For many years it was recorded only by memory, and relayed only live, and in person. The Blues were born in the holes of slave ships in route to the Mississippi Delta and the gigantic plantations of Louisiana, Georgia, South and North Carolina long before the Civil War. The music was Influenced by African roots, field hollers, ballads, spiritual rhythms and rhythmic dance tunes called jump-ups. The Blues evolved into a music for a singer who would engage in call-and-response with his guitar. He would sing a line, and the guitar would answer. From the crossroads of Mississippi Highways 61 and 49, and the platform of the Clarksdale Railway Station, the blues headed north to Beale Street in Memphis. The blues have strongly influenced almost all popular music including jazz, country, and rock and roll and continues to help shape music worldwide This week’s program will focus on the history and impact of the Blues as it relates to life for African people living in America.  We will feature the music of some of the giants in the world of the blues, i.e., Brownie McGhee & Sonny Terry; Muddy Waters; T-Bone Walker; Howlin Wolf; BB King; Bobbie Blue Bland; John Lee Hooker; Lightnin Hopkins; Big Mama Thornton; Robert Johnson; Lead Belly and others.  The goal and objective of the Black Reality Think Tank is to “understand the past, dissect the present and support in implementing a meaningful future. 01:58:00Motherland Media NetworknoBlues,Black Music,African Traits,African Culture,SlaveryThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/09/01/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/09/01/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/09/01/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 01 Sep 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

WashingtonIt is often said that Booker T. Washington was one of the most misunderstood leaders in America.  If one, however, examines closely his actions, philosophy, accomplishments and results, one will not question the quality of his leadership.  How was it possible for Washington to achieve any level of leadership success having lived under the cloud of “chattel slavery” the most brutal system of oppression that the world has ever none?  What was it about Washington’s agenda and philosophy that impressed the likes of the honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey to take the approach he did in building the United Negro Improvement Association?  Are there principles and ideas from the Washingtonian/Garvey philosophy system that contemporary leadership can embrace in order to support building sustainable communities?  This week’s program will examine the tenets and leadership approach of Booker T. Washington and analyze how his leadership legacy can be used today as a building block for a meaningful future. 02:03:00Motherland Media Networkno• Booker T Washington,• Marcus Garvey,• Black Leadership,• Leadership Philosophy,• Tuskee InstituteThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/25/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/25/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/25/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 25 Aug 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

We don’t talk about lynching. Worse, we’ve created the counternarrative that says we have nothing about which we should be ashamed. Our past is romantic and glorious. In my state of Alabama, Jefferson Davis’s birthday is a state holiday. Confederate Memorial Day is a state holiday. We don’t even have Martin Luther King Day in Alabama. We have Martin Luther King/Robert E. Lee Day. ?                                                            Matthew Teutsch, Instructor of English at Auburn University Considering last week’s demonstration in Virginia and the political “tap dancing” of the POTUS, the Black Reality Think Tank will discuss why we feel removing confederate statutes and flags won’t deter racism in America.  Our discussion is centered around the scholarship and research of Dr. EE Thorpe, historian.  Dr. Thorpe wrote a book entitle "The Old South a Psycho-History."  Dr. Thorpe was a professor of history at North Carolina Central University in Durham, NC and the former President of the research organization founded by the late Carter G. Woodson, the Association for the Study of African American Life and History. The old south (Dixie) won’t change.  Their legacy is rooted deep in American history.  Our belief at the Black Reality Think Tank is that the only thing that can change racism toward African descendants in America is the fortification of African life by African people themselves. 02:00:00Motherland Media NetworknoConfederacy,Southern American History,Dred Scott case,Slavery,African American historyThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/18/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/18/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/18/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 18 Aug 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Comedy has always reigned supreme in Black life. Many historians and sociologist argue that the philosophical base of African spoken comedy is rooted in an ancient practice called “playing the dozens.”  What does "dozens" mean, and how did it get to be the name for filthy rhymes and insult dueling? There is no single answer, but the search for explanations takes us from Medieval Latin church verses to the slave plantations of the American South. Sources range from minstrel shows to street corners, and musicians from the Mississippi cotton fields to Chuck Berry and Lil Wayne.  The most popular form of playing the dozens begins with “Yo mama so ugly that…” This week on the Black Reality Think Tank we will discuss historically how African people living in America used comedy to soothe their souls and laugh to keep from crying. 02:01:00Motherland Media NetworknoComedy and African American life,Black history,racism and oppression,slavery in America,Vaudeville and minstrellsThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/11/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi-1Culturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/11/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi-1/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/08/11/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi-1Fri, 11 Aug 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Mr. Rogers played with the brother of the late great James Brown, Little Royal and the Swing Masters. Mr. Scales led a rewarding and glorious music career.  He received national recognition for co-writing Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping single for Johnnie Taylor, "Disco Lady". "Disco Lady" was the very first platinum single in the history of the Recording Industry Association of America, selling over two million copies. It was certified platinum on April 22, 1976. As a result, Scales is the first songwriter of a platinum single in America. Our second guest, Mr. Michael Rogers has also enjoyed a wonderful music career performing with Little Royal and The Swingmasters.  They are an American soul and R&B group and artist of the 1960-70's. Little Royal is half-brother of the late great James Brown. Little Royal and The Swingmasters were still performing in 2015 in spite of Little Royal's age of 81.

