Everyday Black Men

You’re Not the Main Character in Black America


Listen Later

In this passionate and humorous episode of the Everyday Black Men podcast, the crew and their special guest Antonio Michael Downing pick up where they left off and continue diving into a multi-layered discussion on African origins, diaspora divisions, and the controversial idea that not all Black people in the Americas arrived via slavery. Antonio Michael and Reed trade jabs over historical ledgers, cultural disconnects, and why some Africans arrive in America uninformed and overly critical. Sham pushes back with some theories on pre-slavery African presence in the Americas, citing the Mali Empire, crop migration, and suppressed Indigenous Black histories. The group navigates the politics of Kamala Harris, cultural colorism, and Boondocks references while also jokingly accusing Whyte Collar Suge of being a “heathen” with no lead role in Black America. With a mix of facts, theories, and comedy, this episode questions who gets to claim Blackness and how far we should trust the so-called “official” narrative.create a visual for this episode based on the below main topics You’re Not the Main Character in Black America In this passionate and humorous episode of the Everyday Black Men podcast, the crew and their special guest Antonio Michael Downing pick up where they left off and continue diving into a multi-layered discussion on African origins, diaspora divisions, and the controversial idea that not all Black people in the Americas arrived via slavery.
