Was Jim Crow really a “blessing in disguise” for Black Americans? In this episode of Black Talk Radio News, host Scotty Reid confronts the revisionist narrative promoted by Dr. Claude Anderson and others who suggest segregation was a time of Black prosperity.

We dig into Anderson’s family legacy with Safe Bus Company in Winston-Salem, explore whether their success was the norm or an exception, and ask why there’s no record of their support for the Civil Rights Movement, despite benefiting from the gains it produced.

Scotty also challenges Anderson’s economic theory that wealth must precede political power, raising concerns about how that logic mirrors today’s super PAC and billionaire-controlled political landscape. This episode calls for accountability from those in Black media and scholarship who perpetuate myths that undermine the legacy of civil rights fighters and mislead new generations.

In this episode of Black Talk Radio News, we dive deep into one of the biggest hypocrisies in U.S. politics — the fact that millions of undocumented immigrants pay billions in taxes every year, only to be criminalized, detained, and deported by the very system that benefits from their labor. While right-wing politicians call for mass deportations, few are talking about the economic fallout: a shrinking tax base, lost Social Security revenue, and growing federal deficits.

We explore how the IRS issues tax ID numbers (ITINs) to undocumented workers, why the government protects their tax info from ICE, and how Trump’s immigration agenda would worsen the national deficit — a cost rarely calculated by the Congressional Budget Office. This episode exposes how political fearmongering ignores the real math and punishes those who quietly help fund America’s social safety net.

Tune in and find out why this issue deserves more attention — not just from human rights advocates, but from anyone who cares about economic truth and fiscal responsibility.

In this video, we expose the shocking truth behind Texas lawmakers' decision to approve $140 million in Israeli bonds while rejecting a modest $2 million upgrade to the state's flood warning system — just months before devastating floods claimed lives.

This is more than a policy failure — it's a betrayal of the people they’re supposed to serve. Let’s break down the numbers, the priorities, and the lives that were put at risk for the sake of foreign investments.

“Time for an Awakening” with Bro.Elliott & Bro. Richard, Sunday 07/06/2025 at 6:00 PM (EST), guest was Author, Historian, Moores Professor of History and African American Studies at the Univ. of Houston, Dr. Gerald Horne. Dr. Horne’s latest book, “The Capital of Slavery (Washington D.C. 1800-1865)” was at the center of our dialogue with our special guest. Also, Open Forum conversation on topics that affect Black people locally, nationally, and internationally.

Welcome to Black Talk Radio News, where we challenge narratives and dig deep into historical and political truths. Today, we’re turning to the pages of scripture—but not for religion’s sake. We’re talking about power. Land. And the courage to speak truth when it’s unpopular.

Because here’s the thing: the prophets of ancient Israel weren’t quiet men with long beards. They were radical voices who stood up against kings, armies, and priests. Not for wealth. Not for land. But to remind their people: God doesn’t care about your borders if your justice is corrupt.

Let’s take Amos, for example. He called out Israel’s elites for exploiting the poor while performing religious rituals. He said—“I hate your festivals… Let justice roll like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream.”

Sound familiar?

Fast forward to the time of Yeshua, known today as Jesus. The people under occupation were looking for a warrior messiah to free them. But Jesus said, “My kingdom is not of this world.” That wasn’t weakness. That was defiance. He was telling Rome—and the corrupt leaders of his own people—that empire doesn’t bring salvation.

He didn’t pick up a sword. He picked up the words of Isaiah, Micah, and Jeremiah—prophets who condemned their own leaders for chasing power over compassion.

In this episode of BTR News, we expose the bipartisan legacy of U.S. betrayal towards Iran and the hypocrisy of presidents past and present. Why does Iran still attempt diplomacy with a nation whose history shows it only respects domination? From sanctions to sabotage, regime change is the real agenda.
