In this episode, we're live at PodFest Berlin! DLS co-founders Katy Derbyshire and Florian Duijsens do the introducing, while DLSP Producer Susan Stone tells us about the amazing life of Shirley Chisholm, the first Black woman elected to the United States Congress (in 1968). Four years later, Shirley was the first Black person and the first woman to run for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination. She was known for her hard work on behalf of equal rights, introducing legislation that helped women and children, workers and the poor. Additionally, she was called one of the “best dressed women on Capitol Hill” for her sharp style.  Shirley's legendary campaign slogan was “Unbought and unbossed,” and she kept the philosophy throughout her long political career. Shirley never wanted to be remembered as the “first” this or that, but as someone who fought for change and blazed a path for those like her in politics. Her legacy is undeniable.  Find out more about Shirley on our episode notes here: https://deadladiesshow.com/2024/09/19/podcast-75-shirley-chisholm/ Follow us on social media @deadladiesshow to keep up-to-date on all things DLS You can check out our Patreon and support us here: https://www.patreon.com/deadladiesshowpodcast Save the date for our next Berlin show, November 30th at Lettrétage.

For four decades, Ramon Hervey II has been a manager and publicist to some of the entertainment industry's most famous talents. Quincy Jones, Bette Midler, Richard Pryor, Vanessa Williams and Muhammad Ali!! All have sought his counsel in confidence. He's also the executive producer who brought us the Peabody award-winning documentary, "Chisholm 72, Unbought and Unbossed." But, what is FAME and why does something as elusive as fame so dominate our media and mental space? Now, to his credits and our rescue comes his book, "THE FAME GAME: An Insider's Playbook for Earning Your 15 Minutes.”

Shirley Chisholm ran what appeared to be a quixotic campaign for the presidency in 1972. Yet, her legacy in American politics runs deep, and a new generation of lawmakers, particularly women of color, look to her as an inspiration. Even so, it's easy to reduce her importance to "firsts"- first black woman in Congress, first black woman to run for president, and so on. To help paint a fuller, more complicated picture of Congresswoman Chisholm, we are pleased to have as our guest-- Anastasia Curwood of the University of Kentucky. She's the author of the new book "Shirley Chisholm: Champion of Black Feminist Power Politics."

"Unbought and Unbossed": This is how Shirley Chisholm described herself in campaign literature — but it's also a mantra that guided her as she became the first Black woman elected to Congress in 1968, and as she broke ground in her 1972 presidential bid. Anastasia Curwood, author of "Shirley Chisholm: Champion of Black Feminist Power Politics," joins Chuck to detail Chisholm's path to power and the adversity she faced along the way.

In this episode we discuss the first African American woman in the US Congress and the first African American woman to seek the nomination for president of the United States from one of the two major political parties. We consider the role that the media and other politicians played in her bid for candidacy and then we talk about the huge uphill battle that was Chisholm's political career (spoiler alert the hill includes racism and sexism). Finally we share some of Shirley's achievements and lasting wins that still benefits us to this day.

I want to be remembered as a catalyst for change in America.”  Joining me in this episode is Dr. Anastasia Curwood, Professor of History and Director of the Commonwealth Institute for Black Studies at the University of Kentucky, and author of Shirley Chisholm: Champion of Black Feminist Power Politics.  Our theme song is Frogs Legs Rag, composed by James Scott and performed by Kevin MacLeod, licensed under Creative Commons.