We will exam the institutions they created to ensure that African people understand that history is taught to create a positive consciousness and image of one’s self as they take their seat on the world stage, The goal and objective of the Black Reality Think Tank is to understand the past, dissect the present and plan for a meaningful future. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoAfrican history,African historians,history,European History,historiographyThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/28/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/28/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/28/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 28 Jul 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

On this week’s program, the Black Reality Think Tank panel of community political analyst will explore these questions and others.  It is the goal and objective of the Black Reality Think Tank to understand the past, dissect the present and offer suggestions that can ensure a meaningful future. 02:00:00Motherland Media NetworknoDetroit Race Riots,Racism,Economic and political exploitation,Kujichagulia,Community BuildingThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/21/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/21/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/21/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 21 Jul 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

E. B. Du Bois in his seminal work The Souls of Black Folk concludes with an essay on the richness and perseverance of gospel music. The sorrow songs, as he calls them, are not only the "most beautiful expression of human experience born this side of the seas," but Du Bois also contends that spirituals are the only distinctly "American music" form. These songs are not mere words set to music, but they are poetry, folklore, history, theology, celebration, sorrow, and soul. These spirituals, like the people who created them, are "African…Afro-American… Negro…Negro and Caucasian."  The "sorrow songs," as Du Bois describes them, are a microcosm of the achievements of African descendants in America; songs, which, like their composers, have been refined by the fires of American slavery, injustice, and oppression. These songs are the "music of an unhappy people," and the creations of "children of disappointment;" and yet, they are also prayers which breathe hope and "a faith in the ultimate justice of things." The cultural expressions of black folks that Du Bois describes in the spirituals, reflect a secondary, but highly significant, definition of the word "soul," namely, those emotions of community and cohesion that thrive in the often unexamined corners of black life. The Black Reality Think and our special guest, Rev. Michael Rogers will discuss and share the music that the great W.E.B. Dubois called "the sorrow songs."  02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoGospel Music,Spirituals,Black Church,Religion,SlaveryThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/14/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/14/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/07/14/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 14 Jul 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Thomas Fortune and Ida B. Wells: Fighting Racism in AmericaOne cannot delve seriously into the centuries of activism and scholarship against racism, Jim Crowism, and the terrorism of lynching without encountering the legacies of Timothy Thomas Fortune and Ida B. Wells Barnett. Black scholars from the 19th century to the present have been inspired by the sociological and economic works of Fortune and Wells. Occidental scholars , however, continue to ignore their writings, their theoretical contributions and their ethical aspirations, preferring instead the insipid declarations of white turn of the century figures, like John Dewey, Josiah Royce, and Jane Addams, figures who are rarely if ever mentioned by their Black counterparts, as the best resources for conceptualizing America’s race problem. Fortune (1856–1928), the longtime editor of the preeminent Black newspaper The New York Age, was not only respected as the dominant economic theorist of his era, but lent council to Booker T. Washington as an adviser, a ghost writer, and the editor of his first autobiography entitled The Story of My Life and Work. He also served as a mentor to a young W.E.B. DuBois, whose first writing position was as an editor for the Age, and continued as such on both Fortune’s New York Globe and the New York Freeman.  Wells life was just as prolific as Fortune. The Black Reality Think Tank will discuss their work and legacy as we try and understand the past, dissect the present and build for a meaningful future. 02:01:00Motherland Media NetworknoRacism,Black Press,T.

Woodson are key to understanding the process of emasculating the black man in America.  “When you control a man’s thinking you do not have to worry about his actions.  You do not have to tell him not to stand here or go yonder.  He will find his ‘proper place’ and will stay in it.  You do not need to send him to the back door.  He will go without being told.  In fact, if there is no back door, he will cut one for his special benefit.  His education makes it necessary.” The invasion of Africa and its people beginning in the 1400’s, coupled with the Middle Passage, began the process of emasculation for the African male in route to America.  Daniel P. Black, in his book, Dismantling Black Manhood, describes it as, “the slave’s initiation into a systematic degradation designed to strip away his humanity and make him ready for the seller’s block.” (43)  This ‘commoditization’, as it is referred to by Stephanie Smallwood in her work Saltwater Slavery, was an acute blow to both the sense of self and manhood for the African male, who prided himself on being able to protect and defend his wife and family. This week’s conversation will continue to examine the research done on this important area of Black History. What are the historical roots for the system of white supremacy?  What documented things were done to people of African descent in the name of white supremacy?   How do African people resurrect themselves from the catastrophic impact of this process? 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoBlack Males,White Supremacy,Intellectual Racism,Slavery,Racism and ReligionThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/30/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/30/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/30/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 30 Jun 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Gil Scott-Heron received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2012. He also is included in the exhibits at the National Museum of African American History and Culture that officially opened on Sept. 24, 2016 on the National Mall, and in an NMAAHC publication, Dream a World Anew. During the museum's opening ceremonies, the Sylvan Theater on the monument grounds was temporarily named the Gil Scott-Heron stage. In response to Scott-Heron's death, Public Enemy's Chuck D stated "RIP GSH...and we do what we do and how we do because of you." On this week’s program, The Black Reality Think Tank will honor the artistry and legacy of the prolific Gil Scott Heron. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoGil Scott Heron,Roots of Rap Music,R & B Music,Human Rights,Protest MusicThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/23/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/23/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/23/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 23 Jun 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Colorism disadvantages dark-skinned people, while privileging those with lighter skin. Research has linked colorism to smaller incomes, lower marriage rates, longer prison terms and fewer job prospects for darker-skinned people. What’s more, colorism has existed for centuries both in and outside of black America. That makes it a persistent form of discrimination that should be fought with the same urgency as racism.”  Colorism is practiced in every area of African American life.

