MKREWIND: History of Hispaniola (EP262)
from Minority Korner · host James Arthur M.
This week on Minority Korner we are going way back in time to a Korner from episode 3! Early on in the Minority Korner journey, such babes, who had no idea what lay ahead, but trust the racist bullshit was still there. Inspired by Guest Co-Hosts Glory Mora's Korner a few episodes ago, about the history of the Dominican Republic, we are going back to its genesis, along with Haiti's talking about the history of Hispanola and the first successful slave rebellion, and the ramifications from that still felt today, there, in the US, and around the world. Plus a bit of a time capsule, as for a bonus tangent we talk about the craziness that was the BET Awards in 2015. Sigh. Simpler times.