Civil rights activist and education reform advocate Dr. Howard Fuller shares his powerful thoughts about what being unbought and unbothered mean to him – and what does bother him. Dr. Fuller also shares his approach to having conversations with people with whom you fundamentally disagree and why words have such power, including importantly with the students who attend the charter school he founded, Dr. Howard Fuller Collegiate Academy. Tune in to this remarkable conversation with a once-in-a-generation leader.Episode Highlights: 02:20 - I've always tried to make sure that I represented what I believed in, no matter what the consequences are. And I've always tried to be both honest with myself and with the people that I represent and the people that I'm talking to. And so in that sense, I've never seen myself as someone who could be bought off, someone who you could tell me what to say, versus I'm going to say what I believe, and then everybody has to deal with it. I have to deal with it. The people who are listening to me have to deal with it. But I always wanted people to know that whatever it is I said, it's what I believe. 13:49 -The reality is no one wants to feel unimportant. I mean, in fact, sometimes when a kid is going off in a classroom or in a building, sometimes it's because they're trying to say, "Look at me." They're trying to figure out a way for who they are to become relevant. 16:22 - Never be afraid to make mistakes, the only way you cannot make mistakes is not to do anything. And so, in my view of the world, none of us are perfect. So, no matter what it is we do, there's the potential of mistakes. I've made a zillion mistakes in my life, but I'm never going to let the possibility of being an error stop you from pushing forward. 31:44 - What I'm trying to say to young people is success is not leaving the place that you came from. Success is leaving the place that you came from, and then coming back to that place and making a significant difference.Connect with Becky Dubin JenkinsLinkedIn Connect with Dr. Howard FullerWebsite Guest Bio:Dr. Howard Fuller is a legendary activist and reformer.

As Black History Month ends and Women’s History Month begins, we wanted to honor a pioneer in the struggle for equal rights for both movements.Shirley Anita Chisholm was a politician, educator, activist, community organizer and author.Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1924, as a child during the Great Depression - while her parents struggled to make ends meet - young Shirley and her two sisters were sent to Barbados to live with their Grandmother. Long before the Civil Rights movement in the United States, youngShirley watched as her community advocated for their rights as she witnessed the Barbados workers' and anti-colonial independence movements. Chisholm would later say about her time on Barbados with her Grandmother: “Granny gave me strength, dignity, and love. I learned from an early age that I was somebody. I didn't need the Black Revolution to tell me that."In 1964, after nearly two decades as an educator and community activist, Chisholm ran for and was elected to the New York State Assembly.Even within the New York Democratic Party, Shirley Chisholm had faced resistance to candidacy based on her sex - so she took hercampaign directly to women, using her role as Brooklyn branch president of Key Women of America to mobilize female voters.Four years later - in 1968, Shirley Chisholm became the first Black woman elected to the United States Congress, representing New York's 12th congressional district for seven terms from 1969 to 1983. Her 1968 congressional campaign slogan was "Unbought and Unbossed" - which later became the title of her memoir and adocumentary film on her amazing life. On January 25, 1972, in a Baptist church in her district in Brooklyn - Shirley Chisholm became the first African-American candidate for a major party's nomination for President of the United States, and the first woman to run for the Democratic Party's presidential nomination.In her presidential announcement - she called for a "bloodless revolution" at the forthcoming Democratic nominating convention and described herself as representative of the people offering a new articulation of American identity: "I am not the candidate of Black America, although I am black and proud. I am not the candidate of the women's movement of this country, although I am a woman and equally proud of that. I am the candidate of the people and my presence before you, symbolizes a new era in American political history."Let’s listen to Civil Rights and Women’s Rights Pioneer Shirley Chisholm announce her candidacy for President of the United States.

In this episode of Unbought and Unbothered, I sat down with Austin Astwood. Austin is a Senior at Morehouse College in Atlanta, Ga majoring in educator. We discussed the issues Black boys encounter within the school system. His views on legacy, and following his dreams. Austin is a Black man who experiences joy every time he witnesses a student learn. Black educators are revolutionary.

In our final episode celebrating Black History Month, we speak with Pleschette Fontenet about politician, educator, and author, Shirley Chisholm. Pleschette compares her experience as a black woman in a leadership role today with that of Ms Chisholm during her run for the White House. When we consider race and gender, how much has changed since 1972?

The Black Man Joy Series is the next series on Unbought and Unbothered. I wanted to set my intention for the series, that is to display a different side of the Black man. I wanted to share the stories and life lessons of the average Black man. I sat down with 6 Black men all different but all sharing the crown of being Black kings. We discuss their experiences and lessons learned along the way. I couldn't be more excited for these men's stories to be heard. It is my hope that we shift how we view Black men, how we treat them, and most importantly ho we relate to their experiences.

