Description

In todays episode, we are kicking off Black History Month with some lesser-known parts of Black history in the United States. We start by discussing Dr. James Marion Sims' experimentation on Black slaves. We then move to the Tuskegee Experiments, and finally we discuss George Stinney Jr. and Emmett Till...two 14 year olds who lost their lives to this country's racist past. We also deal with our own conflicts with having to sometimes discuss some of the darker parts of our history. We thank you for your continued support.Support the showwww.civiccipher.comFollow us: @CivicCipher

Civic Cipher is a weekly radio show/podcast hosted by Ramses Ja and Q. Ward. This show is dedicated to empowering Black and Brown voices, allowing them to engage directly with their communities as well as the general population. Self-determination is critical to securing a future free of oppressive systems, and Civic Cipher exists to facilitate discussions toward this end. Furthermore, Civic Cipher seeks to inform non-POC allies who may not be privy to these types of discussions and optics. Finally, Civic Cipher seeks to provide long-form conversations in spaces where there is often a lack of significant resources, potent dialogue, or the necessary engagement for facilitating a healthy and productive civil discourse.Facebook/Instagram/Twitter: @civiccipher
