Emmy® Award-winning filmmaker Dawn Porter joins Tavis to showcase her latest project DEADLOCKED: HOW AMERICA SHAPED THE SUPREME COURT. A four-part documentary series that traces the modern history of the Supreme Court and the people, decisions and confirmation battles that have shaped the Court into what it is today. DEADLOCKED: HOW AMERICA SHAPED THE SUPREME COURT ABOUT THE SERIES From Emmy® Award-winning filmmaker Dawn Porter, DEADLOCKED: HOW AMERICA SHAPED THE SUPREME COURT is a four-part documentary series that traces the modern history of the Supreme Court and the people, decisions and confirmation battles that have shaped the Court into what it is today. With the Justices under the microscope like never before, DEADLOCKED premieres on SHOWTIME at a profoundly consequential time: Americans are grappling with a Supreme Court drastically remade by former President Donald Trump; the historic confirmation of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson; the unprecedented leak from inside the Court's chambers; and the aftershock of the landmark Dobbs decision's effective reversal of Roe v. Wade. To understand this critical moment, the series travels back to the 1950s when Chief Justice Earl Warren heralded an era of progressive legal decisions spurred by the nation's changing values, paving the zigzagging path the country is still walking today. DEADLOCKED reveals how the Supreme Court's ideological balance has shifted over the years to reflect the hopes - and fears - of American citizens, exploring the interconnectedness between the Court's and the nation's future. HER NEXT PROJECT Award-winning, acclaimed filmmaker Dawn Porter. Over the years Dawn has emerged in the entertainment industry as a leader in the art of storytelling; directing and producing critically acclaimed projects that have impacted generations of people from all walks of life. Dawn's recent feature film with ABC News Studio, "The Lady Bird Diaries," is a groundbreaking all-archival documentary film about the former First Lady, Lady Bird Johnson, who is one of the most influential and least understood First Ladies. The feature film looks at the 123 hours of personal and revealing audio diaries that Lady Bird recorded during her husband's administration. These audio diaries showcase how Lady Bird was an astute observer of character and culture, as well as a savvy political strategist. Dawn highlights Lady Bird's crucial role in Lyndon B. Johnson's presidency and brings viewers behind the scenes of one of the most tumultuous and consequential periods in modern American history. "The Lady Bird Diaries" was met with critical review at the 2023 South By Southwest Festival and went on to receive The Louis Black 'Lone Star' Award. The film is produced by Trilogy Films for ABC News Studios with Dawn serving as the director and producer. "The Lady Bird Diaries" will exclusively premiere on Hulu on November 13, 2023.

When thinking about brass band music, one probably instantly thinks about John Philip Sousa, but William Joseph Blue, a Black Man, spent his life sharing his passion for Brass music with the world as well, which is all well documented in his diary.

As a notable bandmaster, talented cornetist, composer, and teacher, William Joseph Blue spent his life sharing his passion for music with the world. He was born to George and Mary Blue on July 25, 1875, in Bloomfield, Missouri. He married Eva Mapp on September 8, 1898, and the couple moved to St. Louis around 1900. ----- Blue's musical expertise made him one of the leading Black artists in St. Louis and earned him the nickname “Professor.” At an Emancipation Day celebration in 1912, he led a brass band of 50 Black musicians playing to an estimated crowd of more than 20,000 people gathered at Handlan's Park, located at Grand and Laclede avenues. ------ Blue enlisted in the US Army during World War I, arriving at New Jersey's Camp Dix training camp on March 7, 1918. Four days later he was appointed assistant band leader for the 350th Field Artillery Band of the 92nd Division, one of the two Black infantry divisions that served in the war. By June 30 he was on his way to the war front in France. ------- The Missouri Historical Society's Collection includes a fragile 136-page diary from Blue that gives the reader vital information and insight into his experiences. Blue recorded details about his enlistment at Jefferson Barracks, his time in training camp, his experiences, and thoughts on military service in France, and poems about the war. Writing about the artillery band's performances in France, Blue noted, “Every concert was received with continuous applause until we gave the last number.” ------ Also, Blue was involved with different band organizations, including his own William Blue Band, he led the Haskell and Blues School of Music in St. Louis, founded the Shriners Band, and organized Sunday concerts at Pythian Hall and Douglass Hall. ------ For more information about St. Louis Black history, please visit our website mohistory.org/aahi.

Louis Black breaks down what it means when a woman says she doesn't need a man.

There have been many great voices on the airwaves of St. Louis over the years. One of those voices was Bernie Hayes. After developing an interest in radio while serving in the military, he would find his way to St. Louis, and becoming an influential voice, and a pioneer of Black radio.