Episode 68: Unbought and Unbossed - Shirley Chisholm In honor of Black History Month, I am putting a spotlight on influential black Americans that paved the way for others. Our first spotlight is the first African American candidate for a major party's nomination for president of the United States, Shirley Chisholm. Shirley was born on November 30, 1924. She was a politician, educator, author, and the first black woman elected to the United States Congress. Shirley's family immigrated from Barbados, and from a young age she had strong ties to the island. She lived by the mantra of being unbought and unbossed, a slogan that she used throughout her career, and was demonstrated from an early age. In college, she won prizes for her debate skills, not an easy fee as a woman. After graduation, she worked as a teacher's aide, and an early child care center. While she worked there, she continued her education to earn a master's in elementary education, which led her to move from aid to center director. She was not content simply letting injustices happen in front of her. She quickly became known for standing up for issues involving early education and child welfare. It didn't take long for Shirley to enter the world of politics. She started as a volunteer for Brooklyn's democratic clubs, and worked her way up from volunteer to the New York State Legislature. Shirley Chisholm is not only an inspiration for all women but she was also a force to be reckoned with. This story shows the determination of a smart, educated, and thoughtful woman of color but also the sheer will and refusal to accept the status quo.  In this episode Thea discusses:Shirley Chisholm’s storyWhy she entered into politicsHow Shirley refused to accept that women could not have a seat at the tableHow she allowed herself to be seen and heard Ready to get out of your rut?

“There comes a time when one must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but he must take it because conscience tells him it is right.” -Martin Luther King Jr. Tune in for a much-anticipated, super lively, and enlightening chat with the man behind THE read of 2020! Louisiana activist, Gary Chambers, Jr., became a household name in the advocacy world this past June when a video of him brilliantly calling out East Baton Rouge School Board Member, Connie Bernard, went viral and shared by the likes of LeBron James, Madonna, and millions of others. That moment at the school board meeting was only one of several instances over the years where Chambers used his voice and media platform to speak truth to power. Gary is also considering jumping in the Congressional race for U.S. Representative Cedric Richmond’s soon-to-be vacated seat—provided he can raise the necessary money through crowdfunding. As we know, Congress is full of Connies -- both men and women. And plenty of them are Democrats. Few people are more willing to go to DC to not only calling out and effectively address injustices, but fight for everyday people -- those most often overlooked and left out..."We built this joint for free and we're done begging you to do what's right!" Let's get it!! KEEP PUSHING!

Black is where it's at, period. Who's free, who's fake, who's still a slave and who's still trying to figure it out? There are levels to this business of being Black. Let's talk about it!

We’ve wanted to do this episode since we started the podcast. This week we are highlighting a few of America’s most groundbreaking feminists. It was hard to narrow down a list, but we chose to focus on Amelia Bloomer, Frances Perkins, Shirley Chrisholm, and Maya Angelou this time. Amelia Bloomer (1818-1894) is most known for her association with bloomers, a more comfortable and realistic women’s dress style of loose fitting pants that cinched at the ankles underneath a knee-length skirt or tunic. She wrote about the style in The Lily, a newspaper she created, written by and for women. The Washington Post recently brought the publication back. Amelia was an activist for women’s rights, temperance, and dress reform. Her passion for temperance, a movement focused on abolishing or reducing alcohol consumption, separated her from other suffragettes. But she continued her activism until the day she died. Frances Perkins (1880-1965) was the United States secretary of labor during Franklin D. Roosevelt’s presidency. She witnessed the famous Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire and was the principal architect of The New Deal. She played a decisive role in efforts that lead the landmark Fair Labor Standards legislation. She remained in government after her time as secretary of labor and became a civil service commissioner. She lectured on problems of labor and industry until her death. Shirley Chisholm (1924-2005) was the first African-American woman elected to US Congress. Her signature campaign slogan was “Unbought and unbossed” as she fought for higher wages for workers, more public education funding, and demanding respect for black Americans and women. She helped found the National Women’s Political Caucus, which is dedicated to increasing women’s participation in political and public life. She wrote The Good Fight describing her run for President.Maya Angelou (1928-2014) is well-known for her long list of accomplishments, writing, and activism. The United Nations called her to write a poem for the world after her recitation of “On the Pulse of the Morning” at Bill Clinton’s inauguration. She received the Presidential Medal of Freedom award in 2011 for her contributions to the world. Listen in for the full stories of these historic women. Follow us on Instagram @holdmyumbrella