I think they keep alive a faith, a radiant hope, in the future, particularly in our most trying hours.” The evolution of music in the black freedom struggle reflects the evolution of the movement itself. Calling songs ‘‘the soul of the movement,’’ King explained in his 1964 book Why We Can’t Wait that civil rights activists ‘‘sing the freedom songs today for the same reason the slaves sang them, because we too are in bondage and the songs add hope to our determination that ‘We shall overcome, Black and white together, We shall overcome someday.” Professional singers such as Curtis Mayfield, the Staple Singers, and Nina Simone were early and consistent supporters of civil rights reform efforts.

The focus of this weeks conversation is on the timeless, monumental and comprehensive book written by the teacher, leader, guide and establishmentarian of the Nation of Islam, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.  This publication was written in the 1960's and has been reprinted many times.  It is still in print today and there is now an audio book version available.  Many informed community leaders and workers will tell you this book is still relevant in 2017.  Many will argue that it surpasses just being a message to Black men but is a message to all Black people. This book addresses race, religion, economics, politics, social issues and the philosophy of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad.   Why has this book survived the test of time?  What is it's message to Black America?  What does this publication tell us about the vision and work of the Honorable Elijah Muhammad?  What is the impact of this book on students and followers of the NOI today?  How can this publication support the agenda and activities of Black people from other faiths?  How do we evaluate its impact on Black America over the the 50 plus years it has been in print? These and other questions will be considered in this conversation.     02:03:00Motherland Media NetworknoNation of Islam,Elijah Muhammad,Minister Louis Farrakhan,African American people,African American LeadershipThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/02/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/02/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/06/02/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 02 Jun 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Oshi (Pre-Recorded)Testing to do a pre-recorded program  The orishas are the emissaries of Olodumare or God almighty. They rule over the forces of nature and the endeavors of humanity. They recognise themselves and are recognised through their different numbers and colors which are their marks, and each has their own favorite foods and other things which they like to receive as offerings and gifts. In this way we make our offerings in the manner they are accustomed to, in the way they have always received them, so that they will recognise our offerings and come to our aid. The orishas are often best understood by observing the forces of nature they rule over. For instance, you can learn much about Oshún and her children by watching the rivers and streams she rules over and observing that though she always heads toward her sister Yemayá (the Sea) she does so on her own circuitous route. Also observe how the babbling brook and the flash flood reflect her changeable moods. As you observe the orishas at work in the world and in your own lives you will gain a better understanding of them and their  02:05:00Motherland Media NetworknoAfrican Perspective,African people,African NewsPre-Recorded ShowAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/29/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/29/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/29/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiMon, 29 May 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

This too expresses itself as both commitment and practice. It demands that we as an African people define, defend and develop ourselves instead of allowing or encouraging others to do this. It requires that we recover lost memory and once again shape our world in our own image and interest. And it is a call to recover and speak our own special truth to the world and raise images above the earth that reflect our capacity for human greatness and progress. The agenda to use this principle, economically and politically is best represented in the work and legend of Malcolm X and Patrice Lumumba.  This week’s conversation on the Black Reality Think will focus on the work and ideology of these two men.  Why should African people remember them?  Why were they assassinated?  What were the historical forces that prevented them from successfully implementing their agenda?  A panel of political thinkers and historians will address these questions and more as we seek to understand the past, dissect the present and support implementing a meaningful future. 02:03:00Motherland Media NetworknoSelf Determination,African People,Malcolm X,Patrice LumumbaThe Black Reality Think Tan: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/19/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/19/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/19/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 19 May 2017 15:00:00 GMT: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Health and Wellness Disparities in the African American CommunityPer the Prevention Research Center at the University of Michigan, “Health disparities refer to the differences in disease risk, incidence, prevalence, morbidity, and mortality as well as other adverse conditions, such as unequal access to quality health care, that exist among specific population groups in the United States. In addition, these health disparities are gaps in the quality of health and healthcare and are closely correlated with social and economic disadvantage.” The study goes on to say, “One of the most significant healthcare disparities affecting African Americans is the incidence of sexually transmitted infections (STIs) among black youth. When compared to European Americans, African Americana are 6 times more likely to contract Chlamydia, 10 times more likely to contract Gonorrhea, and have 7 times the prevalence of HIV.  African American youth aged 18-24 residing in Flint have the highest rates of sexually transmitted infections in the state of Michigan.  Significant disparities among blacks are also illustrated in mortality and morbidity outcomes related to several chronic diseases, including cancer. Blacks are 33% more likely to die of cancer than European Americans, and twice as likely to die from cancer as Asians, Native Americans, and Hispanics.

The way she presents herself in the media provides a precious archive of one iteration of contemporary Black female respectability politics. In the decades that have passed since Evelyn Brooks Higginbotham coined the phrase “the politics of respectability,” contemporary notions of African American respectability have changed, largely because of the rise of post-racial ideologies that blame the victims of racism instead of the racism itself.  00:29:00Motherland Media Networknotechnology,Microsoft,Sound QualityBlack Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/08/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/08/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/08/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiMon, 08 May 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Since then, jazz has been symbolically linked to the civil rights and Black conscious movement. Writer Stanley Crouch ?indicated “Jazz predicted the civil rights movement more than any other art in America.” Not only was jazz music itself an analogy to the ideals of the civil rights movement, but jazz musicians took up the cause themselves. Using their celebrity status and their music, musicians promoted racial equality and social justice. On this week’s program of the Black Reality Think Tank, we will discuss and highlight the musicians and their music who were a part the “Black conscious movement (RBG).”  Donald Byrd, Cannonball Adderley, Max Roach, Les McCann, Rahsaan Rolland Kirk, John Coltrane, Roy Ayers, Miles Davis, Nina Simone, Charlie Mingus are a few that will be featured. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoCivil Rights,jazz,music,Social JusticeBlack Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/05/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/05/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/05/05/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 05 May 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

