Power to the People, Y’all
The late 1960s and 1970s were marked by the emergence of radical and revolutionary political movements in America. The common narrative places much of the action in major urban centers like Chicago, New York and the San Francisco Bay Area. But a new documentary film is challenging that story by highlighting the incredible history of the first Black Panther Party chapter in the South, which was located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Featuring: Tressie McMillan Cottom, professor at UNC-Chapel Hill, opinion columnist at The New York Times, and director of the documentary film Power to the People, Y'allLink: For screening info and announcements about Power to the People, Y'all visit the film's official Instagram page. We are hosting free a virtual event on Thursday, June 18th. Join us to find out how the podcast gets made each week and how we choose our stories.