Ingrid Griffith is an award-winning playwright, stage actress, solo artist, and an adjunct professor who, until the coronavirus pandemic stopped everyone in their tracks, had been touring London and the Caribbean over the last six years with her solo performances of plays that she has written, including Unbossed and Unbowed: The Life and Times of Shirley Chisholm, and Demerara Gold, an immigrant's story. But, the pandemic has not stopped her from performing live, virtually -- on the now infamous small screen--ZOOM. On August 27, 2020, in a riveting presentation called Women Who Changed History, which featured three monologues about real women who stood up to systems of injustice, Ingrid's performance showed us why the iconic Shirley Chisholm is as relevant today as she was in the 1960s and 1970s when she stood up to oppressive systems in defense of social justice for people from marginalized communities. The virtual performance was sponsored by Planet Connections. Unbossed and Unbowed was written and performed by Ingrid Griffith and directed by Magaly Colimon-Christopher.Born to immigrant parents from Guyana and Barbados, Shirley Chisholm was an American politician, educator, and author who, in 1968, became the first African-American woman elected to the United States Congress, representing New York's 12th congressional district for seven terms from 1969 to 1983. In 1972, she made history again as the first woman and African American to seek the nomination for president of the United States from one of the two major political parties (1972). Her motto and title of her autobiography—Unbossed and Unbought—illustrated her outspoken advocacy for women and minorities during her tenure in the U.S. House of Representatives. Chisholm was born in Brooklyn, New York on November 30, 1924. She died on January 1, 2005. Visit our website at www.eyesonafricacaribbean.com to learn more about Ingrid Griffith and Shirley Chisolm

We're back and famalam is here to stay! It's week two of Black History Month and we're celebrating by profiling some amazing trailblazers. First, we share the story of Shirley Chisholm who fought for issues that sound all too familiar and learned that people hated her more for being a woman than being black.

Today…there’s “The Squad.” But 50 years ago, there was only one woman of color in the U.S. Congress, and she was the first. Shirley Chisholm, of New York City, was elected to Congress in a historic victory in 1968. And like the squad...Chisholm made her voice heard. In 1972, Chisholm launched a spirited campaign for the Democratic nomination. She was the first woman and first African American to run. Declaring herself “unbought and unbossed,” she took on the political establishment, declaring herself “the candidate of the people.”

The soon-to-be newest member of the House of Commons, the Green Party's Paul Manly of Nanaimo-Ladysmith has found himself in some hot water after audio his comments on the podcast “Unbought and Unbossed” resurfaced about the media's coverage of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.   Guest: Richard Zussman   Global News Online Journalist at the BC Legislature

Happy Black Futures Month y'all!!! After a whole year the Black Out is officially back and starting 2019 with some big questions. This week we sit with the fact that as Black womxn we are varied and complex with many different and intersecting identities, values, and ways of being. Inspired by the City Girls & Cardi B Twerk video, we're wondering if it's possible for Black womxn to experience liberation in all of our complexity? Calling in the spirits of abundance, solitude, gangsta, and desire, the Black Out is tryna figure out how to be our whole, full selves in these 2019 streets. Follow us on IG to join the conversation @dismantleddiaspora

It's been 50 years since Shirley Chisholm was the first black woman elected to Congress. This week, we're talking about people following in her footsteps -- women of color and specifically black women who are running for office this November. Host Jenny Kaplan speaks with Lauren Underwood, a Democrat running in IL-14. Experts share their perspectives on the challenges and opportunities for women candidates of color.

