    In Class with Carr, Ep. 309: “Blackest History Month I: Semi-quincentennial Wars”

    On February 7, 1926, National Negro History Week was first observed. This week, we frame Blackest History Month as a Governance ritual against the coming 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States of America, not as celebration but as struggle—over memory, power, and education. Coming from this weekend’s “Blackprint 20” Conference in Philadelphia, we trace recurring conflicts from 1776 to 1976 to the present: Social Structure spectacle versus Movement and Memory; the archive versus living intergenerational transmission; and curriculum as Governance protocol beyond simple skill development. White supremacy cannot coexist with African self-determination, equity or any other form of full beingness. Rituals that mark anniversaries must activate memory into action, revealing intellectual warfare over history, schooling, and national identity in a convulsing settler state.

    In Class with Carr, Ep. 308: Black History in Times of Trouble

    This week’s In Class With Carr with Dr. Greg Carr and Karen Hunter, launches this year’s Blackest History Month, affirming that African education is not—and has never been—merely a response to domination, but the transmission of enduring cultural coherence across generations. Using the Africana Studies Conceptual Categories, we juxtapose the latest intellectual warfare over the National Park Service’s President’s House site in Philadelphia, White nationalist attacks on expression and global political shifts with African-centered thinking to discuss how power, knowledge, and memory operate across time and space. We frame February as a recommitment to elevating African Ways of Knowing—cumulative, communal, and grounded in a long-view genealogy that refuses disappearance and insists on continuity.

    In Class with Carr, Ep. 307: Against Disassociation

    This week on In Class with Carr, Dr. Greg Carr and Professor Karen Hunter turn to the geopolitical drama unfolding at Davos and the continued Trump-era decline of U.S. global authority—marked by a disassociative political posture that separates power from consequence and rhetoric from reality, deepening both global and domestic fractures. In this moment of renegotiating global and local Social Structures, Africana Studies must reassert its role as both discipline and Governance refuge. Movement and Memory converge in the birthday of pioneering bibliophile and institution builder Arturo Alfonso Schomburg and the transition of master teacher and researcher Dr. Charles Sumner Finch (1948–2026),whose lives modeled study as resistance as Ways of Knowing, centering the search for clarity as method and grounding practice amid disassociative conditions.

    In Class with Carr, Ep. 306: "New World Order"

    We enter episode 306 of In Class with Carr with Dr. Greg Carr and Karen Hunter, as the US cannibalizes its arrangements through increasingly absurdist white nativism and greed driven global destabilization, Social Structures are rapidly reorganizing. Drawing on reminders from figures such as Patrice Lumumba and Martin Luther King Jr., we recall that world orders do not announce themselves into existence—they are made, resisted, and ultimately decided by the people who survive them.

    In Class with Carr, Ep. 305: Good vs. Evil

    Session 305 of In Class With Carr with Dr. Greg Carr and Karen Hunter, examines this week’s U.S. and global political developments as a “Good vs. Evil” moment. The Trump administration’s escalation of a domestic and global Cold Civil War against legal, moral, and international norms is an attempt to normalize violence, abandon even the appearance of factual communication in favor of state propaganda, and practice power-over-morality politics. Public executions, immigration enforcement abuses and gaslighting, nativist and racist populist rhetoric, and accelerating displayed of local and state and international power in response to these threats underscore the need for strategic clarity and mass action. In this context, debates have intensified over abandoning moral appeals in favor of reframing narratives, organizing power, and mounting informed, disciplined resistance at home and abroad.

    In Class with Carr, Ep. 304: “New Year, Old Empire: Realign or Repeat?"

    In Class With Carr 304, with Dr. Greg Carr and Karen Hunter, opens the new year by naming our unavoidable choices in a moment of U.S. imperial desperation. The session centers our obligation to renew commitment to collective study as an act of courage and discipline, as U.S. bombs fall in Venezuela and Nigeria and a fear-driven minority attempts to sabotage people-centered local and national power. We reflect on the historic swearing-in of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, signaling shifting possibilities in the U.S. social structure, while recalling fellow New Yorker John Henrik Clarke’s call to situate our efforts to transform society within the latitude and longitude of our long memory. We close by naming the work ahead: deeper study pathways, shared learning experiences, living archives, and collective frameworks to continue to enhance the momentum of memory, raise standards, and move knowledge into coordinated action.

    In Class with Carr, Ep. 303: Past the Longest Night : A Different New Year

    Session 303 of In Class With Carr frames the passage of the Northern Hemisphere’s Winter Solstice as a time for celebration, remembrance and disciplined renewal. On the second day of Kwanzaa, Kujichagulia [Self-Determination], we reinforce Governance principles to center study over spectacle, memory over amnesia, and defining ourselves rather than allowing narratives imposed by others with different motives to define us.

    In Class with Carr, Ep. 302: "What’s in a Name/What’s in a Frame?”

    As we enter the Annual Kwanzaa/Christmas/New Year two week corridor, Session 302 of In Class With Carr centers on the meaning of naming, framing, and narrative as sites of Governance, self-determination and collective power. Drawing on Carter Godwin Woodson’s “Much Ado About a Name” essay in his 1933 book “The Miseducation of the Negro,” this week we use our Africana Studies Framework to reflect on, subjects such as Kwanzaa, Black Nationalism, and Pan-Africanism, emphasizing content and context, distinguishing Social Structure from Governance questions in order to empower community-centered knowledge. Rejecting both narrowly-framed academic framings and superficial efforts to rename and redirect the potential of collective power, we use this season of reflection and gratitude to remind ourselves of frameworks that support action, intergenerational learning and expectations, and movement-building rooted in ourselves.
