Wanda's Picks Radio Show

This is a black arts and culture site. We will be exploring the African Diaspora via the writing, performance, both musical and theatrical (film and stage), as well as the visual arts of Africans in the Diaspora and those influenced by these aesthetic forms of expression. I am interested in the political and social ramifications of art on society, specifically movements supported by these artists and their forebearers. It is my claim that the artists are the true revolutionaries, their work honest and filled with raw unedited passion. They are our true heroes. Ashay!

In honor of The 1811 German Coast uprising January 8-10, 1811, we rebroadcast interviews and conversations of Reenactors Nov. 8-9 with Dread Scott, artist, whose vision it was to restage a Reenactment of this historic event Nov. 8-9, 2019 along River Road into New Orleans. 

This revolt of enslaved African men and women in parts of Orleans Territory on the east bank of the Mississippi River occurred in what is now St. John the Baptist, St. Charles and Jefferson Parishes, Louisiana.

There were three shows, Nov. 20-27. This is the second show, Thursday, Nov. 21, 2019.
