Coretta est une jeune femme brillante et indépendante. Née en 1927 à Marion, en Alabama, elle a toujours trouvé dans l'école un lieu d'épanouissement. Musicienne talentueuse, première soprano de la chorale, elle joue aussi du piano et de la trompette. Mais au-delà des arts, Coretta est animée par une autre passion : la justice. Pendant ses études à Yellow Springs, elle rejoint la NAACP et s'engage dans la lutte pour les droits civiques. De son côté, Martin Luther King Jr. grandit à Atlanta, en Géorgie. Garçon précoce et réfléchi, il décroche à 18 ans une licence en sociologie et fait un choix déterminant : il sera pasteur. Pour lui, l'Église est le meilleur moyen de donner du sens à sa vie et de partager de l'humanité. En 1951, il termine sa licence en théologie et part à Boston pour son doctorat. C'est là, sur le campus, que leurs chemins se croisent. Martin demande à une amie si elle connaît une jeune femme à lui présenter. Elle pense immédiatement à Coretta. Une rencontre arrangée qui ne tarde pas à devenir une évidence. Entre eux, tout va très vite. Ils se découvrent, se reconnaissent. Coretta n'avait pas prévu de tomber amoureuse. Martin non plus.

Lastly, we continue our two-part series looking at the benefits and the harm of using AI in the job hiring process. Data suggests by the end of the year, nearly 70% of businesses are expected to use AI for reviewing resumes, rejecting candidates or even conducting entire interviews. Hilke Schellmann, an investigative journalist and professor at New York University, is the author of the book, "The Algorithm." Schellemann says AI has invaded the workplace, calling the evolving phenomenon "the next civil rights issue of our time.” Previously, Rose talked with Dan Beck, the president and chief product officer at SAP SuccessFactors, about what he says are some of the pros of AI being used in the workplace.

After returning from a quick Tunica getaway, I share my vision for this new conservative platform that delivers blunt takes on politics and pop culture while aiming to include younger patriots in their 30s who are making waves in the conservative movement. My first post tackles Pete Hegseth's restoration of equal combat fitness standards for military personnel—regardless of gender—as it rightfully should be.The episode takes a fascinating turn as we explore an absurd controversy unfolding in a Long Island school district. A parent and NAACP chapter leader has actually filed a complaint against the school's new Spartan mascot, claiming it's "white supremacist" and "anti-woman." This perfectly captures the ridiculous extremes of cancel culture, where even ancient Greek warriors aren't safe from modern purity tests. As Greek-American comedian Ellen Karis brilliantly points out, the Spartan represents admirable qualities like strength, discipline, and fighting for one's community—exactly what you want in a mascot!Before wrapping up, I pose the age-old relationship question about bathroom etiquette: should men put the toilet seat down? After years of marriage, my perspective is refreshingly practical—I can handle putting it down myself! Throughout the episode, I contemplate rebranding this podcast to align with my new blog identity, so stay tuned for potential changes coming soon.

He volunteered to become the plaintiff in the NAACP lawsuit that successfully challenged the all-white Democratic primary in South Carolina in 1946.Carolyn centers her story on Elmore, his family, his neighbors, and the activists and lawyers who filed the suit.

Most people in North America have probably at least heard the name W. E. B. Dubois. In the early twentieth century, DuBois—the first African-American to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard—published and spoke extensively about his vision of equality through education. In particular, he edited The Crisis, the monthly magazine of the NAACP, while also writing such classics as The Souls of Black Folk. But if Dubois is well known, the same cannot be said these days of Jessie Redmon Fauset, the central character of Victoria Christopher Murray's Harlem Rhapsody (Berkley, 2025). In her day, Fauset—who held a degree from Cornell as well as a master's from Penn and a certificate from the Sorbonne in Paris—worked as the literary editor of The Crisis and its associated children's magazine, The Brownies Book, while writing the first of what would become four acclaimed novels. She fostered such stars of the Harlem Renaissance as Langston Hughes, Countee Cullen, Jean Toomer, Georgia Douglas Johnson, Nella Larsen, and Zora Neale Hurston. She was also romantically involved with W. E. B. Dubois, a reality that Murray uses to humanize a heroine who is in every other respect truly remarkable. Her story pulled me in and kept me reading to the very last page. Victoria Christopher Murray is the author of more than thirty novels, including The Personal Librarian and The First Ladies, both historical fiction co-written with Marie Benedict. Harlem Rhapsody is her most recent book. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and four other novels. Her next book, Song of the Steadfast, is due in 2025.

