The Black Whole Podcast

By: Richard Pete Hill
  • Summary

  • A black hole is an area of space where gravity is so intense that even light cannot escape. Black holes are so powerful because so much matter has been packed into a small space. Black history in American history occupies a relatively small area; consequently, knowledge regarding black achievements does not escape it. The Black Whole podcast was created to expand your understanding of black bondage, black enlightenment, and black achievement.
