Remember those trucks that use to ride through our neighborhoods spraying "pesticides"- turns out Big Momma was right. It wasn't pesticides the government was spraying it was cancer-causing chemicals and black bodies were the test subjects. 

This episode discusses what happened in a St Louis community and how the government used us as test subjects AGAIN. The government has admitted its actions here yet neither compensation nor reparation has been introduced.

Listen to actor and film-maker, Damien D Smith, discuss his new documentary Target St Louis Volume 1 and the horrible things they did to us.

Follow Damien and learn more about his film on their website (https://4910rosalie.com/) and make sure to engage with him on social media IG @4910rosalieprod.

Sharing information and teaching is what we do here at While Black.  Because of that, we are excited to introduce you to a new podcast that will expose you to an important story you probably don't know anything about.  Welcome to Unfinished: Deep South. Read below for a description and listen to this episode for the trailer.

The 1954 lynching of Isadore Banks is one of the nation’s oldest unsolved civil rights cases. Unfinished: Deep South is a new podcast opening the case back up to find answers to this fading mystery — and help us come to terms with the unresolved legacy of racism we’re still living with.

Hey While Black - This special episode is actually an episode of the Mothers Quest Podcast featuring me (Vince) as a guest. Julie and I discussed the importance of allyship and partnership as we try to create a world that is better for us as black people.

I'm sharing this because its a conversation that you will understand and honestly one that many of you have had recently as new people enter black spaces to learn from our perspective. I hope you enjoy and benefit from it. 

Lastly, Julie at Mothers Quest does a great job of delving into topics that you may find both interesting and beneficial. Plus a slightly different perspective can be a good thing when it's delivered with care. I recommend that you visit her site and take a listen.

The courtroom is a powerful place and the impact it has on us is broad and far reaching, but how much do we know about the players that participate. The judge, the prosecutor, the defense all have an impact on the outcome. Knowledge is power, yet most of us sit pretty uninformed about the reality behind the roles.

Today you are made powerful by the information that our guest, Fulton Country (GA) Judge candidate Shermela Williams, lays out for you. THIS IS ONE OF OUR MOST IMPORTANT EPISODES!

You cannot truly improve the system or improve the system if you do not understand the system.