From the seed first planted by African dances held in Congo Square and nurtured by early ensembles led by Buddy Bolden and Joe "King" Oliver, jazz began its long winding odyssey across America and around the world, giving flower to a thousand different forms--swing, bebop, cool jazz, jazz-rock fusion--and a thousand great musicians.  Although the foundation of jazz is deeply rooted within the Black experience of the United States, different cultures have contributed their own experience and styles to the art form as well.  Musicologist from around the world have hailed jazz as "one of America's original art forms. This week’s conversation on The Black Reality Think Tank will focus on the history and impact of jazz, globally.  Interspersed with our conversation will be sound bites and samples of jazz music highlighting and celebrating the masters, creators and writers of that genre of music known as jazz.     02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoJazz,New Orleans,Buddy Bolden,Louis Armstrong,John ColtraneBlack Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/04/28/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/04/28/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/04/28/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 28 Apr 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

They were exiles in Babylonian captivity.  As we look at the working poor of America what do we see?  How do we assess the condition of the working class of America?  Will wars and the rumor of wars stagnate life in America?  Is America headed for self-destruction?  Russia, China, North Korea, Iran, Syria, ISIL- what does it all mean?  Can we overcome and live again?

Then “… while laboring in the field, I discovered drops of blood on the corn, as though it were dew from heaven, and I communicated it to many, both white and black, in the neighborhood; and then I found on the leaves in the woods hieroglyphic characters and numbers, with the forms of men in different attitudes, portrayed in blood, and representing the figures I had seen before in the heavens."

Pan-Africanist history and activism might appear as the exclusive domain of African men. We want our listners to understand that women were major contributors to Pan-Africanism. In Hakim Adi’s and [Marika] Sherwood’s book Pan-African History: Political Figures from Africa and the Diaspora since 1787, forty Pan-Africanists are surveyed and only three of them are women. Pan-Africanism is an ideology and a movement that calls for global solidarity and cooperation among Africans to liberate themselves from racist oppression and (neo)colonial and imperialist domination. Africa holds a central place in Pan-Africanist thoughts and organizing. It is the ancestral land of Africans. The harnessing of the continent’s resources for the benefit of the people will serve as the basis for liberation. A Pan-Africanism of liberation should be based on the laboring classes as its principal constituency and, as such, must be an anti-capitalist, feminist, anti-imperialist and anti-racist movement. Our conversation this week will focus on Pan-Africanist women from the African Diaspora. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoPan Africanism,African women liberators,African history,African American history,Liberation fightersBlack Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/03/31/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/03/31/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/03/31/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 31 Mar 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

This week’s conversation on the Black Reality Think Tank will focus on solutions that will support a reunification of “African Love.”  The Black Female and the Black Male must reunite themselves in love and respect for the African Family to rebuild.  What is the nature of the problem between African men and women?  How did we get off track?  What is the root of the problem and who is to blame?  How can we rebuild the relationship between African women and men?  Is this an impossible task?  Who must take the lead and why?  When must we begin and what agenda structure will be used?  Our conversation is with Boniswa Ayan.  Ms. Ayan’s life work is centered on resurrecting the African mind and African family.  She currently works diligently in the African community planting “guidepost” that will assist African people on their journey to rebuild their lives based on the 400 plus years of captivity and enslavement.  Saturday’s program will address questions on African relationships and other family issues as The Black Reality Think Tank tries to “understand the past, dissect the present and project a meaningful future.” 02:03:00Motherland Media NetworknoRelationships,African Family,Black Love,Black Community,Black FamilyBlack Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/03/17/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/03/17/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/03/17/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 17 Mar 2017 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Yoruba refers to a group of cultures linked by a common language. They occupied an area bounded by the Niger River, and including what is now known as the Benin Republic, southwestern Nigeria, and part of Togo. They held a belief system in common called the religion of Ifa. According to the writer and student of Ifa, Yamaya Cruz,“Ifa is a nature base religion. The rituals, initiations, parables, and songs give us the information we need to study the mechanics of the natural world. She goes on to say that “understanding Ifa and the Odu is like holding the master key, for it allows us to unlock all of nature’s doors. Rituals are very structural, for it allows priest to get consistent and accurate results. Much like a scientific experiment, they work with different variables to produce a certain behavior and outcomes. So in a nutshell, there really is no separation between science and spirituality. In fact, science is the study of spirituality. When we know how things work, and how to work with them. We can then turn the ideal into something real.”  This week’s conversation is with a practitioner of the Ifa religion and priestess of Shango, Durojayé Shangokemi Olafemi of the Olori Temple in Florida.  Our discussion will focus on the history and power of IFA.  It will shed light on its contemporary practice and how global Africans can embrace the usage of IFA as a system of Liberation. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoTraditional African Religion,Yoruba,The Religion of Ifa,African American History,African American ReligionThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/02/17/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/02/17/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/02/17/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 17 Feb 2017 16:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Woodson “History shows that it does not matter who is in power or what revolutionary forces take over the government, those who have not learned to do for themselves and have to depend solely on others never obtain any more rights or privileges in the end than they had in the beginning.”  In recognition of Dr. Woodson’s vision, The Black Reality Think Tank will discuss the relevancy and purpose for studying Black History.  The focus will center on how the discipline has always been a community affair.  Studying and learning Black History can empower the community to do for themselves, not just the individual So this week’s discussion will offer resources that one can use to study the power of the global African journey from antiquity until now. Joining the conversation will be Mr. Jarrett Fields ardent student of history, researcher and community activist.  Our conversation will specifically ask-  How can we empower our community, using the knowledge and understanding of our historical sojourn?  What pedagogical process can be used to maximize the learning process?  What resources can be used and where can I access them to support this objective?  Is there a study guide that can assist in learning and studying Black History?  These questions and others will be addressed during this week’s conversation. 02:04:00Motherland Media NetworknoBlack History,Carter Woodson,Dr. James Cameron,John Henrik Clarke,Community EmpowermentThe Black Reality Think Tank: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/02/10/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/02/10/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/02/10/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 10 Feb 2017 16:00:00 GMT: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Part 2                                       Crabs in a Barrel and Haters:  Willie Lynch or Human Nature?  Part 2 According to the Urban Dictionary, “Crab Barrel/Hater” mentality is A syndrome where a group of like situated people hurt those in their community attempting to get ahead. Often this is applied to people in an impoverished community where one person is starting to get ahead. The collective community becomes jealous or filled with a spirit we often call “Hating,” so they find a way to pull that person back down to the community’s level. When harvesting crab, the crab as a group will pull down any crab that starts to climb out of the barrel in an attempt to be the first out of the barrel that holds them in, hence crabs-in-a-barrel. Many the African American community are accused of this behavior.  Is this an example of Willie Lynch?  The Black Reality Think Tank will continue its discussion on what are the characteristics of the “Willie Lynch” syndrome among African people today. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoMental Slavery,Umoja,Slavery,Willie Lynch Theory,African American HistoryThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/01/27/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/01/27/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/01/27/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 27 Jan 2017 16:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an Afrikan World View using whatever resources that we need to help us understand the problems of our times.

