** We're still a bit under the weather this week due to colds and the flu, so here's a special flashback episode of the radio show for folks to listen to this week that falls right into place for Black History Month 2015 here in the United States! **
This is the latest episode of the syndicated FuseBox Radio Broadcast with DJ Fusion & Ausar Ra Black Hawk for the week of February 18, 2015 (originally broadcast on the week August 20, 2008) with some new and classic music from the international Black Diaspora, news and commentary.
During that week, we had a great interview with author Douglas A. Blackmon for his book, "Slavery By Another Name: The Re-Enslavement of Black Americans from the Civil War to World War II" (now currently out on Doubleday Books), which "brings to light one of the most shameful chapters in American history—when a cynical new form of slavery was resurrected from the ashes of the Civil War and re-imposed on hundreds of thousands of African-Americans until the dawn of World War II" by throwing Black Men, Women and Children into prison in the South for labor purposes under false pretenses to be arrested.
Feel free to check out more information about him and "Slavery By Another Name" the official book website, http://www.SlaveryByAnotherName.com.
Due to the interview, there was no new segment of Black Agenda Report and no Direct EFX segment.
