    Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Tammeca Rochester. SUMMARY OF THE TAMMECA ROCHESTER INTERVIEW From “Money Making Conversations Master Class” with Rushion McDonald 1. Purpose of the Interview The interview was designed to: Spotlight Tammeca Rochester, founder and CEO of Harlem Cycle, and her journey from engineering and corporate marketing into entrepreneurship. Highlight the importance of holistic wellness, community‑based fitness, and representation within the fitness industry. Inspire entrepreneurs—especially Black women—to pursue business ownership, develop strong business plans, and stay committed to their vision despite barriers. Overall, the interview serves as both a success story and a lesson in entrepreneurship, community impact, and personal transformation. 2. Summary of Key Themes A. Re‑Defining Herself Through Education & Career Changes Tammeca explains why she pursued multiple degrees—from Spelman and Georgia Tech to NYU Stern—and how each phase of her life motivated a new direction. She began in engineering, shifted to business, and ultimately found her passion in wellness. B. The Birth of Harlem Cycle Launched out of personal stress relief and a desire for culturally inclusive fitness spaces. Indoor cycling reminded her of joyful childhood bike rides in Atlanta. She wanted a wellness space where Black people felt seen, represented, and culturally connected—something missing from other cycling studios she attended. C. Building a Community-Centered Fitness Brand Harlem Cycle blends movement, music, and culture, playing the genres she grew up with—reggae, soca, hip‑hop—and fostering a socially connected environment.She stresses that fitness isn’t just physical but also emotional and mental health. D. Entrepreneurship: The Real Story Tammeca self‑financed her business after being denied a bank loan. She built her studio while still working full‑time and caring for a young child. Her first year was grueling—waking up at 5:30am and working until after 9pm daily. She emphasizes the importance of writing a business plan, using realistic projections, and staying true to your vision. E. Mentorship, Representation, and Industry Impact Over 60% of her team began as Harlem Cycle clients she later trained to become instructors. She aims to shift the fitness industry to include more diverse voices and accessible community wellness options. She plans for expansion, opening a third Harlem Cycle location in Newark to serve another community with limited wellness options. 3. Key Takeaways 1. You can redefine yourself at any point in life. “We can always redefine ourselves at any moment in life.” 2. Wellness must address the whole person. “Fitness is not just physical… it’s emotional and mental well‑being.” 3. Create community spaces where people feel represented. Tammeca built Harlem Cycle because she felt isolated in other fitness spaces as the only person of color. She wanted a studio rooted in Black culture and community. 4. Entrepreneurship requires discipline, planning, and sacrifice. “Write out your plan… and stay true to your plan.” “Just because you build it doesn’t mean they’ll come.” 5. Community impact drives her business model. Harlem Cycle isn’t just a workout studio—it's a culturally rooted community center focused on mental, emotional, and physical health. 6. Representation & mentorship matter. “60% of my team started as clients that we trained.” 4. Memorable Quotes Here are the strongest, most quotable lines from Tammeca: On Reinvention “Each time has been a moment in life where I evolved because of a goal I personally wanted.” On Holistic Fitness “Fitness to me is all about how we take care of our bodies—not just our physical body, but our emotional well‑being, our mental well‑being.” On Creating Harlem Cycle “I didn’t want to be the only person of color in the room—again. I wanted a place where my community could be seen.” On Entrepreneurship “Just because you build it doesn’t mean they’ll come… back down those numbers by 90%.” On Community Impact “We’re changing the fitness industry… starting here in Harlem by training our clients to be part of the wellness industry.” On Cultural Integrity “We don’t care about competition here—it’s about community.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    Black Rails are marsh-inhabiting birds, more often heard than seen. Many Black Rails nest in marshes along the Atlantic seaboard and in the Midwest. But in winter they concentrate in the coastal marshes of East Texas, Louisiana, and Florida, areas that face many threats. Sadly, according to the 2025 State of the Birds Report, Black Rail populations are perilously low and continue to decline. In recent decades, the enactment of laws protecting wetlands has improved the bird's prospects.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.Want more BirdNote? Subscribe to our weekly newsletter.

