History Is for Everyone, Brian Jones offers a meditation on the power of Black history, using his own experiences as a lifelong learner and classroom teacher to question everything—from the radicalism of the American Revolution to the meaning of “race” and “nation.” Brian Jones has taught many ages and grades in New York City's public schools and the City University of New York. He served as the inaugural director of the Center for Educators and Schools at the New York Public Library and was the associate director of education at the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture. He is also the author of The Tuskegee Student Uprising: A History. Catch Brian Jones on tour. Buy a copy of Black History Is for Everyone.

This episode is a celebration of food! Jo honors the trailblazer Lena Richards, highlighting food, culture, and encouraging listeners to connect communally through food. Food is creativity. Food is storytelling. Food is power. And when Black women lead in spaces where their voices were once erased, that's history being rewritten with flavor.

Inside the Missouri History Museum's “Mill Creek: Black Metropolis” exhibit, a once-thriving Black neighborhood erased by urban renewal comes back into focus. That's where STLPR race, culture and identity reporter Andrea Henderson talked with Lyah LeFlore-Ituen, the new director of the Missouri Historical Society's African American History Initiative. They discussed why Mill Creek's story — and Black history more broadly — is foundational to St. Louis.

Happy Black History Month! This week Imara gives some extra love to a queer trailblazer that not too many are familiar with – Pauli Murray – a gender nonconforming attorney, theologist and civil rights activist. Their legal work led to the eventual recognition of sex discrimination under the US Constitution. First, Imara speaks with Professor Brittney Cooper about how Murray's life and work fits into the larger narrative of public Black intellectuals. Then, Imara sits down with Angela T. Mason, Executive Director of the Pauli Murray Center For History and Social Justice who shares how future generations can continue to honor Murray's legacy.

Simply teaching the facts in and out of the classroom has become an act of courage, and sometimes, real risk. Former history teacher Ernest Crim joins Sharon McMahon to talk about why Black history, civics, and knowing your rights are crucial to navigating power abuses, injustice, and democracy. He tells us why he keeps speaking up even when the system falls short. Plus, is reporting the facts partisan? Sharon speaks with Katie Couric about the changes in journalism over the last few years, and how polarization, paywalls, and fear of retaliation are reshaping news coverage. And be sure to read our newsletter at ThePreamble.com – it's free! Join hundreds of thousands of readers who still believe understanding is an act of hope.