Born to John and Alberta Burns in Florida in 1935 and raised in Chicago, Hayes graduated from the University of Illinois and served in the US Air Forces. It was during his time in the military that he developed an interest in radio and began announcing with the Armed Forces Radio Services. Before landing in St. Louis, he was a radio broadcaster in other locations around the U.S. ——— Honing his skill to meet the needs of the Black community, Hayes crafted his segments to stimulate the minds of his viewers with music and knowledge. His style was so dynamic that listeners believed there were two Bernie Hayeses' because of the two completely different sounds that graced the airwaves, with R&B and rock 'n' roll in the afternoon and jazz during the midnight segment. ——— In his book “The Death of Black Radio, Hayes explores the power of Black music and culture, which led to a rapid change that has since dominated the market and made significant gains for non-Black radio professionals. As different Black radio personalities emerged and dedicated themselves to entertaining, educating, and enlightening their audience, there was direct resistance to authentic Black voices. In 1972 and 1977, Hayes and a few of his colleagues led protests that paved the way for many local Black-owned radio stations and their Black employees. With this picket, Hayes declares, “we changed the culture of radio for African American disc jockeys and announcers at KKSS, KWK, KATZ, and Magic 108.” ——— For more information about St. Louis Black history, please visit our website mohistory.org/aahi.

Louis Black gets interviewed for once

Louis Black is back with an epic poem and commentary on the KeKe Palmer Drama

Sometimes sports heroes are heroes in other walks of life. One Black baseball player in the area was embarking on a promising career with the Atlanta Braves when he got a call to duty and was drafted and sent to Vietnam, where he met his fate. Just press play to hear the whole story. ——— Click on search links to see if there are episodes with related content: Cicely Hunter, Black History, Civil Rights, Military, Sports, Baseball, ——— Podcast Transcript: I'm Cicely Hunter, Public Historian from the Missouri Historical Society, and here's history, on eighty-eight-one, KDHX.  ——— Stories that integrate the history of war, patriotism, and race can be told through the experiences of Black St. Louisans who served on the battlefield. 58,000 military personnel lost their lives during the Vietnam War and the story of a graduate from Kirkwood High School connects to the local and international story of the Vietnam War. It is the story of Private Udell Chambers that provides an entry point into Black life during the onset of the war.  ——— Private Udell Chambers was born to Tommie and Bettie Chambers on February 22, 1948, and lived with his family in Meachum Park. Gaining notoriety as a strong baseball athlete in high school, Chambers was admired within the community for his welcoming personality and skillset. After graduating in 1966, Chambers began his promising baseball career. As a rookie shortstop player in 1967, crowds heard the ball crack against the bat and soared when he hit 12 home runs and stole 28 bases. While playing in the minor league, Chambers hit .325 in the Class A affiliate. ——— From the baseball field to the battlefield, Udell Chambers had a bright career with the Atlanta Braves that was quickly cut short after he was drafted into the Vietnam War. He was assigned to 1st Battalion, 7th Field Artillery Regiment in the 1st Infantry Division. He was later killed in action at the age of 20 years old on June 21, 1968, in Vietnam, during a ground casualty that resulted from a hostile rocket. For his bravery and heroism, Private Chambers was awarded the Purple Heart, National Defense Medal, the Vietnam Campaign Medal, the Vietnam Service Medal and inducted into Kirkwood High School's Athletic Hall of Fame in 2013. ——— For more information about St. Louis Black history, please visit our website mohistory.org/aahi.

The founding of a town can have interesting stories, behind it The founding of Brooklyn, Illinois,  is one such story.  Legend has it that Brooklyn developed as a Black settlement, an asylum, and within the Underground Railroad system. Just press play to hear the whole story. ——— Click on search links to see if there are episodes with related content: Cicely Hunter, Black History, Civil Rights,  Podcast Transcript: I'm Cicely Hunter, Public Historian from the Missouri Historical Society, and here's history, on eighty-eight-one, KDHX. ——— Stories of agency, courage, strength, and resilience were told as oral history traditions passed down from generation to generation within Black communities. It is through these stories that many forebearers instructed Black Americans about their lineage, life lessons, and mapping a path forward. The history of Brooklyn, Illinois, incorporates this oral tradition. ——— Brooklyn's story revolves around Priscilla Baltimore, often referred to as Mother Baltimore, who was born into slavery around 1805 in Bourbon County, Kentucky. She was sold off by her enslaver (her biological father) and sold several more times before purchasing her freedom for about $1,100. According to lore, she continued to liberate her family, first her mother and then her second husband, John Tobias Baltimore, by mortgaging her property in St. Louis. ——— Despite the punitive Black codes adopted by Illinois in 1819, which were designed to suppress economic, social, and political power for self-emancipated and free Black individuals, the state was a destination for Black people fleeing Missouri. In 1829, 11 families left Missouri for Illinois with Priscilla and John Baltimore as their leaders. ——— Legend has it that Brooklyn developed as a Black settlement, an asylum, and within the Underground Railroad system. The principles of family and religion were their foundation, and it was through God's power that they were liberated during the antislavery movement. ——— Priscilla Baltimore died in 1882 and many details about her life as a beloved and revered figure within the community appeared in the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. Along with John Berry Meachum, Mary Meachum, Moses Dickson, and many other pioneers that paved the way for Black liberation in the previous centuries, it's important for us to keep the oral history about Priscilla and John Baltimore within St. Louis regional history. ——— For more information about St. Louis Black history, please visit our website mohistory.org/aahi.

