Show Notes
I have been doing a series on social media for 5 years called Badass Black History and I have never brought it to the podcast so this year I took the social media audio and wanted to put it in pod format so it will live forever. Hopefully this encourages folks to go research and find their own Badasses from history.

Black people are being found hanging from trees in the south....in 2026. And it has led a discussion around lynching, its history, law enforcement distrust, and overall anger from the Black community. Would a Black person hang themselves from a tree? Let's talk bout that and the history of lynching in the United States.
There have been 45 presidents in US history and 40 of them are dead. But how did they die and what did they say before they did?
