Black History Year

De: PushBlack
  • Resumen

  • Learning your history makes you - and your people - stronger. As Black people, we know we’re left out of the history books. That the media images are skewed. That we need access to experts, information and ideas so we can advance our people. Black History Year connects you to the history, thinkers, and activists that are left out of the mainstream conversations. You may not agree with everything you hear, but we’re always working toward one goal: uniting for the best interest of Black people worldwide. BHY is produced by PushBlack, the nation’s largest non-profit Black media company - hit us up at BlackHistoryYear.com.

From the myth of sin to the illusion of the state, Terry traces how capitalism, Christianity, and respectability politics have all tried to define what’s right for us—and what happens when we refuse.

  • The History They Didn't Tell You About the Blues with Chris Thomas King
    Apr 23 2025
    This week, we’re pulling back the curtain on American music history—and asking who really gets to define it. Grammy-winning Blues musician and cultural historian Chris Thomas King drops in to break down why everything we’ve been taught about the origins of the blues is wrong. Because Chris is letting it be known: it didn't start on Mississippi plantations—he's taking us to Congo Square, Creole New Orleans, and Storyville, where he argues the blues was born out of resistance, freedom, and Saturday night defiance. From ancient African instruments to the invention of “jazz” as a sanitizing label, this conversation reclaims the radical roots of Black music—and why they still matter. To learn more, find Chris at https://www.christhomasking.com/ and check out his book "The Blues: The Authentic Narrative of My Music and Culture." — This podcast is brought to you by PushBlack, the nation’s largest non-profit Black media company.
