Make It Plain Podcast

Every Week We’re Making Plain What’s Happening in the Black World and Interviewing Guests You Need to Hear. - We launched S2 of the Make It Plain (MIP) Podcast to coincide with the historic founding of the Organisation of Afro-America Unity (OAAU). Malcolm X announced the establishment of the OAAU at a public meeting in New York's Audubon Ballroom sixty years ago, on June 28, 1964. - Make It Plain (MIP) is an independent media platform, the editorial wing of Harambee OBU (HOBU), and a go-to-hub for Black radical politics. - The host, Kehinde Andrews, teaches as a professor at Birmingham City University (BCU) where he co-led with Dr. Dionne Taylor the set-up of the first and only award-winning Black Studies BA + MA program in Europe, the chair of the Harambee Organisation of Black Unity (HOBU), and editor-in-chief of Make It Plain. He is the author of "Back to Black: Retelling Black Radicalism for the 21st Century" (2018), its prequel "The New Age of Empire: How Racism and Colonialism Still Rule the World" (2021) and his latest "The Psychosis of Whiteness: Surviving the Insanity of a Racist World" out in Sept 2023. - W: www.make-it-plain.org, www.blackunity.org.uk IG: @makeitplainorg @kehindeandrews @harambeeobu X: @makeitplainorg @kehinde_andrews @HarambeeOBU - Written and hosted: Kehinde Andrews Executive production: Weyland McKenzie-Witter Coordination, socials + publishing: Oliver Luke Taylor Socials input: Djeneba Deby Bagayoko YouTube: Kadiri (Kehinde's son) Theme music is "Patience" by Weyland McKenzie and AyChibs