Have you ever practiced these principles knowingly or unknowingly?  Have you ever been a victim of these principles?  Is it possible to deconstruct this practice among African people?  The Black Reality Think Tank will host a panel of community activist and students of history who will discuss the meaning behind the spirit of Willie Lynch and consider if it is possible to awaken in African American people the reality of this deadly, self-destructive practice. 02:06:00Motherland Media NetworknoWillie Lynch Spirit,Mental Slavery,Liberation,Free Your Mind,SlaveryThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/01/13/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/01/13/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2017/01/13/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 13 Jan 2017 16:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

Mr. Garvey developed an African nationalist movement using the economic and political ideas of global Pan-Africanism.  He combined the economic nationalist ideas of Booker T. Washington and Pan-Africanists with the political possibilities and urban style of men and women living outside of plantation and colonial societies. Garvey’s ideas gestated amid the social upheavals, anticolonial movements, and revolutions of World War I, which demonstrated the power of popular mobilization to change entrenched structures of power. The Justice Department, animated by J. Edgar Hoover’s Federal Bureau of Investigation and sensing his growing weakness, indicted Garvey for mail fraud. He was convicted in 1923, imprisoned in 1925, and deported to Jamaica in 1927. Unable to resurrect the UNIA, he moved to London, where he died in 1940. Why couldn’t African people resurrect this movement by following the agenda and teachings of Mr. Garvey and build stronger Black communities?  This week’s conversation on the Black Reality Think Tank will explore possible answers to this questions.  The answer to this question is the key to global African survival.  02:01:00Motherland Media NetworknoUnited Negro Improvement Association,Black Pride,Self Determination,Black History,Black Political EconomyThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/16/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/16/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/16/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 16 Dec 2016 16:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

The Black Reality Think Tank has chosen to celebrate Kwanzaa with a discussion on healthy eating during the Kwanzaa celebration.  Dr. Farid Zarif, our program nutritionist, will discuss lifesaving herbs and foods that families can use and serve during the seven day Kwanzaa celebration. Dr. Zarif will offer our listening audience a selection of dishes that he feels will correspond with each Kwanzaa principle.  He will also detail lifesaving herbs that can augment each dish.  Dr. Farid Zarif, Nutritionist/Dietitian, ND, PhD, MPH, CPT is the author of “Slaves of the Tongue” and was a former guest on the Black Reality Think Tank. 02:04:00Motherland Media NetworknoHealthy Eating,Nutrition,Kwanzaa,Nguzo Saba,Healthy HerbsThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/09/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/09/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/09/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 09 Dec 2016 16:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

Woodson are key to understanding the process of emasculating the black man in America.  “When you control a man’s thinking you do not have to worry about his actions.  You do not have to tell him not to stand here or go yonder.  He will find his ‘proper place’ and will stay in it.  You do not need to send him to the back door.  He will go without being told.  In fact, if there is no back door, he will cut one for his special benefit.  His education makes it necessary.” The invasion of Africa and its people beginning in the 1400’s, coupled with the Middle Passage, began the process of emasculation for the African male in route to America.  Daniel P. Black, in his book, Dismantling Black Manhood, describes it as, “the slave’s initiation into a systematic degradation designed to strip away his humanity and make him ready for the seller’s block.” (43)  This ‘commoditization’, as it is referred to by Stephanie Smallwood in her work Saltwater Slavery, was an acute blow to both the sense of self and manhood for the African male, who prided himself on being able to protect and defend his wife and family. This week’s conversation will continue to examine the research done on this important area of Black History. What are the historical roots for the system of white supremacy?  What documented things were done to people of African descent in the name of white supremacy?   How do African people resurrect themselves from the catastrophic impact of this process? 02:01:00Motherland Media NetworknoBlack Male,White Supremacy,Racism and Religion,Black history,European historyBlack Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/02/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/02/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/12/02/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 02 Dec 2016 16:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

