About Black Power Media



Black Power Media (BPM) is a Black-radical independent media collective: We seek to challenge the narrative about Black politics and the Black condition.
Renegade Culture, IMIXWHATILIKE, The Last Dope Intellectual, and future programming will deliver the news and information our community and others need to break through today's mainstream propaganda machine.
BPM calls truth to power and does not hold back on discussing what’s going on at the political, electoral, and grassroots levels of our communities, and provides ideological breakdowns and ways forward for our community.

The Last Dope Intellectual (#LDI) is an unapologetically Black radical left web show hosted by Dr. Charisse Burden-Stelly and produced by Dr. Jared Ball. #LDI offers covers a wide range of topics, including politics, current events, social media discourse, and knowledge production. The show is divided into a variety of segments, ranging from “Shoot the Shit,” which features Dr. CBS and Dr. Ball discussing whatever is top of mind for them, to “History of the Present,” where Dr. CBS discusses a Back radical quote and its relevance to the present, to “What I’m On,” in which she discusses her writing or research in progress and the accompanying struggles, issues, and accomplishments. #LDI also features interviews, book reviews, and opportunities for viewers to elicit advice from Dr. CBS and Dr. Ball.
