Black History Is American History

Black History Is American History

Today, we’re walking the streets of one of America’s fastest-growing and most recognized small cities—but we’re doing so with intention. Our guide is Kendra Williams, a South Carolina native, Greenville resident, and dedicated tourism professional who’s on a mission to ensure that the city’s Black history—American history—is seen, heard, and never forgotten. While Greenville has a rich and complex Civil Rights legacy, much of it has been overlooked or left untold. Kendra is helping to change that. Through her work, she’s shining a light on the stories, landmarks, and lives that have shaped this city—stories of resilience, resistance, and community that deserve a permanent place in Greenville’s narrative. Whether you're a local, a visitor, or someone who believes that history must include every voice—this conversation will open your eyes to the past and challenge you to see your city through a new lens.

Distinguished Gentleman's Ride

In this bonus episode, we’re taking a ride—literally and figuratively—into a global movement that’s as stylish as it is meaningful. We’re talking about The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride, a worldwide charity event where classic and vintage-style motorcycle enthusiasts suit up, saddle up, and ride out to raise awareness and funds for men’s health—specifically prostate cancer research and mental health initiatives through Movember. This episode isn’t just about motorcycles, tweed jackets, or polished boots—it’s about the power of community, the importance of showing up, and how one ride can ripple out into real, lasting impact. Whether you’re a rider, a supporter, or simply curious about how dapper style meets purpose, you’re in the right place. So polish that helmet, straighten that bowtie, and join me as we dive into the story behind The Distinguished Gentleman’s Ride—what it stands for, how it started, and the passionate people who keep its engine running.

In Their Own Words: Lessons from Three Determined Entrepreneurs

Over the last several years we have had so many diverse and fascinating conversations from business owners that are champions of their various industries and specialities. I wanted to go back and revisit some of these brilliant, persevering, and community driven entrepreneurs.  The first episode we are going to revisit is from our first season a conversation with the brilliant Vicario liquor creator, Renato Vicario. Since our episode, I am sad to report that Renato has passed. I feel so blessed to have had the chance to capture his history in this episode.  Full Episode [https://open.spotify.com/episode/6VpgKw8bzVB51afp3vq6zN?si=1561e09f3dd8440c] The second episode we are revisiting is also from our first season. Musgrave pencil is a 107 year old pencil company based in Shelbyville TN, a real American company. And Henry Hulan, grandson of the founder join me to share the highs and lows of being in business for over 100 years. Make Musgrave our go to for unique customized American Made gift of cedar pencils and more.  Full Episode [https://open.spotify.com/episode/5lySpGnbdTRBMjMPdnq0yl?si=bcbbb96397304542] This last look back comes from season 2 when I had the chance to host a full season with Hawaiian business owners. Sitting down with Duke Sparks was such a joyful experience. His refusal to give up or have a plan b as a restaurant owner is I believe one of the keys to his success. If you have not heard this episode previously I think you are going to love this highlight from our episode, because Duke’s mindset is contagious.  Full Episode [https://open.spotify.com/episode/7acl1ZaNu1pUGddSoDC209?si=8d2ab05127014a46] Advertisers Overworked?
