Summary

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.

0:53.8

thing to do. It's more of a question of whether or not it's actually feasible to do

it. People always ask, how will you pay for it? Well they always ask that about any kind of transformative

1:03.9

policy that could be considered in the United States and so it's it's actually a