    This week's In Class With Carr with Dr. Greg Carr and Karen Hunter, launches this year's Blackest History Month, affirming that African education is not—and has never been—merely a response to domination, but the transmission of enduring cultural coherence across generations. Using the Africana Studies Conceptual Categories, we juxtapose the latest intellectual warfare over the National Park Service's President's House site in Philadelphia, White nationalist attacks on expression and global political shifts with African-centered thinking to discuss how power, knowledge, and memory operate across time and space. We frame February as a recommitment to elevating African Ways of Knowing—cumulative, communal, and grounded in a long-view genealogy that refuses disappearance and insists on continuity.Are you a member of Knarrative?

    How To Get The Best Hair Of Your Life With Coree Moreno

    Coree Moreno is a renowned hair artist who regularly works on editorial and red-carpet events, including the MET Gala. Some of his impressive celebrity roster includes Zendaya, Queen Latifah, Natasha Lyonne, Lil Nas X, and more. But how did someone who began doing hair at 13 in PG County come to sculpt hair for Hollywood's A-List? Coree grew up as a creative and inquisitive child who had a front-row seat to his mom's hair rituals. Before graduating from high school, he was preparing to enroll in cosmetology school. Besides experimenting with colors and cuts on himself, he served prominent women from his community. Working with elite Black professionals in PG County provided Coree a foundation for working with chic women with very high standards, which he would build on in Hollywood. Coree's expansion to L.A. was the result of a bold DM to the iconic Vernon François, stating his interest and availability to assist when the opportunity arises. The opportunity arose two weeks after he sent the DM, and he was assisting Vernon with Serena Williams' hair on a W Magazine set.​When Coree describes how supportive his family was about his decision to pursue hair full-time and when he came out, it's clear why he's so confidently chased his dreams around the globe. During our chat, Coree talks about developing his artistic point of view over the past 18 years. We also discussed current hairstyle culture, and what he thinks about new hair rules and the changing relationships between clients and stylists. I couldn't miss an opportunity to get Coree's professional opinion on Black Girl Haircare 101, like the best edge styling products, the steps to a great silk press, fixing breakage, and his protective style hot takes. We got personal and explored how yoga changed his life, his favorite escapist video games, and why working with Lil Nas X was one of his most iconic creative assignments. Unbelievably, this is Coree's first podcast interview, but with his breadth of knowledge and desire to pour into the next generation of stylists, we know it is the first of many.Tune in as we discuss:(5:00) His Mom's 90s Beauty Practices(5:20) Why Hairstylists Are Losing Recipes(10:45) How A Cold DM to Vernon François Led Him To Assisiting In LA(13:40) What He's Learned Working With Talent On Set(17:15) What Working With Queen Latifah Is Like(23:29) Products & Tools To Lay Edges By Texture(25:45) How To Fortify Your Silk Press(29:33) Achieving A Press With One Pass(30:55) Tips For Fixing Breakage(34:16) How To Blend Stubborn Leave Out(35:30) Best Protective Style For Growth(37:45) Most Damaging Protective Style(39:00) How To Protect Your Scalp In Braids(40:05) A Hair Steam Trick When Wearing Synthetic Hair(47:35) Why Yoga Has Been So Transformative Personally & Professionally(58:31) When Coree Feels The Most BeautifulRate, Subscribe & Review the Podcast on Apple Join the Naked Beauty Community on IG: @nakedbeautyplanet Thanks for all the love and support.

    Panic has a sound. It's not screaming. It's coordination. It's the sudden harmony of people who allegedly never rehearsed singing the exact same song at the exact same pitch, within hours of each other. Panic is when everybody insists nothing happened, but they insist it with matching bullet points, identical buzzwords, and the emotional range of a hostage video filmed in landscape mode.Democrats panic the way bad magicians panic. They don't disappear. They throw smoke, trip over the curtain, and yell “misdirection” while pointing at the audience like that's how illusions work. And right now, the smoke is coming out of Georgia, thick enough to choke every late-night “nothing to see here” narrative they've been dining out on since 2020.You don't need a search warrant to detect panic. You just need pattern recognition and a memory longer than a TikTok loop. Every time Democrats are about to be exposed, they stage something emotional, symbolic, or theatrical. Something that changes the conversation from facts to feelings. From ledgers to lenses. From questions to accusations.