He goes on to say, “It is not that we do not know any better, as much as we just will not do any better. We have become slaves to taste, texture, tradition, and masterful deceit.”  He states many of us have become successful, educated and affluent but are still eating like slaves. How does history, politics, and religion intersect with nutrition in the African American community?  What can be done to reverse this process and free ourselves from being slaves of the tongue?  The Black Reality Think Tank conversation with Dr. Zarif will discuss these questions and provide a basic understanding of how we are enslaved to our tongues and foods designed to destroy our bodies and keep us in chains. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoNutrition,obesity,herbal medicine,How to Eat to Live,dietThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/11/11/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/11/11/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/11/11/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 11 Nov 2016 16:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

The discussion will seek to address such notions as "what public policy decisions led to white Americans having at least 20 times the wealth of black Americans?  Why are urban black and brown communities economically disadvantaged, and white communities (i.e. the suburbs), have been materially advantaged by comparison? Whose interests are served by a criminal justice system that disproportionately and unfairly punishes people of color?  What must black families and communities do to repel this agonizing system? This and other questions will be addressed concerning "white supremacy." 01:45:00Motherland Media NetworknoWhite Supremacy,Racism,Race and Violence,Dred Scott vs. Sanford,Institutional and Systemic RacismThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/11/04/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/11/04/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/11/04/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 04 Nov 2016 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

Dwight Hopkins, a professor at the University of Chicago Divinity School, says black liberation theology often portrays Jesus as a brown-skinned revolutionary. He cites the words of Mary in the Magnificat — also known as the "Song of Mary" — in which she says “God intends to bring down the mighty and raise the lowly.” Hopkins also notes that in the book of Matthew, Jesus says “the path to heaven is to feed the hungry, clothe the naked, visit the sick and the prisoners.” And the central text for black liberation theology can be found in Chapter 4 of Luke's gospel, where Jesus outlines the purpose of his ministry. "Jesus says my mission is to eradicate poverty and to bring about freedom and liberation for the oppressed," Hopkins says. "And most Christian pastors in America skip over that part of the book."

The term white-on-white crime is never used, despite 82 percent of all murders of white people are by another white person, per FBI statistics.  They also indicate that no matter how many times people attempt to draw the false equivalence, blacks killing blacks and white police killing blacks will never be the same. This argument states, black men who commit murder go to jail (Black men who fight dogs go to jail. Black men who are behind on child support go to jail. Black men who jaywalk go to jail). Secondly, police officers are sworn in, under oath, to protect and serve the public. With that, they operate under impunity that protects their actions on duty. White officers suspected to have used unlawful deadly force are rarely indicted, let alone found guilty. The focus of this argument rest upon the principle, the only characteristic blacks killing blacks and white police killing blacks have in common is oppression. Black communities turn violent out of a sense of hopelessness and desperation; white police turn violent towards black men out of a sense of power and denigration—both byproducts of black oppression. Does this theory have valid support in a critical thinking environment?  Can it be used as a point of clarity on the agenda to bridge the gap between the police and the community?  What are the stats on black on black crime?  The Black Reality Think Tank will discuss this theory and answer these and other questions generated from this position. 02:11:00Motherland Media Networknoblack on black crime,black community,police brutality,white on white crime,racismThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/21/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/21/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/21/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 21 Oct 2016 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

How will African Americans vote?  Have the Presidential choices made any type of credible outreach to the African American community?  What did they offer?  If they did make an offer, will it work considering the current state of affairs in America?   Is the current slate of Presidential candidates qualified to lead a country that is in crisis domestically and internationally?  Examining each candidate what can we project will happen in America if they are elected? A panel of African American community activist and political analyst will explore the questions above and others as we try to make sense of this election from an African American perspective.   01:59:00Motherland Media NetworknoHillary Clinton,Donald Trump,Barak Obama,African American community,VotingThe Black Reality Think Tank: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/14/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/14/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/14/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 14 Oct 2016 15:00:00 GMT: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

IF SO, HOW? IThe time has come to resolve the crisis between the Black Community and the Police.  There are far too many unexplained deaths of African American people perpetrated by law enforcement who are considered “tax paid” civil servants.  Last week’s discussion on the Black Reality Think Tank focused on the reality of whether the assaults would cease.  This week’s discussion will consider the possibility of solutions and processes to bring the police and the community together.  Our guest will include Municipal Judge Charles Warren from the Village of Palmyra who is also a former police chief; a female police officer; a mother of African American males; a community activist and social philosopher; and a former Project Director of a male mentoring program called “Boys to Men” operated by Opportunities Industrial Corporation (OIC) of Greater Milwaukee. How will this bridge be constructed?  Even though there may be resistance to change, who must force the discussion to consider change?  Can the community ensure that this behavior does not repeat in the future?  What are some best practices being considered by other cities? These and other questions will be explored.  The goal of the Black Reality Think Tank is to understand the past, dissect the present and project a meaningful future. 02:01:00Motherland Media NetworknoBlack Community,Police Brutality,Black Families,Pubic Officials,Municipal GovernmentThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/07/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/07/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/10/07/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 07 Oct 2016 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

It is a story filled with unforgettable personalities, improbably performances, and magic moments. Most of all, it is a story excellence in the pursuit of our national pastime. The story of the black leagues is about sports only on its most obvious level. It is also about American society, about segregation and race hatred in the not-so-distant past, about black economics, about men, some of them extraordinary, who hated the conditions, but loved to play. Despite the formidable odds, individual identities were discovered and established. This week’s conversation is with one of the few remaining survivors who played in the Negro Leagues.  His name is Mr. Dennis Biddle and he has been an ongoing advocate in support of former player who are still living, getting economic justice for their years of labor.  Our conversation will include historical facts on the league and players; economic history of the league and an update on living players and the efforts to provide them with economic justice. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoNegro Baseball League,Economic Development,Black Business Development,Racism,SegregationBlack Reality Think Tank: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/23/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/23/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/23/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 23 Sep 2016 15:00:00 GMT: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

