Great job gentlemen. Our cause speeds on its way 🤘🏾

The young brother mentioned his boss, Provost Dr. Tony Wutoh....Alphaman.🤙🏾🤙🏾

Eugene Kinckle Jones was officially recognized as a Jewel of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc., in 1952, despite his foundational contributions to the fraternity. The delay in his recognition is tied to historical circumstances and how the fraternity’s legacy was initially documented. Reasons for the Delay: 1. Initial Exclusion from the “Seven Jewels”: When the fraternity was formalized, the designation of “Jewel” was given to the seven men who were credited with being the original founders of Alpha Phi Alpha at Cornell University in 1906. Eugene Kinckle Jones, although pivotal in shaping the fraternity, was not included in the initial list due to a focus on the contributions of the seven undergraduate founders. 2. His Role as a Graduate Advisor: Jones joined Alpha Phi Alpha as a graduate student and played a significant role in organizing and expanding the fraternity. He helped write the fraternity’s constitution, secured its incorporation, and was instrumental in establishing new chapters. However, his status as a graduate member may have contributed to his being overlooked in the early years, as the fraternity emphasized its undergraduate origins. 3. Historical Reevaluation: Over time, the fraternity began to recognize the depth of Jones’s contributions to Alpha Phi Alpha. He was not only a leader in the fraternity but also a national figure through his work with the National Urban League. By 1952, Alpha Phi Alpha formally acknowledged his foundational role and officially added him as a Jewel of the fraternity. 4. Evolving Historical Perspective: The fraternity’s understanding of its history evolved as more attention was given to the contributions of those who were instrumental in its early success. The recognition of Eugene Kinckle Jones reflects Alpha Phi Alpha’s commitment to honoring its true founders and builders, even if they were not initially acknowledged. Contributions of Eugene Kinckle Jones: • Wrote the fraternity’s first constitution and bylaws. • Played a critical role in the incorporation of Alpha Phi Alpha in 1911. • Established several of the fraternity’s early chapters, including at Howard University and Virginia Union University. • Promoted the fraternity’s ideals of service and academic excellence. Jones’s recognition as a Jewel was a corrective measure to ensure that his legacy, which shaped Alpha Phi Alpha’s national and international influence, was properly honored.

Very focussed drummer. He had his zany side on 'Blues for Dracula'. My personal favourite.

One of the gems on KZbin. For anyone who wants to study and understand, this is how.

This just made my day❤😊, and im 63 years old

45:13 ain't no way he played that lick💀

Rest in Paradise Dr. Dawkins

This is a moorland gem !❤️

Alafia and Brandon, two of my favorite Moorland Family ❤️💛💚

Yes...

This this ever come out ?

I was hoping he was just going to answer every question with more drumming

25:51 Is what I always tell people who don’t “get” or “like” Jazz. And, especially those who say places like the UK produced the best music. No disrespect to England, but their rock music only copies America. And there’d be no rock without Jazz

This is so cool. 1. I've never seen an interview of Milt Jackson or heard him talk (maybe on a live recording). But this interview was done during the time my favorite album of his was made: It Don't Mean A Thing If You Can't Tap Your Foot To It; and you can hear it through his demonstrations here. Also very cool, him mentioning Cedar Walton, also on that album. Thank you for sharing this. Too cool.

This is priceless.

Exellent

This was great! Imagine they might have to more of those, they are 🔥 🔥

Mr Alfred Sloan has such an eclectic taste and style we can definitely say he is a modern-day Renaissance

Thank you very much for highlighting our custom jordan 1s. Shout out to @ultimiciti for his amazing job painting these and bringing our concept to life. Stay tuned

Well done, Cousin. WELL DONE. 🤘🏿✊🏿👊🏿

Such an interesting watch!

Notice how the brother said went to an HBCU but not necessarily graduate from an HBCU. I am a Howard University graduate class of 1995. Very very proud and love all of my HBCU. Nevertheless, I will always proclaim that Howard is the best in and at everything..

Thanks for posting this. I am starting to really discover the giants of Jazz and this oral history is so interesting to hear!

11:11 🎉🎉 “message received “ was the response I got from Devine , as i made a prayer request , that will be between myself , and Devine, for the spiritual blessings to be heard , between myself , and my family in jazz , and R n B. I’m happy I stumbled upon this legendary conversation, after seeing a post by my big bro , Quest Love❤ . Ty creator , for the longitude, and legacy , that is the rythym and sounds, created by our African ancestors, many of whom , took their musical gifts, directly from their ancestors’ roots , in the cotton fields , and pastures , as slaves.. turning the negro spiritual , into a full legacy , the “Roots” (Alex Haley ) of the complex beginnings , which translate into what is now , the “Hip Hop” era. It’s difficult to accept , for many “aristocratic white folk” that our day to day , is now truly immersed , in the sounds that come from a slave culture , that our forefathers created , tried to subdue , and submit, and eventually dominates our movies, television, and internet . Without slavery , you wouldn’t hear the emotional output , of what we hear, as sad as that fact is. Yet we can accept , and begin to forgive , one another, looking at the very real truth , that our combined energies , have no choice , but to move either into accepting the message of Christ , which is total submission , and forgiveness , of ourselves , our ancestors, and move into the light, or , stand stubborn in our agreement with the darkness, which is more war, more hate, and more desperation, and separation. I move to accept the light. Hopefully, your families’ will too. Join the conversation. Go to your local church community. Lean in, and love thy self.

I met Milt Jackson at Jazz mobile during at school 90’s.

Mr. Max Roach made the drums speak so many languages, awaken our ancestors and left the world with wealth of music that will last and will endure for the future. Mr. Brower asked excellent questions and I have learned so much...Great Job!!!

Very interested interview a great history tanks for sharing,

There is a Park in South London, England, UK, named after Max Roach, ( Max Roach Park ) Peace to all.

The King❤.

I am excited to hear the person who I believe knows more about the history of Howard University then any other person living or dead. He is one of the gifted minds of our times and a dear friend. And no one loves Howard University more than Dr. Winston.

Hello Teddy. Beverly Oliver here, sending 50th anniversary greetings and congratulations to Moorland-Spingarn Research Center. Great preview of what is to come. I'm looking forward to the series and the day we deposit the WHUR Oral History Transcripts into Moorland. Again, congratulations.

Most wonderful musician with great insights on origins of BeeBop!

Jean Michel basquiat brought me here 👑 enough said. Been learning about max. Thank you for uploading!

MAX WAS A REBEL. An insurrectionist of existence. A fighter is a fighter - a whiner stays a whiner .. Revolutionary art is a purifier of Soul.

This is too important not to hire a sound engineer!

The sound quality is so poor

poor audio and no CC (closed caption available) "Unprecedented" adjective never done or known before--Can the social construct of "Race" not be discussed for at least one panel? Whiteness is contagious...

You are correct, the crooked fbi will come after you rather in a social group or an individual “selling books”....THEY are evil, and Blacks are under surveillance by the fbi no matter what we do..

The Ibex, Ritz, clubs of the early 90's💯

medase, unfortunately could not make out what Dr. Lee was saying

Had to run it back and watch this again. Great conversation

Will this independent curriculum that Joshua Myers is talking about be in person and/or virtual?

I hope that question answer about silencing is shared because it needs to be heard by the masses because there are so many who believe that narrative.

🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿

Love this. Thank you so much for uploading it

I wasn’t at this particular event. Listening to it via KZbin, the audio is a little muffled. Thank you for putting this event on

Love this... what year is this from?
