A war on truth and thought has erupted in America pushing anti-intellectualism into the forefront of our society. Book bans and the vilification of scholars not only erodes justice, it erases history and undermines Black communities’ ability to tell the truth about their own lives.
In this week's edition of The Other Side of Change, Black Star Network contributors Jamira Burley, and Brea Baker deconstruct the insidious frontal assault on truth.
Wisdom Cole, the Senior National Director for Advocacy and the National Director of the Youth & College Division at the NAACP joins the conversation to discuss the backlash against Black truth-telling.