There were many calls and emails from our listening audience applauding their insight and suggesting  that we should have played more samples from the funk/disco era.  Many responders agreed with our guest that this music empowered Black people to move forward in life in spite of the many obstacles as witnessed during the Civil Rights era.  A careful historical analysis of the Civil Rights period will reveal that Black Music was a major element that energized young people to challenge the racist apartheid policies that existed in America and abroad.   Black music is African music and it has always represented the center (core) of our being; whether it was in the Yoruba villages of Nigeria, the cotton fields of Mississippi.  the chain gangs of Louisiana. the Black Churches of North Carolina, the honky tonk clubs of Memphis or the million-dollar recording studios of New York  It has been a gate way for African people to build and grow. In response to our listening audience we will devote todays program enjoying the music of that era as we stroll down memory lane. 02:00:00Motherland Media NetworknoBlack Music,African Music,Blues,Spirituals,JazzBlack Reality Think Tank: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/16/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/16/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/16/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 16 Sep 2016 15:00:00 GMT: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

Mr. Rogers played with the brother of the late great James Brown, Little Royal and the Swing Masters. Mr. Scales led a rewarding and glorious music career.  He received national recognition for co-writing Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping single for Johnnie Taylor, "Disco Lady".

Genesis 9:24 When Noah awoke from his wine, he knew what his youngest son had done to him.  And he said, Cursed be Canaan; a servant of servants shall he be unto his brethren. How did these passages of scripture become a Biblical history on the origin of African people? According to the Hebrew Bible, Ham was one of the sons of Noah and the father of Cush, Mizraim, Phut and Canaan, who are interpreted as having populated Africa and adjoining parts of Asia. The Bible refers to Egypt as "the land of Ham" in Psalms 78:51; 105:23,27; 106:22; 1Ch 4:40. Since the 17th century a number of suggestions have been made that relate the name Ham to a Hebrew word for burnt, black or hot, to an Egyptian word for servant or the Egyptian word Kmt for Egypt. A review of David Goldenberg's The Curse of Ham: Race and Slavery in Early Judaism, Christianity and Islam states that Goldenberg "argues persuasively that the biblical name Ham bears no relationship at all to the notion of blackness and as of now is of unknown etymology." Who historically has used this idea that Black people were cursed by Noah?  Why was it used?  What is the impact of its usage on African people and the Black Church?  These questions and others will be discussed on this weeks program of the Black Reality Think Tank. 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoBiblical history,Curse of Ham,Black Church,Black Theology,White SupremacyThe Black Reality Think TankUs Lifting Us Economic Development Cooperative Presentation and Traininghttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/02/us-lifting-us-economic-development-cooperative-presentation-and-trainingCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/02/us-lifting-us-economic-development-cooperative-presentation-and-training/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/09/02/us-lifting-us-economic-development-cooperative-presentation-and-trainingFri, 02 Sep 2016 01:00:00 GMTUs Lifting Us Economic Development Cooperative Presentation and TrainingIf you are clear that we must gain control of the economics of our community and are serious about building this new reality, this call is for you 02:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoCooperative,Economics,Development,Money,CapitalismThis call is primarily for those who want a hear about the ULU brand of Cooperative economics.Black Power Awards Radio w Bro DJ and Sister Iyapo Nginahttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/30/black-power-awards-radio-w-bro-dj-and-sister-iyapo-nginaCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/30/black-power-awards-radio-w-bro-dj-and-sister-iyapo-ngina/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/30/black-power-awards-radio-w-bro-dj-and-sister-iyapo-nginaTue, 30 Aug 2016 23:00:00 GMTBlack Power Awards Radio w Bro DJ and Sister Iyapo NginaAll the info you need on the 1st 01:02:00Motherland Media NetworknoBlack,Power,Awards,Celebration,ExcellenceAll you need to know about the upcoming Black Power Awards!!"THE MILWAUKEE MELT-DOWN: RESEARCHING, REFERENCING AND UNDERSTANDING DAY TO DAYhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/27/the-milwaukee-melt-down-researching-referencing-and-understanding-day-to-dayHistoryhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/27/the-milwaukee-melt-down-researching-referencing-and-understanding-day-to-day/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/27/the-milwaukee-melt-down-researching-referencing-and-understanding-day-to-daySat, 27 Aug 2016 20:00:00 GMT"THE MILWAUKEE MELT-DOWN: RESEARCHING, REFERENCING AND UNDERSTANDING DAY TO DAY  The concept of racism is a Euro-Asian social construct transplanted into folk history, ideology and thought.  It is then used by Euro-Asian “war powers” to create economic and political agenda’s in an attempt to control and dominate the resources of the world.  The impact of their efforts is the historical carnage and destruction witnessed in non-Euro-Asian history and communities today. Life in the African American communities of Milwaukee and throughout the nation is an example of this Euro-Asian historical “trajectory.”  This influence has been philosophically, intellectually and politically developed into a discourse that is often used to create public policy and social structures for non-Euro-Asians.  Leaders must seek to dismantle this influence in their community.  Agendas must be written that embrace their cultural roots.  The plans must be able to recognize the instruments, materials, blueprints and hidden connections that were used to create this ‘behemoth’ of oppression that continues to destroy lives daily.  Remember the traps of self-destruction are set in the plans and agendas.  Leaders must teach others how to recognize their presence.  This week’s conversation will discuss how one can research and clearly understand, using history, that the Sherman Park, Ferguson, Mo., Charleston, S.C., Dallas, TX.; and other community tragedies is metamorphosed into the philosophy and structure of white supremacy.  We must remember the words of John Henrik Clarke, “all of history is a current event.”  02:03:00Motherland Media NetworknoWhite Supremacy,European History,African American history,Economic Oppression,Public PolicyThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/26/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/26/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/26/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 26 Aug 2016 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

