The Black Perspective: August 24, 2025

This week on the Black Perspective, Esther Dillard spotlights Black Business Month with Falayn Ferrell, one of the founders behind the celebration, and a restaurant owner whose story ties food and culture together in a unique way.

We’ll also preview Vanessa Tyler’s upcoming Black Land podcast and revisit BIN commentator Mo Kelly’s conversation with actresses Wendy Raquel Robinson and Tisha Campbell about their latest film, Operation Aunties.

Doug Davis may be on assignment this week, but we’re replaying two of his standout conversations: one with Tulsa’s first Black mayor, Monroe Nichols, and another featuring Vanessa Tyler’s sit-down with BIN President Tony Coles reflecting on the network’s five-year anniversary.

Plus, we close out with commentary from Mo Kelly, James T. Harris, and Roland S. Martin.
