Why do Black people love Cadillacs? Let’s talk about it.

Let’s meet the social media influencers who are advising the White House on how to encourage more white women to have babies.

You know the name Mellon. Synonymous with wealth, philanthropy, and power. But do you know the story of its patriarch, Judge Thomas Mellon?

In the 1880s, he used his power to actively block a qualified Black man, George Vachon, from practicing law. He was a vocal white supremacist who believed racial equality was a "wild theory."

On the latest Trey's Table, we uncover this forgotten story of prejudice, power, and a man denied his profession. Link in Bio.

Let’s take a trip down memory lane.

Trey’s Table Episode 380

The Big Lie About Reconstruction

We've been taught a version of history that was designed to oppress. In Episode 380 of Trey's Table, we're dismantling the "Dunning School."

For decades, this school of thought dominated history books, pushing the false narrative that Reconstruction was a tragic failure—a period of "corrupt" Black leadership and "Northern aggression."

It was a deliberate, academic lie created to justify Jim Crow and white supremacy by slandering the progress made after the Civil War.

We have to understand these lies of the past to fight the misinformation of the present.

Why was Sean Grayson even allowed to be a law enforcement officer?

On Trey's Table #379, we're breaking down the trial of former Illinois sheriff's deputy Sean Grayson, who was recently convicted of second-degree murder for the fatal shooting of Sonya Massey.

Massey, an unarmed Black woman, had called 911 for help. We discuss the bodycam footage, the jury's verdict, and what this case says about justice, accountability, and the system.

Should we have an age limit for people who serve in Congress? Let’s talk about it.

Headline: Germany's Black Oasis: A Story You Haven't Heard

You know the story of World War II. But do you know the story of the Black GIs who stayed?

In the ashes of a Nazi regime that preached racial hierarchy, a remarkable community of Black Americans found something unexpected in post-war Germany: a complex form of freedom and opportunity that was often denied back home.

Their presence didn't just change their own lives; it fundamentally shaped how Germany sees Black people to this day.

In this week's episode of Trey's Table, we dive into this incredible historical pivot point. We explore:

✨ Why some Black soldiers chose to make Germany their home.
✨ The stark contrast between Jim Crow America and a rebuilding Europe.
✨ How this WWII-era encounter created the foundation for the modern Black experience in Germany.

This isn't just history; it's a story about identity, diaspora, and the search for belonging in the most unlikely of places.
