African Americans: No History of Africans, No Rights in America: Conversation with Alvin Hayes


Have you ever thought about how history repeats itself? Do you ever notice some of the trends that happened in history are present in our current discourse? Are we doomed to repeat the failures of our ancestors? Or is there hope that something can be different, that we can change and not repeat the mistakes of our ancestors?  

Welcome to the Black and Raww Podcast, this week I speak with Alvin Hayes we reflect on black history within the US. Alvin has created the while black chronicles which are series of fictional stories based on historical events. Alvin and I discuss about of the books he has written, how racism has impacted his life and his characters, we touch on recent events in politics and society. For reference to the events we talked about:
