Was Slavery Bad?

On episode 93 of Native Land Pod, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, and Andrew Gillum are forced to remind all of us that slavery was, in fact, bad. Fitness trainer and TV personality Jillian Michaels was on Abby Phillip’s CNN show recently making some wild claims about how slavery wasn’t that bad, wasn’t just committed by white people, and wasn’t actually that big of a part of the country’s founding because “only 2%” of Americans owned slaves… We

The Racists’ Way to Redistrict | MiniPod

2025/08/08

On this week’s MiniPod, our hosts Angela Rye and Andrew Gillum gotta talk more about redistricting. Trump is putting pressure on Republican-controlled states to redraw their electoral maps in order to give Republicans more seats in congress, an anti-democratic practice known as gerrymandering. This practice typically undercuts the representation of the Black community and others, reducing political influence on a state and national level. Our hosts dig into the mechanics of how electoral maps

Tiffany Cross is away this week but she sent us a report from the ground in the DRC.

Black Culture, Gated by Whiteness | MiniPod

2025/08/01

Hosts Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Tiffany ask: Why Do Some Black People Feel Like “White is Right”? In too many folks' eyes, a thing ain’t good until it’s been adopted by mainstream (white) culture. The same news story that makes waves on CNN falls flat on BET. The same person buying a fancy sweater from Ralph Lauren will scoff at House of Gray. Black folks are not immune to this, those who automatically trust a white doctor (or other specialist) over a Black one, for

Jones hit the national political spotlight after being expelled from the Tennessee House for joining a gun control protest.