February Section 3- The Great Migration, Harlem Renaissance, and World War, 1915-1954 Part 1 of 2

In Section 3, I discuss some of the prominent movements and themes occurring in between two World Wars, particularly the Great Migration characterized by the movement of millions of blacks from the rural agricultural south to the urban industrial north as well as highlighting some important proponents of the Harlem Renaissance like Zora Neale Hurston, Countee Cullen, Langston Hughes (the Shakespeare of Harlem), Paul Laurence Dunbar (who inspired the movement after passing away in 1906) and others. The Harlem Renaissance influenced the Great Migration just as the Great Migration influenced the Harlem Renaissance. Not only was there a growth in a black intelligentsia or bourgeoisie, there also was an increase in the black urban worker described in past podcasts. Denied not only political protections and equality but also entry into certain occupations, housing, credit, and capital, there would be immense organization for rights. The Declaration of Rights of the UNIA, established in Harlem, would be spearheaded by perhaps the greatest black organizer in American history Marcus Garvey, who sought not only economic advancement for blacks, but support and self help through his organization for African Americans and the black diaspora around the world. Garvey, heavily influenced by Booker T. Washington yet being way more expansive in his demands for education and political opportunity, would be skeptical of the NAACP and W.E.B Du Bois limited political actualization. However, some community organizers would take it a step further than Garvey, demanding not only a radical redistribution of wealth but world revolution. In part 2 of the Great Migration, Harlem Renaissance, and World War 1915-1954, we will see an increased proclivity, prevalence, and sympathy towards communist ideology, influenced by the 1917 Russian Revolution. Not only would blacks recognize race exploitation as tied to wider class exploitation, but in doing so they would seek solidarity with other working class whites in the fight against what Cyril V. Briggs would term "Private Capitalism."Is such an ideology conducive to accommodating a liberal integrationist perspective of the future Civil Rights movement? In some ways yes and in some ways no. Without a doubt, this period saw not only a bursting of literary creativity and a fundamental critique of white oppression and caste democracy, it would also provide the seeds for marxist theories advocated by future leaders and intellectuals like Fred Hampton, Dr. Angela Davis, and Dr. Cornell West. The failures of the economic system, as evidenced by the Great Depression, only heightened a sentiment towards more radical and alternative economic perspectives. Is the problem corruption, capitalism, or political inequality? This would be a question that many people of this period from 1915-1954 would engage with as American after the Great Depression and World War II would enter an era of immense prosperity. However, within two decades it would be short lived.Next video and podcast coming out Friday February 21:Section 3- From Plantation to Ghetto: The Great Migration, Harlem Renaissance, and World War, 1915-1954 Part 2 of 2Monday February 24 will come out:Section 4- We Shall Overcome: The Second Reconstruction, 1954-1975 Part 1 of 2Tuesday February 25 will come out:Section 4- We Shall Overcome: The Second Reconstruction, 1954-1975 Part 2 of 2Friday February 28 will come out (either in 1 or 2 parts):Section 5- The Future in the Present: Contemporary African-American Thought, 1975 to the Present

A while back, Victoria Christopher Murray set out on a mission to learn about the women of the Harlem Renaissance. But in her research, she mostly found stories about men – until she came across Jessie Redmon Fauset. Fauset, whom Langston Hughes called "the midwife of the Harlem Renaissance," was a writer who eventually became literary editor at The Crisis, the NAACP's magazine. Her life serves as inspiration for Murray's new historical fiction novel Harlem Rhapsody. In today's episode, Murray speaks with NPR's Pien Huang about the historical impact of Fauset's romantic relationship with W.E.B.
