#mondayswithmelba with Tony Lesesne! Did you know that The Chicago Defender, a Black owned newspaper, was critical to African Americans leaving the South to find jobs in the North during the Great Migration of the early 1900s? We chat about the history/reach of Black media, how best to support and its continued relevance today - you don't have to be a person of color to benefit! Learn more about Black Owned Media Alliance (brainchild of Dexter A. Bridgeman)-- like, share and comment on this chat!
