Trey’s Table Episode 280: Erasure
🚨 NEW EPISODE 🎙️
The Trump Administration’s Attack on Kevin Young & Black Cultural Memory
On the latest episode of Trey’s Table we dive into the disturbing recent efforts by the Trump administration to undermine Kevin Young renowned poet, scholar, and director of the Smithsonian’s National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC).
Why target a poet and historian? Because Black cultural memory is power and this administration knows it. From attempts to whitewash history to attacks on institutions preserving our stories, this is about more than one man—it’s about who controls the narrative of America.
🔊 Tune in now and let’s discuss:
✔️ The significance of Kevin Young’s leadership at NMAAHC
✔️ The broader political assault on Black history & institutions
✔️ Why defending Black cultural spaces is a fight for our future
