The Takeover w/ Ryan D. Davis
from As A Matter of BLACK Hosted by As A Matter of BLACK
We're kicking off the first episode of the year with an esteemed guest. Ryan D. Davis, a native of Little Rock, Arkansas, is a community advocate, nonprofit board member, historian, lead singer of The Fukanites, husband, father, and all-around cool friend. He stops by to discuss “The Embrace” sculpture that was recently unveiled in Boston, we talk about HBCU funding and athletics, and we each share 3 of our favorite book recommendations for Black History Month. Ryan really came with the history and the facts. Our most scholarly episode yet. Check out our book recommendations below and follow us on all social media platforms @aamob_pod.
