Podcast appearances and mentions of Ida E Jones

Morgan State University archivist Ida E. Jones discusses the history of Maryland's largest HBCU and how it is deeply entwined with the history of Black politics, activism, and media, particularly in Baltimore.

Museum of the Bible hosted the homegoing event of the Slave Bible as it returns to Fisk University in Nashville, Tennessee. This provocative artifact prompted several thousand organizations, churches and educational institutions to tackle the conversation of the role of the Bible and slavery in our country. This particular Bible stirred museum guests to leave more than 9,000 comment cards reflecting on their experience and interaction with the exhibit. The roundtable discussion, moderated by Dr. Ida E. Jones, included scholars, academics and theologians such as Dr. Eric Lewis Williams of the National Museum of African American Culture and History (NMAACH), Dr. Jessie Carney Smith of Fisk University and Dr. Yolanda Pierce, professor and dean of the Howard University School of Divinity.

We will broadcast our fifth episode Thursday, October 15 and feature Dr. Ida E. Jones, who just penned “Mary McLeod Bethune, True Democracy, and the Fight for Universal Suffrage” for The Women's Suffrage Centennial Commission. The Archivist at Morgan State University talks with POH Talk Radio about the history of the women's right to vote and Vice President nominee Kamala Harris. Jones is also author of “Mary McLeod Bethune in Washington, D.C.: Activism and Education in Logan Circle.” During the second half-hour, Tyrone Haymore, historian/curator of the Robbins History Museum, talks about the Calumet Region's Black heritage including its impact on aviation in the United States and Ethiopia. Robbins, Illinois was home of the nation's first Black airport and is of one of the nation's first Black towns. The Calumet Region straddles the Illinois and Indiana line and covers South Side Chicago, South Suburban Chicago, and portions of Northwest Indiana, including Gary.