Men are men.... They think I am trying to take power from them. The black man must step     39.    forward, but that doesn't mean the black woman must step back."   40.    QUESTION: Is this the real reason more black women haven't run? (only other black woman was Carol Moseley Braun from Il in 2004)   41.    About her legacy, she said, “I want to be remembered as a woman … who dared to be a catalyst of change.” (Obama?)   42.    Famous Quotes:   43.    "Tremendous amounts of talent are lost to our society just because that talent wears a skirt."   44.    "The emotional, sexual, and psychological stereotyping of females begins when the doctor says, 'It's a girl'."   45.    "In the end, anti-black, anti-female, and all forms of discrimination are equivalent to the same thing - anti-humanism."   46.    Conclusion: In our lifetime we saw THE MOST successful path for black advancement. Politics. Only 36 years from Shirley to Obama.   47.    Shirley Chisholm was an underappreciated legend and icon.   48.    Other Comments?   49.    Meanwhile...the Black Power Movement is falling apart! (2nd major shift)   50.    1971-1972 the Panthers split into different camps. Huey vs Eldrigdge   51.    They went "Hatfield vs McCoy" and started retaliatory assassinations.   52.    H. Rap Brown (@ 29), is the latest high-profile BPM figure to fall.   53.    Others include: Angela Davis, Assata Shakur, Elaine Brown, Eldridge Cleaver, Fred Hampton, Huey P. Newton, Stokely Carmichael, and Bobby Seale   54.    H Rap Brown sentenced for an attack on a New York City bar?!?!   55.    Currently serving a life sentence for murder after shooting of two Sheriff's deputies in 2000.   56.    He was known for taking over SNCC after Stokely and his autobiography, Die Nigger Die!   57.    Probably most famous for saying, "violence is as American as cherry pie” -and- "If America don't come around, we're gonna burn it down."   58.    QUESTION: Was the decline of the BPM more internal (reliance on the gun and violence), external (black people lost interest) -OR- did black people choose to go the "integration" route?   59.    Conclusion: The BPM had a great message: Pride, Self-reliance, and education. But, I think they were too extreme.   60.    Other Comments:   61.    Music: 1972 Top Singles   #1 Roberta Flack    The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face #2 Gilbert O’Sullivan    Alone Again (Naturally) #3 Don McLean    American Pie #4 Nilsson    Without You #5 Sammy Davis Jr.    Candy Man #6 Joe Tex    I Gotcha #7 Bill Withers    Lean On Me #8 Mac Davis    Baby Don’t Get Hooked On Me #9 Melanie    Brand New Key #10 Wayne Newton    Daddy Dont You Walk So Fast #11 Al Green    Let’s Stay Together #12 Looking Glass    Brandy (You’re A Fine Girl) #13 Chi-Lites    Oh Girl #14 Gallery    Nice To Be With You #15 Chuck Berry    My Ding-A-Ling #16 Luther Ingram    If Loving You Is Wrong I Don’t Want To Be Right #17 Neil Young    Heart Of Gold #18 Stylistics    Betcha By Golly, Wow #19 Staple Singers    I’ll Take You There #20 Michael Jackson    Ben #21 Robert John    The Lion Sleeps Tonight #22 Billy Preston    Outa-space #23 War    Slippin’ Into Darkness #24 Hollies    Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress) #25 Mouth and MacNeal    How Do You Do #26 Neil Diamond    Song Sung Blue #27 America    A Horse With No Name #28 Hot Butter    Popcorn #29 Main Ingredient    Everybody Plays The Fool #30 Climax    Precious And Few   62.    Vote: Best Single, __________________________________   63.    1972 Albums   64.    Jan - There's a Riot Going' On - Sly & the Family Stone   65.    Jan - Black Moses - Isaac Hayes   66.    Mar - Solid Rock - The Temptations   67.    Mar - Let's Stay Together - Al Green   68.    May - First Take - Roberta Flack   69.    Jun - A Lonely Man - The Chi-Lites   70.    Jul - Still Bill - Bill Withers   71.    Oct - Super Fly Soundtrack - Curtis Mayfield   72.    Nov - All Directions - The Temptations   73.    Dec - I'm Still In Love With You - Al Green   74.    Vote: Best Album, __________________________________   75.    Key Artist - Diana Ross (@28): Singer, songwriter, actress, and record producer. Born and raised in Detroit.   76.    Became famous as the lead singer the Supremes, the best charting girl group in history. With twelve number-one hit singles. ("Where Did Our Love Go", "Baby Love", "Come See About Me", "Stop! In the Name of Love", "You Can't Hurry Love", "You Keep Me     77.    Hangin' On", "Love Child", and "Someday We'll Be Together", etc...)   78.    The movie dream girls was inspired by the group   79.    She also did a few big films: Lady Sings the Blues, Mahogany, The Wiz, etc...   80.    Question: Here's my problem with The Boss. Mary Wilson was the heart and soul of the Supremes. Florence Ballard was the best singer. Diana was what?   81.    Conclusion: The Supremes were deliberately glamorous, because Gordy wanted all of Motown to be crossover artists. Beyonce has real game, I'm not convinced Diana wasn't just hyped up.    82.    Other Comments:   83.    Key Artist - Al Green (@26): singer, songwriter and record produce. Born in AR, grew up in Michigan, discovered in Memphis.   