Five years ago today, Sandra Bland died while in custody after she had been unlawfully stopped and arrested. Like too many other Black women, her life was cut short by state violence.

Today, we remember Sandra Bland as an outspoken change agent for social justice and equality. Saying her name is important because Black women and girls are also affected by police violence. #rememberingsandrabland #sandystillspeaks

On the final day of the National Black Writers Conference hosted by the Center for Black Literature (the only center for black literature in the United States) and directed by Dr Brenda M Greene (NWBC Conference Director and host of Writers on Writing, which is recorded at the studios at Medgar Evers College and plays in our 24./7 rotation as well as on Sunday evenings at 7PM on WNYE 91.5FM), it ended with "A Conversation with Michael Eric Dyson and Khalil Gibran Muhammad: Writing Race, Embracing Difference," and for all those who missed this extraordinary and historical event for our black community, here is an excerpt of the discussion on race.

Not only is Carolyn Jones a professor at Medgar Evers College, and the radio show host and the producer of "New Dimensions," which is one of the many cross-cultural shows you might hear on wmecradio.con which features 24/7 talk and music programs, but she kills it on the jazz tip with the Medgar Evers Jazz Ensemble. You want to get more in depth with her "Angel Eyes?" Tune in this Sunday to WNYE 91.5 FM, at 6:30pm when Medgar Evers College Radio brings to you, New Dimensions on the FM dial. #medgarevers #medgareverscollege #medgareverscollegeradio #carolynjones #newdimensions #wnye #radioshowhost #producer #jazzsinger #vocalist #medgareversjazzensemble #jazzyjazz #drumolu #brooklyn #nyc #cuny

About the Station

In 1972, using donated equipment from the Model Cities Program, Dr. Mary Umolu was awarded a grant to establish Medgar Evers College Radio, which began to broadcast over WNYE 91.5 FM reaching the tri-state area.

From that point on, Dr. Umolu dedicated her time and

unrelenting energy to transform the fledgling radio station into its current state as a successful communications vehicle for the students of the college, the Central Brooklyn Community, and beyond.
