"Beyond Resistance: Black Liberation in 2025 and Beyond” w/ Nicholas Buckingham
"Exploring the future of Black liberation...where we are, where we're going, and what freedom truly looks like in 2025 and beyond."

We are diving deep into what Black Liberation means in our current era. No longer defined solely by struggle, our conversation moves from resistance to building, from surviving to thriving. Join us as explore how historical battles have paved the way for today’s fight for economic self-sufficiency, cultural sovereignty, and global solidarity. We’ll examine the evolution of Black Liberation movements from the days of protest and perseverance to a future where we control our narrative, harness technology, demand transformative change and HEAL!

Guest: Nicholas Buckingham: Co-Executive Director of Michigan Liberation, a statewide organization dedicated to ending the criminalization of Black families and communities of color in Michigan. At Michigan Liberation, Nicholas has been instrumental in campaigns such as the "Black Mama's Bailout," focusing on ending cash bail and pretrial detention practices that disproportionately affect Black communities. His leadership reflects a deep commitment to transforming the criminal legal system and healing communities from the trauma it inflicts.