84.    Kicked out of the house when his very religious daddy caught him listening to Jackie Wilson.   85.    Quote: "I also listened to Mahalia Jackson, all the great gospel singers. But the most important music to me was those hip-shaking’ boys: Wilson Pickett and Elvis Presley. I just loved Elvis Presley. Whatever he got, I went out and bought."   86.    Started out in 1967, flashed in 1971 with the album, "Al Green Gets Next to You", PEAKED in 1972 with 2 albums - "Let's Stay Together" & "I'm Still in Love with You", and capped 1973 with the lp "Call Me", a critically acclaimed "Masterpiece!"   87.    Basically, everything we love about Al was dropped in that 3-year window.   88.    1974 he was born again   89.    Soon after that his "girlfriend" dumped boiling grits on him in the bathtub before shooting and killing herself. (with his gun!?)   90.    By 1976, he was ready to go gospel.   91.    His longtime producer, Willie Mitchell (the guy who discovered him and crafted his music), passed on doing gospel music. (Bounced check story)   92.    1977, he dropped "The Belle Album", his 12th. Rolling Stone magazine said, "We may someday look back on The Belle Album as Al Green’s best"   93.    Question: Just an observation really. This is the 3rd major shift in 1972. Al didn't make political or activist music. Some said he was the last great "Soul Man". In 1971 Marvin asked, what's going on. During 1972, in the middle of war protests, Watergate, an     94.    election, civil rights protests, the Panthers shooting up the streets, Al Green made LOVE ok again.   95.    Other Comments:   96.    Vote: Key Artists, ________________________________   97.    Movies   98.    Lady Sings the Blues: Based on Lady Sings the Blues by Billie Holiday   99.    Starring: Diana Ross (@28), Billy Dee Williams (@35), Richard Pryor (@32)   100.    Blacula: important because it was a successful black horror film   101.    Buck and the Preacher: important for casting blacks as leads in a western and was the first film Sidney Poitier directed   102.    Super Fly: 4th Major shift (The streets are talking)   103.    Priest is done with the clothes, the cars, the drugs, the money, and the white women.   104.    But, his partner, Eddie isn’t.   105.    Quote (Eddie talking to Priest): "You're gonna give all this up? 8-Track Stereo, color T.V. in every room, and can snort a half a piece of dope everyday? That's the American Dream, nigga! Well, ain't it? Ain't it?"   106.    Curtis Mayfield (@30) wrote and produced the AMAZING soundtrack.   107.    Starring: Ron O’Neal (@35), Carl Lee (@46), Sheila Frazier (@24)   108.    At the time of its release, lots of black folks didn't like what Super Fly was representing.   109.    Quote from the Hollywood NAACP branch: “we must insist that our children are not exposed to a steady diet of so-called black movies that glorify black males as pimps, dope pushers, gangsters, and super males.”   110.    The filmmakers (White producer / black director) say they wanted to show the negative and empty aspects of the drug subculture.   111.    Regardless, Super Fly landed BIG TIME with the "post-Civil Rights" generation.   112.    They thought Eddie spoke the gospel.   113.    Quote (Eddie talking to Priest): " I know it's a rotten game, but it's the only one The Man left us to play. That's the stone, cold truth."   114.    Question: Ultimately, what is the legacy of Superfly?   115.    Conclusion: I really enjoyed the movie. However, it blatantly dismissed the BPM, and spoke directly to the criminal elements in the black community. This movie, along with the "Urban" writers, Donald Goines and Iceberg Slim, helped spawn a generation     116.    of criminals. That can't be a good thing.   117.    Other comments:   118.    Vote: Key movie, ____________________________________   119.    Television   120.    Jan - Sanford and Son debuts on NBC (6 seasons)   121.    Groundbreaking: 1st "Black" cast sit-com on the air...at least 2yrs before: That's My Mama ('74), Good Times ('74), The Jeffersons ('75), and What's Happening!!('76)   122.    Theme music by Quincy Jones (@39)   123.    Starring: Redd Foxx (@50), and Demond Wilson (@26)   124.    Foxx was born in St. Louis, raised in Chicago, and ran the streets with pre-Muslim Malcolm X back in the day.   125.    He came up performing raunchy comedy and developed a cult following in the 50's and 60's.   126.    In 1970 he flashed in the comedy movie "Cotton Comes to Harlem" and the producer of All in the Family hit him up.   127.    Question: Is Lamont crazy? Quote: "MLK left black people hooked on economic dependence and Sanford and Son taught entrepreneurship"   128.    Conclusion: Undeniably funny. Redd had the respect and help from some of the best young comics in the business, black and white. Classic!   129.    Other Comments:   130.    Sep - Fat Albert and the Cosby Kids (8 seasons)   131.    Fat Albert first popped up in 1967 during Cosby's stand-up comedy routine "Buck Buck,"   132.    Starring: Bill Cosby (@35)   133.    Born and raised in Philly.