In the fight for civil rights, many groups took part. One of those was group of St. Louisans who banded together and morphed into a local chapter of CORE. Just press play to hear the whole story. Click on search links to see if there are episodes with related content:  Cicely Hunter, Black History, Civil Rights,  Podcast Transcript: I'm Cicely Hunter, Public Historian from the Missouri Historical Society, and here's history, on eighty-eight-one, KDHX. ——— Poised with the determination to change the racial dynamic in St. Louis, residents led the charge to mobilize their efforts. The Congress of Racial Equity also referred to as CORE was a national interracial organization designed to utilize nonviolent tactics to combat racial violence and segregation. The primary factor that guided their involvement derived from Mahatma Gandhi, whose practices helped them to expose the brutality and inhuman beliefs espoused by racists. The belief of active resistance, through nonviolent measures, became their primary tactic to address injustices. ——— A local chapter of CORE was born in St. Louis during 1947 after Bernice Fisher, a Chicago activist, inspired a small group to organize. Irv and Maggie Dagen were the primary leaders and organizers of the small group, Humanity, Inc., which morphed into the St. Louis chapter of CORE following their meeting with Fisher. ——— The next year, the St. Louis local chapter of CORE determined to galvanize their efforts by demonstrating at sit-ins at Stix, Baer & Fuller, a department store and other businesses like Famous-Barr, Woolworth, Walgreen, and more. The group contained students and faculty primarily from colleges and graduate schools, but also some high school students and faculty members from institutions like Washington University, Saint Louis University, Stowe Teachers College, and a couple of high schools in the area. ——— As CORE and other activist groups embarked to change the racial landscape in St. Louis towards an integrated society, there was a glimmer of hope in 1948 when the first bill was introduced to prevent racial discrimination with a public accommodations bill. Thirteen years later, on May 19, 1961, a bill passed to address the discriminatory practices and was enacted on June 1, 1961. ——— For more information about St. Louis Black history, please visit our website mohistory.org/aahi.

Many remember Elizabeth Keckley from the film “Lincoln” as Mrs. Lincoln's dressmaker and confidant.

One woman whose ingenuity brought her from St. Louis to Washington D.C., was Elizabeth (Lizzie) Hobbs Keckly (also spelled Keckley). Her toiling and skillful hands whisked her into prominence as she created dresses for President Abraham Lincoln's wife, Lady Mary Todd Lincoln. Widely held as a controversial book, Elizabeth Keckley published a narrative detailing her experiences and life in Behind the Scenes: Or Thirty Years a Slave, and Four Years in the White House in 1868. ——— Keckley was born enslaved in Virginia during February 1818, and she worked as a domestic servant from a young age, learning how to sew alongside her mother. Keckley's slaveholders moved her, her mother, Agnes, and her son, George, to St. Louis in 1846 in hopes to improve their economic fortune. She was hired out as a seamstress and dressmaker to sustain the Garlands. She expressed, “With my needle I kept bread in the mouths of seventeen persons for two years and five months.” ——— Keckley desired freedom and labored as a skilled seamstress to obtain it, gaining a reputation as the best dressmaker in St. Louis and working with prominent families. Her clients offered to loan her the money to purchase her and her son's freedom, and in November 1855 she borrowed $1,200—about $35,000 today. For the next five years, she worked to repay them. ——— In 1860 she moved east—first to Baltimore and then Washington, DC. She was soon sewing dresses for the wives of Jefferson Davis and Stephen Douglas and her most notable client, First Lady Mary Lincoln who Keckley became her confidante and dressmaker. ——— For more information about St. Louis Black history, please visit our website mohistory.org/aahi.

