    Irrelevant
    Sound like mainstream
  • Lorenzo_M
    Don't Miss This
    This weekly hour of earnest Black-left political analysis has offered me (a privilaged white male) a valuable crash course in the whole spectrum of topics covered, from political prisoners to Black community control of the police to young academics' stimulating research, etc. I don't always agree with the show's positions on electoral politics - I feel they were too quick to dismiss Bernie and what he represented as a challenge to corporate Democrats - but I still feel very honored to spend an hour each week with Glen Ford and his guests.
  • KOKEBB
    So thankful I found this pod
    Thank you for the work being done here! Black run media focused on the discussion of issues directly affecting the black community is exactly what we need!
  • Vyse Storm
    Great show!
    Excellent!
  • CSSOMH
    Exemplary Journalism
    Thank you for sharing! This radio is among the most provocative and progressive. Recommend it only to folks who want to be informed and liberated.
  • Feargus OConnor
    Tight
    A strong, black perspective with integrity and commitment that you won’t get anywhere else. When you listen to BAR and Glenn’s guests, you realize how much of the rest of the media ( including podcasts) is waste product.
  • alex k pharmd
    The most important podcast out there
    I’ve been listening to Black Agenda Radio since 2011 and it is the most consistently insightful, significant and courageous analysis you will find out there. If you don’t listen, you’re missing out!
  • e_flora
    Educational and well-researched podcast
    People who have rated this show poorly have not even listened to it. This is a great podcast and offers a valuable perspective.

  • Tomyamg00m
    Essential analysis.
    Essential weekly listening. For anybody that is intelligent .......or not but wants to compensate by being informed. That should be all of us.
  • crazy bob 1930
    Fact checking
    It is the responsibility of every person educate themselves with the truth. This is not the truth. Look for another source.
  • Elgringorumbero
    Insightful and indispensable
    You won’t find this level of analysis anywhere else and, if you’re not getting it, then you really don’t know what’s going on.
  • stevo795
    No facts
    Doesn’t take long to grow sick of the low quality. Very little credibility to what they say. Not to mention the hosts have grating voices and they seem to scream into the mic. Literally sounds like 1960s equipment. America hating radio can’t afford good stuff I guess.
  • chumly
    One of the go-to podcasts for truth
    Glen Ford and company have been providing years of truth-telling to this middle-aged white radical dad to impart to his children so that they may understand reality. Thank you BAR!
  • Abeng Man
    Why are all things Black so offensive?
    I was Reading a review castigating black agenda radio. It’s seems individual was offended by the idea of a black agenda. They have been privileged so long they are unable to access their privileged. They become offended at the slightest hint of solidarity of the oppressed class, who they view as No longer oppressed, which soothes the cognitive dissonance they experience when then observe melanated people doing what humans do; band together for their common good!

    Five Stars for Black Agenda Radio
    I stumbled upon BAR when searching for an outlet that served as the voice of the people. I truly appreciate BAR for the insight and knowledge of what is going within the AFRO nation and our movement. Thank you.
  • Fugazinut
    Listen
    Great show. Everyone should listen.
  • Jonathan HobbyRX
    Left prespective?
    I was pleasantly surprised that this podcast is critical of the Left and is not blindly beholden to the Left.
  • deb76376
    Love it
    This is my favorite podcast. Great interviews, courageous views, not for the faint of heart.
  • Nick62956
    Great Stuff
    Always interested in hearing more and more from the "black-left perspective".
  • HistoryBuff
    Excellent Show, Check it Out
    Great work, here. Informative and essential listening. To those reading the reviews, cast a suspicious eye on those making analogies based on "reverse racism" arguments, as they haven't listened to the podcast. It's a thought provoking and insightful show, keep it up!
  • JAM III
    Great Radio Show
    This show offers a perspective on American society and the Obama presidency that is enlightening and informative.
  • Phil from Queens
    Great Show!!!
    This is a wonderful, thought provoking show. I've been listening to this for the past year on PRN network & I've never been disappointed in the content. They discuss stories that you will probably never hear anywhere else. It's true from "...a Black, left..." perspective. Free thinkers will not be disappointed.
  • TLSESS
    Great Show!
    Makes My Mind Get It On And Poppin!

    ....Lancev32 is a Tea Party activist that goes online to make derogatory comments about left publications, broadcasts and blogs to declare warfare on people of color and progressive whites by using language such as "racist" only because the people who produce such material acknowledge that they are Black. It’s Interesting that these same types defined African people as Black and try to claim racism because we acknowledge ourselves as such. Fox News just uses that as a euphemism; it can just as well be called White Racists Nationalists News. People in the Tea Party and other right wingers love to criticize Black people for not being self sufficient, but when we assert ourselves to bring some self sufficiency they become threatened. Malcolm X said it best: they cut your wings and accuse you of not being able to fly. That's how these types maintain their unfair and unearned advantage/privilege. Black Agenda Report has various guests that provide valuable information for Black and all people who care about social justice that you will never hear anyone else. The podcast is highly recommended for anyone (not just Black people) who wants real news from grassroots activists and on-the-ground leftist organizations.

    Fantastic Radio Show
    As a white male I can say this radio show is not at all racist. It's an excellent examination of the political landscaping affecting all Americans. The show focuses more on the African American struggle sure, but how is that different than any other radio show? If you advertise yourself towards a particular audience you're going to focus more on that demographic. To call the show racist is completely ignorant. I am a regular listener of this show and many other shows on PRN.
  • Kingviper
    The Positive black Agenda
    This podcast has great news storys both political and comunity focused that dig to the core issues affecting African Americans in politics and comunitys brings me up to date and and a little more up to speed.
  • hotlocs
    "WHAT DOES IT MEAN?"
    Just because the radio show says it's name "OPEN" and "HONESTLY" it is racist? In the history of this country there has never been an open proclamation such as "TAKING OUR COUNTRY BACK" Just because the President is black, the country went somewhere? Look at "ALL" issues before you start saying something is racist.
