On this week’s program, your host, Justin Mog, talks about repairing the racial wounds of the nation with a great panel of guests who are taking part in a special film screening and panel discussion coming up on Wednesday at the Muhammad Ali Center. With us this week are Xiao Yin Zhao, Executive Director of the World Affairs Council of Kentucky & Southern Indiana (http://worldkentucky.org); Kaitlyn Tisdale, Director of Interpretation at Locust Grove (http://locustgrove.org); and Randy Quarterman, one of the featured subjects of the documentary “The Cost of Inheritance.” Randy is a U.S. Army veteran and descendant of people enslaved by the Kellers in Savannah, Georgia. He co-founded the Reparations Project (https://reparationsproject.org/), which is the first project supported by the Quarterman Keller Foundation, to support Black education and legal land redress for Black families; to truth-tell; and to amplify Black voices. Randy also recommends the sites https://reparations4slavery.com/ and https://comingtothetable.orgIn recognition of Black History Month, on Wednesday, February 28th, at the Muhammad Ali Center, from 5:00-8:30pm (5pm reception, and 6pm film, followed by a panel discussion), the World Affairs Council is screening a film called “The Cost of Inheritance.” It is an hour-long documentary that explores the complex issue of reparations in the United States using a thoughtful approach to history, historical injustices, systemic inequities, and critical dialogue on racial conciliation. Through personal narratives, community inquiries, and scholarly insights, it aims to inspire understanding of the scope and rationale of the reparations debate. The event is free and open to the public, but you’ll need to register at http://worldkentucky.orgWe also discuss the history of enslavement at Locust Grove, right here in Louisville, where the Croghan family enslaved approximately 100 individuals between 1790 and 1856. These enslaved men, women and children were the heart of the farm. They cultivated the land, cared for the many animals, built and maintained the house and other structures, and tended to the most intimate needs of the Croghan and Clark families. At the peak of the farm’s operation in 1820, more than 40 enslaved people labored at Locust Grove. In 1849, the 22 enslaved individuals remaining at Locust Grove were emancipated by the will of Dr. John Croghan. However, those that were ‘freed’ from enslavement were then indentured for seven years before finally being released from bondage.As always, our feature is followed by your community action calendar for the week, so get your calendars out and get ready to take action for sustainability NOW!Sustainability Now! is hosted by Dr. Justin Mog and airs on Forward Radio, 106.5fm, WFMP-LP Louisville, every Monday at 6pm and repeats Tuesdays at 12am and 10am.
