Black Tea: Radical Black Internationalism Black Tea VU

    • Society & Culture

In her autobiography, Black revolutionary Assata Shakur states, "Imperialism is an international system of exploitation, and, we, as revolutionaries, need to be internationalists to defeat it." For today's episode, we will be talking with Vanderbilt History Professor Dr. Brandon Byrd about his book The Black Republic: African-Americans and the fate of Haiti and Radical Black Internationalism. This marks the third episode in a February mini-series in commemoration of Black History Month, where Black Tea will be interviewing and talking about different components of black history, including literature, gender politics, and the formation of black history.
