”Hidden Figures” & Black Freethinkers w/Chris Cameron

For the second episode we discuss the power of myth making about "overcoming" the Civil Rights era and how cultural revisionism distorts our view of Black political movements and the people who have participated in them. Author and Professor Chris Cameron (Black Freethinkers, UNC Charlotte) joins from the Legacy program as our special guest. Hosted by Rogiérs (artist/activist & director of BSC), this podcast uses an Africana studies framework to examine and celebrate the history of religious dissent in Black communities. It also serves as the companion podcast to the "LEGACY series" (available on YouTube) produced for the Black Secular Collective-DC with support from the American Humanist Association.  ______________________________ (Ep. 2) Host: Rogiérs  Writing & Narration: Rogiérs  Production & Editing: Fibby Music Group, LLC Opening performed by Rogiérs, Reginald & Alesandra Ndu Recorded at: FMG Studios, Washington, DC Cover Artwork: Emily Wilson Music Licensing/Episode Musical Credits: Fibby Music Recordings, Storyblocks Resources, Contributions & Mentions: Norm Allen, Jr. on Black Freethinkers "Mississippi Goddamn", Nina Simone Overjoyed Live in Japan (1997) feat.