    Healthy relationships require that we are open to being influenced. After all, what is a relationship if it doesn't include give and take. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Kaleb Beyer explains what both research and experience has taught him about the importance of accepting influence in relationships.  Show notes:  What does accepting relational influence mean?   Allowing those we are in relationship with to shape and impact our thinking, feeling and behaving.   What does not accepting relational influence look like?  Relationship rigidity resulting in dismissing or being un-moved by the input, wisdom, experience and interaction of another individual.   What does the research say?  Husbands who accept influence from their wives tend to have happier and more satisfying relationships.  The more influence a spouse is willing to accept, the more influential they can be.  What makes accepting relational influence difficult?  Being defensive or the tendency to recoil from perceived challenges.  Black and white thinking or the tendency to see matters in either/or categories.  Avoidant or the tendency to avoid relationship disagreement and friction.  Misunderstood roles in relationship or the tendency to enter a relationship with a role modeled or taught to you that does not permit influence.  Lack of relationship safety.   What happens if we don't accept influence?  The relationship tends towards disconnection.  Does accepting influence mean finding agreement?  Yes and no. Yes – you both agree that the other is worth understanding well enough to know when and how to yield to them. No – agreement is not the objective. In fact, disagreement is common and still should include influence.  What does healthy influence look like amid disagreement?  When a person says "no" in a relationship, they should simultaneously say "yes" to the friend or spouse they are in relationship with. By this we mean, those we are in relationship should always feel they have been understood and valued enough to have influenced us regardless of the decision at hand.

    In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Ashley Farmer to discuss the life and legacy of Queen Mother Audley Moore—an organizer, theorist, and political visionary who helped shape the very foundations of modern Black nationalism and the contemporary reparations movement. Though she was, as our guest writes, "one of the most important activists and theorists of the twentieth century," Mother Moore's figure has been largely confined to a handful of photographs and passing references, even as her ideas reverberate across generations. Dr. Farmer discusses how if Rosa Parks is remembered as the mother of the Civil Rights Movement, then Queen Mother Moore should be understood as someone who midwifed the political traditions of Black radical nationalism. Farmer traces Moore's extraordinary life, which spanned nearly the entire twentieth century—from the aftermath of Reconstruction to the rise and fall of Jim and Jane Crow, all the way until the late 1990s. Like Du Bois, her longevity allowed her to inhabit multiple political worlds, sometimes in tension with one another. We discuss how her early experiences in Jim/Jane Crow Louisiana, witnessing lynch mobs and growing up in a family shaped by both slavery and free Black community life, forged her political consciousness. We also explore the radical sisterhood she shared with Eloise and Loretta, women who were themselves deeply involved in Black liberation struggles and who helped shape Moore's earliest political actions. The conversation moves westward as they examine Moore's migration to Los Angeles, where the promise of escape from Southern racial terror collided with the realities of redlining, discrimination, and the rise of the Ku Klux Klan in Southern California. We look at how these conditions transformed LA into a hotbed of Black nationalist organizing—and how this period pushed Moore toward Chicago and eventually Harlem, where her political life would take on new dimensions. A portion of the discussion centers on the state's surveillance of Moore. Targeted first by HUAC and later by the FBI's Counterintelligence Program (COINTELPRO), Moore amassed thousands of pages of government files—documents that reveal both the threat she posed to the racial order and the broader pattern of state repression directed at Black radical women. Dr. Farmer analyzed thousands of these files and discusses some of what she discovered in them.  Dr. Ashley D. Farmer is a historian of black women's history, intellectual history, and radical politics. She is currently an Associate Professor in the Departments of History and African and African Diaspora Studies at the University of Texas at Austin. In addition to this book, she is the author of Remaking Black Power: How Black Women Transformed an Era.  If you like what we do and want to support our ability to have more conversations like this.

