The American Legends Series plus

"Black Heritage Network is the first Black TV channel built on non-fiction programming. We feature contemporary “in the moment” programming and Classic Black heritage. Viewers can consistently expect to enjoy a Black American focused  entertaining programming service consisting of in the moment programs dealing with contemporary real-life issues, documentaries, docudramas, interviews, news and movie programming, including current events and issues of interest to all Americans.
Black Heritage Network delivers originally produced content. An agreement is in place to develop programming with the National Basketball Association. Our first series in development is On and Off the Court, stories of basketball’s brightest stars on and off the court.  Access to 70 years of the CBS News archive enables us to bring viewers dramatic, historically significant interviews with pioneers like Malcolm X, Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington, Muhammad Ali and Walter Cronkite as he anchors the March on Washington. A slate of original series is also in production by the BHN creative team with 40 years of EMMY and Peabody award-winning top rated programming on CBS, A&E, Disney, Discovery, Bravo, National Geographic, and TLC.
Black Heritage Network is based in the Washington, DC area." - From http://www.blackheritagenetwork.com/



Although, in this blog, we will keep up with what going on at the Black Heritage Network (BHN), we will also dig deeper into important Black American legends, African, and African-American history, Black theology, and other issues important to those interested in Black Heritage.

We also will deal with current issues in light of Black Heritage. For example, what is the connection between the Trayvon Martin killing and the interaction of Black youth and law enforcement throughout American history?
