À propos de cette écoute

 “Now What’s Happening”, was created by Corinthus Alston and Leon Wilson, during the year of 2020. We have known each other for many years, more than I would like to admit. 2020 was very challenging in many ways, it was the year of Covid, but it was also the ending of the Trump years. We were on the road to the next Civil War, with the “Black Lives Matter” movement gaining strength after a host of the police murders of young black man, and then came Covid.

We went from a year of revolution to the year of death. And then, if that wasn’t enough, the attack on the US Capital, “The Insurrection”. And through all of this family and friends started dying and we couldn’t even go to the funerals. We couldn’t hold our relatives hand and be with them through very difficult times. The order was shelter in place, we stop shopping, stop going outside, everything was delivered and things changed. Through this time Corinthus and I would speak on the phone daily. We had so many conversations about so many different things, and that’s how this video podcast was created. It was an effort to tell the stories of what happened, but use those situations as teachable moments to help us with what’s happening today and prepare us for tomorrow.Copyright CKJ LIVE Sciences sociales

      E17 - Black History Month - Representation and Black Culture
      Feb 24 2023
      Welcome to Now What's Happening Black History Month discussion with Leon Wilson and Corinthus Alston. In this video, we delve into the importance of representation for young black children, specifically through the media they consume.

      Leon shares his personal journey of buying black dolls for his daughter, and how it has positively impacted her self-image. We also explore the lack of diverse representation in cartoons and TV shows, and the impact it has on young black children.

      Additionally, we discuss the appropriation of black culture and the ways in which other cultures imitate black music, dance, and singing without proper credit or recognition. This is an important conversation for all to have, and we hope to inspire change and a greater understanding of the importance of black representation in all forms of media.

      Join us for this insightful and thought-provoking discussion, and let us know your thoughts!
