Today on NFL Total Access, I am joined by 13-year NFL Veteran Jason McCourty who hosts this year’s NFL 360 BHM special. Also joining us is Emmy Award-winning producer Osahon Tongo, as we delve into two remarkable stories that echo through time.
First up, "The Flyest Ever", the history & legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen and the untold tales behind these pioneers who soared through the skies against all odds.
Then, we journey to "The Chief Who Walked the Sea," an 1803 slave rebellion set against the backdrop of the birthplace of NFL legend Jim Brown. Jason McCourty and Osahon Tongo share their insights into this forgotten chapter, exploring the resilience and resistance of those who chose freedom over enslavement.
Join us for a captivating episode that transcends football, delving into two pivotal periods of American history. These are stories that need to be told and narratives you need to hear. Don't miss the NFL 360 Black History Special, premiering on NFL Network Tuesday, February 6th, at 8 PM ET.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
