Decoding a Historical Struggle With Breanna Moore and Rashaun Williams

In this thought-provoking episode, we delve into the pressing issue of reparations, focusing specifically on the actions being taken right in the heart of Philadelphia.

Breanna Moore, a fourth-year graduate student at the University of Pennsylvania, dedicates her work to the in-depth exploration of diverse histories. Passionate about bringing these narratives to both marginalized groups and broader audiences, she utilizes an array of mediums such as film, digital media, fashion, and public history projects to bridge the gap between academia and public knowledge.

Rashaun Williams, a disc jockey turned social service professional and public policy organizer, weaves his profound study of African and Indigenous American history into his human rights activism. His profound insights and dedication to lobbying for reparations in Philadelphia offer a unique perspective on the landscape of reparations advocacy.

Together, we navigate in conversation through the complexities of historical injustices, the current efforts for reparations in Philadelphia, and the path ahead.
