Customer Reviews
The Positive black Agenda
This podcast has great news storys both political and comunity focused that dig to the core issues affecting African Americans in politics and comunitys brings me up to date and and a little more up to speed.
Fantastic Radio Show
As a white male I can say this radio show is not at all racist. It's an excellent examination of the political landscaping affecting all Americans. The show focuses more on the African American struggle sure, but how is that different than any other radio show? If you advertise yourself towards a particular audience you're going to focus more on that demographic. To call the show racist is completely ignorant. I am a regular listener of this show and many other shows on PRN.
Don
....Lancev32 is a Tea Party activist that goes online to make derogatory comments about left publications, broadcasts and blogs to declare warfare on people of color and progressive whites by using language such as "racist" only because the people who produce such material acknowledge that they are Black. It’s Interesting that these same types defined African people as Black and try to claim racism because we acknowledge ourselves as such. Fox News just uses that as a euphemism; it can just as well be called White Racists Nationalists News.
People in the Tea Party and other right wingers love to criticize Black people for not being self sufficient, but when we assert ourselves to bring some self sufficiency they become threatened. Malcolm X said it best: they cut your wings and accuse you of not being able to fly. That's how these types maintain their unfair and unearned advantage/privilege.
Black Agenda Report has various guests that provide valuable information for Black and all people who care about social justice that you will never hear anyone else. The podcast is highly recommended for anyone (not just Black people) who wants real news from grassroots activists and on-the-ground leftist organizations.
