You fail to tell the story of the evolution of black music.... you literally don’t even make it to GCSE level.. you swap expertise and the real story of development of styles, instruments and great players, for chit chat about vegetables and radio stations..... dont tackle a historical subject if you’re not going to do your research and tell us something interesting.
I loved this podcast. Would love to hear more episodes soon.
Love this. My fella collects old 78 jazz and blues record. He has some 78s from as early as the 19teens.
It’s sad this this peace of history is always met with so much anger and animosity from whites who refuse to hear it because it makes them uncomfortable about the true history of their ancestors. This is why things will never change especially in the US. Other nations actually teach their dark history(Germany) to keep from allowing it to happen again. The fact that this podcast is teaching historical FACT while people(yts) call it lies is very telling.
You believe that because it alleviates the guilt you prevent yourself from feeling. So do what you must to allow you to sleep.
I invite you to name them.
All those liberal back-patting, participation trophies are worthless these days. Even Barry Obama rec’d a nobel for doing Nothing to deserve one.
Well said hcftic
Im a decendent of Edward Colston, I don’t understand why the subject of slavery always lands at the transatlantic period, slavery still exists, I don’t see black lives matter marching round the streets of the Yemen, Saudi Arabia etc challenging modern day slavery,ci don’t see anyone screaming and shouting about the enslaved Europeans by the barbery pirates, the the very reason Britain has a navy is because it started to end slavery, the word slave comes from enslaved Eastern Europeans
Absolute nonsense. Revisionist history altered to fit narrative.
Excellent piece but disheartening at the same.
Relistened to the series and got even more out it the second time. Just profound storytelling about the truth of this country's past that needs to be told. And the fact that our past still effects our present, as shown by the comments here. Wonderful journalism.
Wow! Thank you for this truth.
This has been an eye opening Podcast. Thank you NYT and Nikole Hannah-Jones and all!
He threatened the reporter. Wow. He lied to your reporter.
Bullshit from social fascist wing of the Democratic party and their black nationalist friends who are bent on undoing the Martin Luther King's legacy.
Slavery is built on the need to exploit economic opportunities. Africans/labour needed to drive this and were managed in a violent way
