S2E10: HOW WAS YOUR BLACK HISTORY MONTH?

Upendo and Daniel pause to reflect on their memories and inspirations around Black History Month. Since 1976, every U.S. president has officially designated the month of February as a month to honor the history of Black Americans. Can you remember when you first began celebrating this national honorarium? The hosts  share some trivia, some possibly controversial opinions, and their own favorite Black historical figures of yesterday, today, and tomorrow. What former US Senator refused to vote in favor of designating a Black History Month? Will we ever live in a society where we do not require a special month to honor Black lives? Can you sing the Black National Anthem? What are your opinions on the idea of reparations? Ups for this episode include two new movies about Black lives and an app that Upendo swears will change your life.
