“I feel it is my moral obligation as a black artist to try to graphically document what I feel socially,” David Hammons said in 1969, one year before he made this haunting double self-portrait which appears in 'Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power,' copublished by D.A.P. and @tate as well as on the cover of 'The Soul of a Nation Reader,' published by @gregoryrmiller ⁠ ⁠ Titled “Black First, America Second” (1970), this body print and silkscreen on paper presents one version of the self that “clings to the stars of the national flag,” according to 'Soul of a Nation' originating curators Mark Godfrey and Zoé Whitley, “while the other self appears almost painfully cleaved by its stripes… [It] is an image both timely and resolutely of its time.” ⁠ ⁠ #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth #davidhammons #blackfirstamericasecond @vampirefriendly @markgodfrey1973 #soulofanationreader #soulofanation @zoe.whitley⁠ #blackpower #blackart https://www.instagram.com/p/Co2sldMpjqJ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

SIX TIME GRAMMY AWARD-WINNING SINGER & SONGWRITER BEBE WINANS GUEST HOST ON ABC'S "SOUL OF A NATION'S"

BeBe Winans

“Soul of a Nation” will focus on faith in its next episode with special guest host and six-time Grammy Award-winning singer and songwriter BeBe Winans. The episode will look at the state of the Black Church, the intersection of faith and abortion and examine the role of forgiveness in the Black community. Winans, ABC News’ Linsey Davis, Sunny Hostin, Byron Pitts, Deborah Roberts and David Scott lead the hour. It will feature an exclusive interview with television personality and comedian Nick Cannon, a conversation with Botham Jean’s family and two survivors of the Mother Emanuel mass shooting in Charleston, S.C. The new episode of “Soul of a Nation” airs Tuesday, March 16 (10:00 – 11:00 p.m. ET) on ABC. Episodes can also be viewed the next day on demand and on Hulu.

The faith focused episode of “Soul of a Nation” includes the following stories and conversations:

Pitts examines the history of the Black Church and the role it currently plays in the Black community as struggles for racial justice persist in these divided times. Through discussions with Baltimore pastors Harold Carter Jr. (New Shiloh Baptist Church), Heber Brown III (Pleasant Hope Baptist Church), Bishop Walter Scott Thomas (New Psalmist Baptist Church) and activist Lady Brion, viewers will learn about the past, the present and the future of the Church.

Roberts takes an in-depth look at the intersection of faith and politics on the issue of abortion. This segment features interviews with St. Louis pastor Michelle Higgins (St. John’s – The Beloved Community), Kawanna Shannon, a St. Louis Planned Parenthood worker who says she’s a devout Christian, and Cherilyn Holloway, an activist who believes that Black Lives Matter, but that the fight should also include Black lives that have yet to be born.

Featuring interviews with Polly Sheppard and Felicia Sanders, two survivors of the Mother Emanuel mass shooting in Charleston, S.C., members of Botham Jean’s family including Brandt Jean and Allisa Charles-Findley, and Senior Pastor at Mt. Zion AME Church Dr. Kylon Middleton, Scott investigates the complicated relationship between Black Americans and forgiveness in the wake of violence.

Hostin moderates this week’s “In the Kitchen” conversation with African Methodist Episcopal Church Bishop Vashti Murphy McKenzie, New York Times Op-Ed columnist and author of “The Devil You Know” Charles Blow and humanitarian and author of “Message to the Millineals” Rizza Islam about the mix of faiths in the Black community.

In his first network interview since the fallout over making anti-Semitic comments and espousing conspiracy theories, Cannon sits down with Davis to discuss his journey towards atonement, education and self-improvement.

Musical performance to be announced.

Bishop Vashti Murphy McKenzie

“Soul of a Nation,” the first broadcast network newsmagazine that aims to put Black life in America front and center, will present viewers with a unique window into authentic realities of Black life and dive deeper into this critical moment of racial reckoning. It will travel across the country, unpacking issues critical to Black Americans through intimate storytelling, and bridge the past, present and future through a variety of voices and experiences from athletes, entertainers, performers and screenwriters. Each episode will explore a specific theme, including spirituality, Black joy, activism in sports and the racial reckoning that erupted after George Floyd’s death, and familiar faces – performers, activists, scholars and clergy – will gather for an entertaining and provocative conversation “in the kitchen” about current events. A special performance featuring some of the nation’s greatest musicians or spoken word artists will close out each show.

“Soul of a Nation” is executive produced by Eric Johnson and Robe Imbriano, Chantre Camack serves as Executive Editorial Producer, James Adolphus is series director and Marie Nelson is the series creator and Senior Vice President of Integrated Content Strategy at ABC News.

“Soul of a Nation” is the latest original programming from ABC News which has a renewed focus on telling diverse stories across the news division. Previous programming includes the #1-rated “Juneteenth: A Celebration of Overcoming,” three-day division-wide series “Pandemic – A Nation Divided” on the disparity in race and class amid the pandemic, “America in Pain: What Comes Next?” on the protests and outrage across the country in response to the killing of George Floyd and police brutality and systemic racism against Black Americans, the month-long reporting series “Turning Point” and pre-election special “America’s Future: The Power of the Latino Vote.”

