Show synopsis

Upon the 50 year anniversary of the historical events of these two famous Black women (Chisholm’s campaign for the presidency of the U.S. and Davis’s Trial for conspiracy to murder); comes “1972” by highly acclaimed, independent audio drama creator, Yhane Washington Smith. “1972” is an eight-part historical audio drama series detailing the powerful story of these two amazing Black women in U.S. history.

The show portrays the true story of Black women empowerment; of two African American women who refused to be ignored and silenced by a society too comfortable with the status quo.

Our goal is for you to be entertained, educated, empowered, uplifted and love the amazing stories of Black women in U.S. history! Written and independently produced by Yhane Washington Smith an A’ Lelia Bundles Scholar at Columbia University and ten time LMCC grantee.
