Welcome to 1919Radio’s Black Geographies podcast series! This 4-part Black Geographies podcast series brings together four authors in the emerging field of Black geographies to explore the conditions of Blackness across multiple spatial dimensions. The goal of this series is to bring radical ideas of race, space, and the politics of place out of academia and into our community and streets through an engaging and open access medium.
In the first episode of our Black Geographies podcast series, Mohamed Nuur sits down with guest Dr Rashad Shabazz to discuss his 2015 book “Spatializing Blackness'' and the technologies of violence that continue to carefully contain, isolate, and restrict the free movement of Black people everywhere. They discuss urban geographies and public infrastructure as an extension of carceral power, the histories of anti-Black space-making from slavery to mass incarceration, the hyper surveillance of racialized cities, and the need to reimagine and recreate public spaces to reflect the basic needs of Black communities
