The Bring It On! crew has prepared a special broadcast of relevant and memorable interviews from their archives.
Part One:
Originally airing on August 11, 2014, hosts William Hosea and Bev Smith welcome award-winning journalist and filmmaker Raheim Shabazz. His new film, Elementary Genocide, exposes the socially engineered mechanism created by our government. He proposes that the public school system labels elementary aged African American males as work for hire targets within the US penal system. Elementary Genocide confirms this theory and seeks to educate parents, teachers and families, so that we can reclaim our young men and ensure the future of our community.
Part Two:
Originally airing on April 14, 2014, hosts William Hosea and Bev Smith speak with author David Leander Williams. He is a collector of memorabilia, historical artifacts and information about African American history, particularly slavery and African American music history. Mr. Williams uses his vast knowledge is on display in his book about the entertainment empire that developed on Indiana Avenue from its beginnings in 1821 until its demise in the 70’s, entitled Indianapolis Jazz: The Masters, Legends and the Legacy of Indiana Avenue. The performance venues that once lined Indiana Avenue were an important stop on the Chitlin’ Circuit and featured greats like Freddie Hubbard and Jimmy Coe. Bring It On! contributor Liz Mitchell also joins the conversation to share some of the exciting history contained in the pages of Mr. Williams’ new book.