Ep. 92: Republican Steve King is a racist, a despicable politician who fans the flames of hatred and division aiming mainly at immigrants. So, I welcomed to the show J.D. Scholten, the progressive Democrat who is aiming to take this guy down in November in the race for Iowa’s 4th Congressional district. Kimberly Ellis comes back to the show to talk about her new effort looking to be, as she says, an “incubator for the next generation of political disrupters”. Our Robber Baron of the week is the CEO of Tronc who sacked scores of New York Daily News journalists.

Alexis P. Morgan is the pole-dancing, troublemaking, pro-heaux, Black AF sorceress you've been warned about. As an anticapitalist commerce babe, she occupies her time and make my cheddar as a writer, artist, consultant, and professional opinion-giver. Devoted to Truth, Justice, and Liberation, she lives in the spirit of her foremothers:  Unbossed. Unbought. Unbothered. http://www.thechurchofsaintfelicia.com https://www.medium.com/@alxpmorgan https://www.patreon.com/alxpmorgan https://www.facebook.com/alxpmorgan

Shirley Chisholm led a no-nonsense campaign for the House and later for president with the slogan "Unbought and Unbossed." She fought both racial and gender based discrimination to represent her district with a platform that is very similar to progressive candidates of today. Her courage forged a path for candidates like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other women now seeking office to fight for their communities’ shared values.

