Listen "Black History Today: Dr. Derrick Bell, the law professor whose "radical" ideas are still shaping our understanding of race in America"

Episode Synopsis

A frequent critique of the way that Black History Month is celebrated is
the manner by which school teachers, librarians, corporate advertisers and
others will use their platforms to narrowly focus on only a few
African-American history makers during February, selectively promoting a
one-sided and self-serving narrative and erasing a rich history of African
American activism and dissent.
