We are still receiving love from our Rising Waters, Rescissions & Risks . The feedback and reflections speak to the heart of our work—urgency, care and community. We’re grateful to know that the conversations we held are helping shape how HBCU radio is preserved, protected, and overall celebrated.

Thank you again to all of our attendees who shared how meaningful this work is. Your attendance and attention is what made this teach-in such a success. See you all next year! 🙌🏾

🎶From the band formations to the royal coronations, HBCU Homecoming traditions are more than celebration, we see them as acts of cultural preservation. Step shows, parades, tailgates, chapel services, alumni mixers and reunions are all traditions that seemingly safeguard our shared history, pride, and cultural identity. 💭

📻 At the HBCU Radio Preservation Project, homecoming reminds us that preserving HBCU legacies isn’t just about saving the past, it’s about celebrating how we keep history alive. ✨

Join us for the Rising Waters. Rescissions & Risks HBCU Radio Preservation Project 2025 Symposium & Teach-In, a powerful space to celebrate, reflect, and unite around the legacy of HBCU radio.

In this urgent moment, we’ve designated this year’s symposium as a teach-in, a time to honor the rich history of HBCU radio and the more than 1,000 hours of broadcast sound and 60 oral histories preserved through our collective work. A teach-in allows us to come together as a community — to listen, learn, and strategize about preserving HBCU radio:

🎙️ For our institutions.
🎙️ For our communities.
🎙️ For generations to come.

✨ Our Keynote Speaker this year is Dr. Karsonya “Kaye” Wise Whitehead, the founding Executive Director of the Karson Institute for Race, Peace & Social Justice, an award-winning host of Today with Dr. Kaye on WEAA 88.9 FM, and the President of ASALH.

We look forward to coming together with you in spite of the rising waters, recessions, and risks before us. Comment below if you have already registered. 🙌🏾⬇️

📍Will Tchakarides, our Assistant Director of Public History and Programming, and Oral Historian Vincentt Sutton recently traveled to conduct site visits at both Grambling State University’s KGRM 91.5 FM and Wiley College’s KBWC 91.1 FM. 📻

The visits included connecting with station staff, learning about the histories and current practices of the radio stations, meeting campus librarians to explore the universities’ archives, collecting materials from GSU Operations Manager Charlston Talbert, and witnessing students in action under the guidance of Dr. Natalie Hill at KBWC. 📚

We’re always honored to share in the celebration of HBCU radio and look forward to continuing our work with these incredible cultural institutions we know and love as our HBCUs. ✨

Check out the audio we gathered while on the trip in Slides 1 and 8🎙️📻