Today we close out Happy Women's History Month ... Strong! We've had an entire month to revel and reflect on all of the work, magic and honor ALL that women bring to each space. We would be remiss to ignore that behind every #unboughtunbossedunfinished woman is an equally #unboughtunbossedunfinished circle/group/gang of friends! As always we catch up on how we have been Unbought. Unbossed. Unifinshed. and share more than a few laughs. In this episode's leadership development topic we discuss the full gamut of #sisterhood -- building sista-friends, sustaining sisterhood, and our personal experiences in phasing out close friends. We Speak the Name of #MarielleFranco, a Brazilian politician and activist who was recently assassinated. Share with us how your sista-friends help you reach your goals! Welcome to YOUR space!

Growing up on the lively streets of Harlem, New York, Rachelle Salnave found an appreciation for her culture and the arts.  Her inspirations from family members to African American films she saw with powerful role models gave her the desire to create her own works of film; a historical feature documentary on the gentrification of Harlem and the Emmy nominated film about her Haitian identity, La Belle Vie: The Good Life. Wanting to expose more Haitian & Black filmmakers, she co-created with her partner, Ayiti Images and the Black Lounge Film Series, both of which focus on curated films that celebrate the Black experience. The Black Lounge Film Series is a monthly film screening featuring different themes in art spaces located in historic Overtown.  In February, the series premiered its first film: Sammy Davis, Jr. - I’ve Gotta Be Me, at the Overtown Performance Arts Center. This month's theme is female filmmakers and will showcase three films: Macho, directed by local filmmaker, Faren Humes, about a twelve-year old and his conservative uncle who is tested after the killing of a transgender woman in rural town of Sanderson, FL., In the Morning by director Nefertitie Nguvu about love and its inevitable change/decline and Chisholm 72: Unbought and Unbossed, about the first African American woman to run for President of the United States. Rachelle is passionate about sharing her love of film and introducing to the community the many inspiring Black filmmakers to help inspire others.

Lynch recently sat with Carol Jenkins to discuss her work at the Schomburg, what inspired her to tell the stories of two powerful black women, and the female character she's working to create for her first narrative film.

Radio Film School show regular and Breaking the Glass co-producer Yolanda T. Cochran has a special episode created for you today. It's a message of what it means to be a woman pursuing power and influence in today's culture. It's centered around the events of the 2016 presidential election, but it holds value and meaning for women (and men frankly) in the film and television business, and in all walks of life.Then afterward, I give my own post-election commentary and epilogue specifically aimed at my friends and colleagues in the creative arts industry.

Hosea Helps ( a.k.a. Hosea Feed The Hungry and Homeless) was founded by Hosea Williams, most notably known as Martin Luther King Jr.'s trusted officer of the SCLC during the Civil Rights Movement, and later led Georgia's largest Civil Rights march to Montgomery, Alabama. In Hosea Williams' memory, his daughter, philanthropist, respected actress, and CEO of Hosea Helps, Elisabeth Omilami, discusses the Unbought and Unbossed HBCU College Tour with our Host, Anthony Ray.

Unbought historian F. William Engdahl visits for the first time. Brooke MacDonald of Cornerstone Capital revisits for an update. Most intellectuals are owned by the CFR or related elitist think tanks that richly reward scholars in exchange for propaganda used to brainwash the masses Bernaysian style. Bernays' idea was that to have an orderly democracy, people must all be programmed to think alike. Engdahl is one Ivy Leaguer who escaped the satanic clutches of the small ruling elite. Much like G. Edward Griffin, William provides evidence of how the elite have succeeded in destroying peace, prosperity and meritorious-based middle class success into a war mongering parasitic empire and in the process turning the world backward toward a new dark age. At the heart of this decline is dishonest money that enables the elite to clandestinely redistribute wealth from those who produce it to incestuous corporate and government partners. Time permitting M. Oliver will opine on key markets.

Shirley Chisholm has made history throughout her long career of public service. She was elected to Congress in 1969, and for thirteen years, she served on key congressional committees as the first woman and first African American to hold those positions. In 1972, she was the first Black woman to seek the Presidential nomination. She is the author of two books, Unbought and Unbossed, her autobiography, and The Good Fight, the story of her presidential bid.
