About this listen
While black history month is all year long around here, we close out the national black history educational season with a look at black centered/focused organizations. Like the month itself, these organizations do not just spring out of nowhere, for no purpose and no reason. They are in fact a direct result of being stiff armed and excluded. Donald leads this one opening with a conversation about realizations nearing thirty and a treehouse (4:20). We move into the inspiration for and rise of popular black centered orgs such as HBCU’s, Black business districts, National Black Caucus and the like (6:40). Donald highlights Tulsa’s Greenwood District (19:05), the creation of Black student orgs on college campuses (31:40) and Black Girls Code (40:56) to drive the point home. And if you did not know about the latter group, we highly suggest you check them out https://www.blackgirlscode.com
