Sundown Lounge No. 246

This week's Sundown Lounge podcast takes Black History Month as its theme. This is a consistently great podcast, but this is a particularly good episode. Thanks to Larry Winfield for drawing my attention to some interesting music, as well as the following videos.

First of all, here's Morgan Freeman's take on the concept of Black History Month. You can see his point, but also you can see how it's an insult to all the people who campaigned for Black History to be recognised as a legitimate part of "history" in the first place.



Secondly, here's a clip from a documentary on Black History presented by a young Bill Cosby:



Nice one.
