The Marcus Hendricks Show

The 1619 Project & Black Excellence University


Listen Later

Welcome back to The Marcus Hendricks Show; season 2 is underway! In this reintroduction, we discuss The 1619 Project, the new docu-series from Nikole Hannah-Jones. I also introduce the plan for Black Excellence University, a community and platform that will be home to engagement, education, and elevation for my fellow brothers and sisters working to drive the forces of liberation (word of the day). I won't do much extra explaining in this summary; I'll let the episode do the talking. Overall, what's important to remember is the mission. We are working to affect change for generations of people who have passed and many more who will come soon enough. That vision is what I took away from this documentary, what "BE U." is all about, and the purpose behind my efforts. I want a better society for us all. I want to pass on a better world to my children. It starts with us, with education, equity, and unity. It's our time! We everywhere!
