Today, on #BLKFLA, we have the amazing Haley Morrissette aka DJ Hale on with us. During "What We Talm Bout," we discuss how North Florida has the highest population of Black folk in most of its counties along the I-10 corridor, but it's not reflective in its representation on a state, county, or municipal level. We explore briefly how to build Black Power in North Florida through working in rural areas of the region.
We then dig deep into Hale's Story of Self, exploring her family's history of Black Excellence in Pensacola, her stake in organizing and building Black Power in the Florida Panhandle, and why July 5, 2019 and June 6, 2020 are important dates in Pensacola Black Liberation history. We also make a special announcement about the future of #BLKFLA THAT YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS.
