Text the showThis Black History Month, I am joined by guest narrator Ella Bussie to read a powerful poem by France Ellen Watkins Harper, written in 1858. This poem was written before the emancipation of the slaves and speaks to the heartbreaking bravery that was shown to speak against evil. I also ask Ella a few questions about what it means to be black in America, her personal struggles, the leaps we've made as a nation, and hopes for the future.Ella can be found here: Instagram @ellabussie and TikTok @officiallyellaSupport The Poe Show! https://ko-fi.com/thepoeshowWebsite: https://www.thepoeshow.com/Episode music and narration by Tynan Portillo.Horror Movie Reviews on The Poe Show YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@thepoeshowpodcastBluesky: thepoeshow.bsky.socialTikTok: @poeshowpodcastInstagram & Threads: @thepoeshowpodcastEmail: [email protected] music by Emmett Cooke on PremiumBeat.Support the show
