[Thread] So, it took having to do a search on the website, but I managed to find the #BlackHistoryMonth audio archives on the #WMPG website. Hopefully, the ones from 2025 will also be posted on their website (and the ones already posted won't disappear...).

Black History month - daily short history audio features

Posted February 3, 2021 by 'mpger

"Everyday in the month of February (Black history month), WMPG is airing a short audio feature about an influential Black man or woman in history. We’ll hear about people from Maine to Malawi. We celebrate scientists, radicals, teachers, preachers, musicians, athletes, and those who fought to followed their dreams. You can hear them all again right here: #BillieHoliday , #LeonardCummings , #MaconBollingAllen , #HarrietTubman , #NelsonMandela , #ShirleyChisholm , #MarshaPJohnson , #GordonParks , #JackieRobinson, #AngelaDavis , #ThurgoodMarshall , #StevieWonder , #Lizzo , #CornellWest , #TrevorNoah , #MaeJemison , #TaranaBurke , #AlvinAiley , #JosephineBaker, #RhiannonGiddens, #SunRa, and #LaverneCox."

"For every Jackie Robinson or Shirley Chisolm that New Yorkers can feel good about, there was a nefarious character like Richard Riker who dealt in infamy."

Funny story. We planned this to be a 20 minute chat but then we got talking . . . . I love it when a #podcast interview becomes a real conversation! Thank you Yeah-Uh-Huh for this great experience.

SpotifyYUH 185 - "Naming Gotham" with Author Rebecca Bratspies!Episode · Yeah-Uh-Huh · YUH 185 is environtmental lawyer/professor/author Rebecca Bratspies and her book "Naming Gotham: The Villains, Rogues and Heroes Behind New York’s Place Names". Sitting in the exhasberating traffic of the Major Deegan Highway one day, our guest had plenty of time to ponder (and sometimes curse) the faceless figures that blessed the infrastracture in and around one of the greatest cities in the world. As she researched some of these historical figures, she discovered that manyof them might have been worthy of their distinction, while others were far less deserving of having their name committed to posterity. For every Jackie Robinson or Shirley Chisolm that New Yorkers can feel good about, there was a nefarious character like Richard Riker who dealt in infamy. #gothamcity #majordeegan #jackierobinson #shirlychisolm #williamshea #brooklynbridge #cuny #queens #williamcullenbryant #johnastor #annhutchinson YUH Theme by David T and Mojo 3 https://www.amazon.com/Insanity-Sobriety-Blues-David-Mojo3/dp/B091N8BJNB Rebecca Bratspies Offical https://www.rebeccabratspies.com/ Naming Gotham: The Villains, Rogues and Heroes Behind New York’s Place Names on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Naming-Gotham-Villains-Rogues-Heroes/dp/1467151408   Yeah Uh Huh Social Stuff:    Yeah Uh Huh on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@yeahuhhuhpod Yeah Uh Huh on Facebook https://facebook.com/YeahUhHuhPod Yeah Uh Huh on Twitter https://twitter.com/YeahUhHuhPod Yeah Uh Huh on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/7pS9l716ljEQLeMMxwihoS?si=27bd15fb26ed46aa Yeah Uh Huh on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/yeah-uh-huh/id1565097611 Yeah Uh Huh Website: https://yeah-uh-huh.wixsite.com/yeahuhhuhpod