    The Memphis artist also known as Cities Aviv delivers 60 minutes of stirring electronics and industrial abstractions. Since his first release in 2010, Gavin Mays, AKA African-American Sound Recordings and Cities Aviv, has been living multiple lives. The D.O.T. label boss has put out work under various aliases, spanning post-hip-hop, ambient electronics and soul-inflected abstraction, consistently challenging and rearranging the scope of every genre he works within. African-American Sound Recordings is Mays' "side project"—as hobbies go, it's a formidable one. Since its launch in 2019, he's released ten albums built from a dense palette of samples: distorted voices drift alongside warm currents of jazz and acoustic instrumentation, painting ambient vignettes that swerve between the serene and the industrial. It's no coincidence that Mays cites Sunday service as a formative space. Samples of gospel worship and memories of communal ritual are the fil rouge running through the project, reimagining Black musical traditions as a living system. RA.1024 has one of the shortest tracklists in the series to date: three total. The final two tracks, gospel recordings ripped from his own CD collection, arrive like sunlight breaking through the clouds.

    The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Dr. Kellen Hoxworth. Classified as a White Man, Dr. Hoxworth is an “Assistant Professor of Theatre at the University of Buffalo, State University of New York. His academic interests focus on the intersections between performance, race, and coloniality, particularly in African and Black diasporic performance.” During our recent discussing with Dr. Chad Montrie, he told us that while researching Racially Restricted Regions of Minnesota he was inundated with blackface and minstrel show images. Dr. Montrie said, “They were everywhere.” At the schools, in the libraries, at the political meetings. All areas of people activity. The ubiquitous nature of these images motivated him to write a book on the subject and spurred Gus research other material on these racial performances. I soon located, Dr. Hoxworth's Transoceanic Blackface: Empire, Race, Performance. This 2024 publication asserts that minstrels shows are not a uniquely “american” form of entertainment. Rather, blackface and minstrel show performances where a crucial component of a global White Culture. People classified as White in every region of the globe partook in the humor and domination of the minstrel show. They are a massive component of what it means to be classified as White. #WhatDoesItMeanToBeWhite #TheCOWS16Years INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE 564943#

    Air Week: February 2-8, 2026 1956: Jukebox Rhythm Review, Pt. 1 This week, we journey back 70 years as the “Juke In The Back” puts the ol’ Rockola Jukebox front and center and we present part 1 of a 2 part feature on the biggest jukebox jivers from 1956. It was the first full year of Rock n’ Roll Music crossing over from its Rhythm & Blues roots into mainstream Pop Culture. The line between R&B and Pop was getting more and more blurred, but there were still many records that Black audiences were dancing and romancing to, that were not heard at all by White audiences. We’ll hear a few of those on this week’s program from big artists such as Muddy Waters, Ruth Brown and Little Walter. We’ll also dig on some certified crossover hits from Chuck Berry, The El Dorados, The Platters and The Teenagers Featuring Frankie Lymon. So grab a nickel, grab a dime and let’s make some time with the top jukebox spinners from the first half of 1956 on this week’s Jukebox Rhythm Review with host Matt The Cat. LISTEN BELOW

    The biblical quote “running to and fro” contextually has two meanings. The first meaning is literal: in the last days, people will be trying to escape indignation. Destruction, famine, and horror will be endless upon the earth. The second meaning is figurative: people will be seeking and searching for The Most High and His wisdom, but shall not find it. The 2015 movie The Running Man perfectly depicts both meanings. Tune in as we review the movie and discuss the symbolism within the film.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-realist-the-visionary--3304218/support.Check out our website:https://www.therealistthevisionary.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-realist-the-visionary--3304218/support.Follow us on IGFollow Us on TikTok

    Today, we’re bringing you the best from the KUOW Newsroom… Removing a child from their home can be very harmful for them. And historically, child welfare workers were much more likely to take Black and Native American children away from their birth parents than other kids. So, over the last several years, Washington state made policy changes to keep more birth families together. But now, critics say those changes have gone too far and made children less safe, and they should be reversed. A note to listeners: This story discusses child abuse and death.