Mindsets and behaviors—subjective factors—are socially driven.  This is why it is doubly if not triply difficult for young Black men to move out of inner cities and end generational cycles of poverty.  The New York Times, USA Today, Los Angeles Times, San Francisco Chronicle, and other mainstream papers have interviewed inner city youth and gotten the same response—"You're not telling us anything we don't know."  They are caught into what Claude Brown’s best seller described as “Manchild in The Promise Land.”  This week’s program will talk with a young black “manchild” about his life in the “promised land” called America.  His name is Charles Reed-Gordon and he is 17 years old.  He has just written his first book called “They Call Me 15’’: The Journey of an African Through Revolutionary Thought.”  He indicates that the book is a compilation of booklets, letters and papers, dedicated to all elders, leaders, warriors, and families that fought, died and survived on the way here to the Americas. He indicates that Marcus Garvey and H. Rap Brown have affected his thinking and actions. The black Reality Think Tank wants to know what does he feel and see each time he steps out of his home into the streets of America?  How does he prepare to cross the many obstacles that face him each day?  How does he see the future for himself and his peers?  What are his dreams?  This and other points will be discussed in detail. 02:00:00Motherland Media NetworknoBlack Males,African American Men,Police Brotality,The Maafa,Black WomenThe Black Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/12/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/12/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/12/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 12 Aug 2016 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

Black liberation theology is a theological perspective, which contextualizes Christianity in an attempt to help African Americans overcome oppression. Black liberation theology seeks to liberate people of color from multiple forms of political, social, economic, and religious subjugation and views Christian theology as a theology of liberation.  James Cone first addressed this theology after Malcolm X's proclamation in the 1950s against Christianity being taught as "a white man's religion".  According to Black religion expert Jonathan Walton:  "James Cone believed that the New Testament revealed Jesus as one who identified with those suffering under oppression, the socially marginalized and the cultural outcasts. Since the socially constructed categories of race in America (i.e., whiteness and blackness) had come to culturally signify dominance (whiteness) and oppression (blackness), from a theological perspective, Cone argued that Jesus reveals himself as Black in order to disrupt and dismantle white oppression." This week’s conversation will review this idea as it relates to the current Black Church.  Is Black Liberation Theology being used in the Black church today?  Are there examples of its usage?  If it’s not being used, then why not? Rev. Walter Lanier, pastor of Progressive Baptist Church will lead this week’s discussion on Black Liberation Theology and the Black Church. 02:03:00Motherland Media NetworknoReligion,Black Theology,Liberation Theology,Black Liberation Theology,Dr. James ConeThe Black Reality Think TankUs Lifting Us Economic Development Cooperative Presentation and Traininghttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/05/us-lifting-us-economic-development-cooperative-presentation-and-trainingCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/05/us-lifting-us-economic-development-cooperative-presentation-and-training/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/05/us-lifting-us-economic-development-cooperative-presentation-and-trainingFri, 05 Aug 2016 01:00:00 GMTUs Lifting Us Economic Development Cooperative Presentation and TrainingIf you are clear that we must gain control of the economics of our community and are serious about building this new reality, this call is for you 02:01:00Motherland Media NetworknoEconomics,Cooperatives,Money,Power,AfrikanThis call is primarily for prospective ULU members who are interested in Family Centered Economics.Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/03/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/03/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/08/03/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiWed, 03 Aug 2016 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

This system disproportionately targets youth of color and youth with disabilities. Inequities in areas such as school discipline, policing practices, high-stakes testing and the prison industry contribute to the pipeline. The Black Reality Think Tank will discuss how to realistically attack this system and in doing so, SHUT IT DOWN!  Our guest is a powerful voice and educational advocate with proposals on methods that could contribute to the demise of the “school to prison pipeline.”  She is the former administrator within one of America’s largest school systems, and now is a private consultant to that system.  This week’s program will discuss the who, why and how of this horrendous network.  What caused this system?  Why does it still exist? 02:03:00Motherland Media NetworknoMis-education,Prison Industrial Complex,Education in America,Parenting,Black CommunityThe Black Reality Think Tank: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/07/29/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/07/29/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/07/29/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 29 Jul 2016 15:00:00 GMT: Afrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.

This system disproportionately targets youth of color and youth with disabilities. Inequities in areas such as school discipline, policing practices, high-stakes testing and the prison industry contribute to the pipeline. The Black Reality Think Tank will discuss how to realistically attack this system and in doing so, SHUT IT DOWN!  Our guest is a powerful voice and educational advocate with proposals on methods that could contribute to the demise of the “school to prison pipeline.”  She is the former administrator within one of America’s largest school systems, and now is a private consultant to that system.  This week’s program will discuss the who, why and how of this horrendous network.  What caused this system?  Why does it still exist? 00:10:00Motherland Media NetworknoPrison Industrial Complex,School to Prison Pipeline,Black Children,Black Families,Educational ReformBlack Reality Think TankAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha Oshihttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/07/22/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiCulturehttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/07/22/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshi/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/motherlandmedianetwork/2016/07/22/afrikan-perspectives-with-brotha-oshiFri, 22 Jul 2016 15:00:00 GMTAfrikan Perspectives with Brotha OshiWe will look at these issues from an African World View.
