Product Description
by Ernest Jackson (Author)
For decades, black radio was the second most powerful communication medium in the African American community. Driving the nation's civil rights movement, radio was their primary and most trusted source for news and information, creating social and political awareness among listeners. But in 1996, a shot was fired... killing black radio!
Shocking and revealing, Ernest Jackson, Jr. exposes who killed black radio in his story, Health, Heart, and Pocketbook. The culprit neutralized the progressive impact of black radio, transforming it from a fountain of critical content and community service to a mere jukebox where news and information became unimportant.
Named one of the top 25 African Americans in broadcasting, Jackson was present for the rise and fall of it all. He shares his memories, beginning from the first time he hosted a local radio station for communication students, progressing into a 28-year influential broadcaster.
Using humor and warmth, Jackson merges the unpleasant faces of racism, failed relationships, and life's chaos, with that of fond childhood memories of his mother, indulging in sweet cherries, and his love for photography.
