Oppenheimer, The Missing Blacks, and The Bomb with Historian CR Gibbs

Oppenheimer, The Missing Blacks, and The Bomb with Historian CR Gibbs

The film "Oppenheimer" raked in $80.5 million in the United States on its opening weekend. In the international market, it took in about $93 million for a total of more than $174 million, according to BoxOfficeMojo.


The cast list for the $100 million "Oppenheimer" mentions only one Black scientist.


The movie purports to show a critical time in the life of Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb. In one of the greatest scientific efforts during WW II, the Manhattan Project marshalled the efforts of over 200,000 scientists, technicians, and workers and helped win the war by dropping two nuclear bombs on Japan.


Was the only Black in the movie the only one in real life involved with the project? Who was he and what did he do? To answer these and other questions about Blacks and the bomb, we have as our guest, author, lecturer, popular Port of Harlem contributor, and historian of the African diaspora, C.R. Gibbs. ________________

Gershom Williams, Sr explains this environment, the players, and Firmin's response.

April 29, 2021 Tony Browder and Nathan Richardson - Restoration Project in Egypt / New restrictive voting laws in US

April 29, 2021 Tony Browder and Nathan Richardson - Restoration Project in Egypt / New restrictive voting laws in US

Through the ASA Restoration Project that he started in 2008 to honor the legacy of the late Dr. Asa Hilliard, Tony Browder has raised funds for the excavation and restoration of two 25th dynasty tombs that Dr. Elena Pischikova discovered in Luxor, Egypt in 2006. (Hilliard was a professor of educational psychology who focused on indigenous ancient Egyptian history.)

Both Pischikova and Browder disagree with traditional Egyptologists that claim that the 25th dynasty was the "only" time that Black kings ruled Egypt. Nevertheless, Browder adds, “Our mission is to eventually excavate all three tombs, catalogue our findings, and clean, conserve and restore the tombs to their original condition.”

The work is hard he explained in 2011, "we work in 100 to120 degree temperatures and in pits 20 feet below the surface."  On the next Port Of Harlem Talk Radio, he talks more about the Project and it’s success.

Browder is working on a new book that will explore the architecture and exhibits within the NMAAHC, “An African Ark: The Architectonics of the National Museum of African American History and Culture.” It is due in July 2017.
