The Origination of Black History Month on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

Black History Month often sparks an annual debate about the continued usefulness and fairness of a designated month dedicated to the history of one race. Criticisms include questions over whether it is appropriate to confine the celebration of Black History to one month, as opposed to integration of Black history into the mainstream education the rest of the year. The manner in which American schools fail to represent Black historical figures as anything other than slaves or colonial subjects, by which Black History Month reduces complex historical figures to overly simplified objects of hero worship. When the success of a people is just as poignant as their struggle and sacrifice.

But should Black History be relegated to just one month? How did it all begin?

Join host Tracy L. Bell for her commentary “The Origination of Black History Month” at 6:30 p.m. EST tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

Conversations Of A Sistah, Tracy L. Bell, Tracy L. Bell - Blog Talk Radio, Tracy L. Bell Host Conversations Of A Sistah, Women's Issue, Women's March

We’re Talking – “The Woman’s March” and Comedian Mo’Nique on Tonight “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

We’re back and tonight’s conversation is all about The Woman’s March and Comedian Mo’Nique.

People across the nation marked the anniversary of the historic Women’s March on Washington this past weekend. But for some women, the anniversary is another reminder of the shortcomings of the 2017 Women’s March. Last year critics made it painfully clear how the march centered on white women at the expense of women of color and trans women. Groups who many felt had more to lose under a new administration than any other human rights issues. But some underrepresented women felt their issues — such as racism, discrimination, police brutality, LGBT inclusivity, and immigration — were relegated in favor of issues that matter most to straight, white, middle-class women. We have to decide: Do we want equality and justice for a select group, or do we want it for everyone?

And my crew and I saw comedian legend Mo’Nique at Levity Live last Friday night, where she talked about her road to success and her boycott with Netflix. Our host is back and the Conversation is hot!!!

See you on the air!!!!

Our Year In Review on the next “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

2017 has been a tumultuous year for race relations, political changes, sex scandals and justices denied.

It’s that time of the year again, when “Conversations Of A Sistah” will review our hottest shows and in-depth “Conversations” of 2017. We’ve had some really great guest and hot topics this year and we need to review them all.

Our guest had great stories to share as well as their successes and accomplishments but how can we say or even decide “What specific show or guest was the best?” My staff and I couldn’t narrow it down, therefore we’re covering them all and still leaving it up to my loyal readers and listeners to resolve.

Join us at 6:30 p.m. EST on “Conversations Of A Sistah” via blog talk radio, as we look back on our year in review.

See you on the air!

Sexual Harassment &The Hypocrisy Thereof, Tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah”

The ReadyWriter

I’m BACK!!!!

Almost nothing is quite as simple as it looks. Certainly not sexual harassment and accusations thereof—as insiders at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences are well aware, with the expulsion of Harvey Wienstien following dozens of claims that he had sexually abused actresses and others over the years.

After banishing Wienstien at an emergency session, the Academy’s board of governors boldly declared an end to Hollywood’s silence about industry sex abuse. The expulsion, it said, was intended “to send a message that the era of willful ignorance and shameful complicity in sexually predatory behavior and workplace harassment in our industry is over.”? And it definitely is, with women coming out of the woodwork regarding sexual harassment in every wake of the industry and media, this topic is at the forefront. From the firing of NBC’s Matt Lauer to Congressman John Conyers, the shit is seriously hitting the fan!!

Join me tonight on “Conversations Of A Sistah” at 6:30 p.m. EST via Blog Talk Radio as we discuss “Sexual Harassment & The Hypocrisy Thereof.”
