Black Journal conducts an investigation of institutional racism with the aid of six Black scholars and philosophers in a two-program study entitled "Black Paper on White Racism." The first part surveys racism in the areas of history, education and Christianity. The investigative team includes Reverend Albert Cleage, pastor of the Shrine of the Black Madonna in Detroit; John H. Clarke, an associate professor of African and Afro-American history at Hunter College and author of 11 books including "Harlem USA"; and Preston Wilcox, head of the education workshop of the Congress of African People and president of the educational consultant firm AFRAM Associates.

Men like this need to be leading our community, fathering black children, and spreading belonging & truth everywhere they go. Black Women, these are examples of men who are deserving of a lineage.

This really takes me back. I can remember listening to Tony Brown's Journal which eventually this was renamed as I believe with different sponsors....ironically, we're still struggling with many of the issues discussed.