We speak with Ron Himes, Director of the Nebraska Repertory Theatre's production of “Dontrell, Who Kissed the Sea” November 10-21st. This play, written by Nathan Alan Davis, is a coming-of-age story, and is yet another successful collaboration with the The St. Louis Black Repertory Company, in which Ron founded. His credits and experience are quite extensive, but we hope we can at least give you a glimpse of his talent and his vast contribution to the national theatre community. It is also an example of the commitment to amplifying voices that the Nebraska Repertory Theatre, under Christina Kirks' (Director of the Johnny Carson School of Theatre and Film) fine leadership and collaboration, brings to our state - and something we are so thankful for. *********** NEBRASKA REPERTORY THEATRE CONTACT INFORMATION:  Get your tickets now at  https://nebraskarep.org/season_specific.php?show=1  Website: https://nebraskarep.org/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/nebraskarep Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nebraskarep/ Box Office phone number 402-472-2567. 301 N 12th St, Lincoln, NE 68508 *********** ST LOUIS REPERTORY COMPANY CONTACT INFORMATION:  Website:  https://www.theblackrep.org/  *********** HOW TO LISTEN TO THE PLATTE RIVER BARD PODCAST Listen at https://platteriverbard.podbean.com or anywhere you get your podcasts.

Sometimes even when you have great ideas for your content, it can be tough to come up with fresh ways to present it to your audience. You know you've got great ideas to share, but your format is getting a little… stale. Give your audience something new, or pick a few formats that work for you and rotate between them as you create.  Tutorials The classic “How-to” post is a classic for a reason. Walk your audience through how to do something from beginning to end with a step-by-step guide. Myths vs Facts Contrary to what some of my students think, not everything on the internet is true. There's lots of misinformation out there on just about every topic and you can use your platform to separate fact from fiction. Mistakes and Lessons Learned Part of becoming an expert is making mistakes. Share some of your oopsie moments with your audience, talk about what you learned, and give them tips to avoid the same pitfalls. Personal Stories One of the ways your audience gets to know, like, and trust you is to tell your stories. They can be directly related to your business or not, as long as your audience can learn something from it that can help them grow. Holiday Themed Content Whether it's major holidays like Thanksgiving or Christmas, or a lesser-known holiday like National Margarita Day (February 22, in case you want to celebrate), you can create content related to your niche that's themed for the day or season. Expert Interview You don't have to be the expert on everything. If there are some topics that would benefit your audience that you feel that someone else knows better, bring them in to help! Rant on Something Topical Ahhhh, the rant. A staple of modern life. Rants can also give your audience a glimpse into your real personality and something you feel passionate about. I wouldn't recommend a rant as a common format, unless you're going for a Louis Black vibe, but every once in a while it's okay to let loose. Frequently Asked Questions If you're noticing your audience asking the same questions over and over, create some content that addresses them. You can do a longer piece that answers a bunch of questions, or take each question on its own. Curated Content Once again, you don't have to be the expert on everything and you don't have to reinvent the wheel. If great content already exists you can curate it into a single post with links to other people's work. Behind the Scenes Take your audience into your world and show them what it looks like as you do what you do. Give them a preview of what you're working on, take a tour of your workspace, or just give a glimpse behind the curtain. Review Products or Tools If there are products, tools, or services you use to help make your life or business run smoother, show people how you use them and what they do. You can also be an affiliate for those products so when someone takes your recommendation to try it, you get a commission. Unpopular Opinions If you've got an opinion on something that isn't in line with common ideas, share it with your audience. Instead of shying away from contrary opinions for fear of alienation people, put yourself out there and let people who are of a similar mind feel even more connected to you. Lists Give your audience a list of reasons to try something, ways to do something, tools to use, places to go, people to follow… you get the idea. You know, like 11 Ways to Find Inspiration for You Blog, Podcast, or Video Show, or 7 Ways to Monetize Your Blog, Podcast, or Video Show. Case Studies When your clients or customers start sharing their success stories you can interview them to tell their stories with your wider audience. People can learn from their journey and it's a great promo for your business. Win-win! Content Series Sometimes you've got something to share that's too big to fit in a single post or episode. Rather than trying to pare it down or creating a single piece of content that's too long for anyone to get through, break it into a series to be shared over a number of weeks. Monthly Updates and Stats If your business is to help other people do what you do, it can be helpful for you to share stats and numbers from your own business. You can share the ups and downs and lessons learned to provide your audience with a preview into their own future. Upcycle Old Content After you've been creating content for a while, you might find yourself circling back to the same topics again. If you're at that point, you can actually take an older piece of content and update it with more current information, additional stories, or just a fresh take.