Betye Saar’s 1972 assemblage piece, The Liberation of Aunt Jemima reclaims the image of Aunt Jemima, juxtaposing her stereotypically smiling, docile nature as caretaker, as she is nationally known for as the face of the best-selling pancake mix, and arms her with Black nationalist imagery such as a rifle, African Kente cloth, and a raised fist. Rather than accepting ideas of Black female subservience rooted in slavery, as notioned by the cotton at the bottom of the frame, Saar renders the racist caricature, mammy stereotype and tokenism obsolete with symbols of pride and empowerment.

Barkley L. Hendricks’ riveting 1969 self-portrait—titled "Icon for My Man Superman (Superman Never Saved any Black People—Bobby Seale)"—is reproduced from 'Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power,' a book that we are proud to have published, and kept in print through many editions, since it came out alongside the groundbreaking TATE exhibition in 2017. ⁠ ⁠ “The work’s subtitle invites a declarative statement of solidarity with the Black Panther co-founder Bobby Seale,” co-curator Zoé Whitley writes. “But Hendricks makes evident another position: here we find the Black artist as superhero, painting himself into history rather than waiting for someone else to confer the honor upon him.” ⁠ ⁠ A staff pick for Black History Month and beyond.⁠ ⁠ Edited with text by @markgodfrey1973 & @zoe.whitley⁠ Contributions by @lindagoodebryant @cahansusan @davidc.driskell Edmund Barry Gaither, Jae Jarrell, Wadsworth Jarrell, Samella Lewis @samellalewisgallery⁠ ⁠ #soulofanation #blackhistory #blackhistorymonth #blackpower #blackart @tate https://www.instagram.com/p/Co2KD9QO1bQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

ABC NEWS’ ‘SOUL OF A NATION’ PRESENTS ‘SOUND OF FREEDOM – A JUNETEENTH CELEBRATION’ IN HONOR OF JUNETEENTH AND BLACK MUSIC MONTH

Sponsored by GEICO, the Special Features Live Performances and Interviews with Iconic Musicians Including Ciara, Jimmie Allen, Patti LaBelle, Jon Batiste, Marvin Sapp and More

Primetime Special Airs Friday, June 17, at 8 p.m. EST on ABC, Next Day on Hulu

In recognition of both Juneteenth and Black Music Month, ABC News’ groundbreaking “Soul of a Nation” series will air “Sound of Freedom – A Juneteenth Celebration,” a one-hour primetime special on Friday, June 17.

Sponsored by GEICO and hosted by country music star Jimmie Allen, “Sound of Freedom – A Juneteenth Celebration” brings together a mix of live performances and conversations with some of music’s biggest stars to highlight the contributions of Black Americans through jazz, gospel, hip-hop and more.

ABC News anchor Janai Norman explores the importance of ownership in music through conversations with GRAMMY winners Ciara, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. The special also features reporting from ABC News correspondent Rachel Scott, who introduces viewers to the all-Black production teams behind major artists and groups, shedding light on the many important off-stage roles in the industry. The special includes performances by GRAMMY-winning legends Patti LaBelle, Marvin Sapp and an unforgettable finale from Jon Batiste.

“Sound of Freedom – A Juneteenth Celebration” is co-executive produced by Catherine McKenzie and Quiana Burns. ABC News’ “Soul of a Nation” was created by Marie Nelson, senior vice president, Integrated Content Strategy, ABC News. This is the third year in a row that ABC News is producing a special to honor the history of Juneteenth.

“From gospel and country to jazz, rock and today’s pop hits, every genre of American music is influenced by the Black Diaspora and our stories of survival, joy, pain and resilience. We’re looking forward to taking viewers on this musical journey in one of our most significant specials yet,” says co-executive producer Catherine McKenzie.

“During the Middle Passage, throughout the Underground Railroad, the Civil Rights Movement and today’s racial reckoning, music has always been an instrument for storytelling, mobilization and justice,” says co-executive producer Quiana Burns. “This special put together by an amazing team is a must-watch for all viewers.”

My truth. Growing up I never once thought “that person doesn’t look like me.” I always thought “I can be whoever I wanted” This symbol (as well as many others) transcend color. If something inspires you so much that you have a burning desire to inspire others with it, my ideal of hope for you would be “I can do that.” not “But I don’t look like that..” ⚡️👽⚡️ 📷 @edwardwswanjrphotos Suit by @thejefx • • • • • #seattle #seattlewa #seattlewashington #seattleblogger #seattleartist #seattlepulse #seattletimes #seattlelife #seattlecreatives #seattleliving #seattlesuperman #supermansuit #supermancosplay #cosplay #cosplayersofinstagram #28daysofblackcosplay #blavity #blerd #afropunk #soulofanation #melaninpoppin #melanin #blackexcellence #blackmagic #blackboyjoy #beardgang #alphablackmen #ootdmen #blackbeardedmen #blacknerd (at Tate Modern) https://www.instagram.com/p/BfllfA9n3Cg/?igshid=lnre3afamiqh
