Here’s your special opportunity to be part of television history. I invite you to enjoy great television and enjoy the freedom of watching remarkable stories without the “cable cord” – all at a special introductory price. And a portion of every subscription goes to the United Negro College Fund.

Our Promise
BHN is the first and only true to life non-fiction network devoted exclusively to Black achievement in American life. We also feature classic Black films. We add fresh content daily

Three years in the making, Black Heritage Network – BHN.TV – is here for you. The story of Black achievement and excellence – truly American history – now available for the first time ever at a single full-time television destination – BHN.TV. A group of Americans has joined together in a commitment  to bring you the piece of the American television puzzle that’s been missing for years at an easy to find 24/7 channel – the first channel devoted to non-fiction programs that chronicle the Black American experience. Plus classic movies.


Finally, what you have asked for is here. TV that cherishes and celebrates the Black American experience. TV that doesn’t fill the day with caricatures and stereotypes of Black Americans.  TV that will bring a smile. TV that may brings tears with important memories. TV that you can be proud to have in your home and share with your children and grandchildren. TV that presents and preserves our history. Watch on your laptop, iPad, or flat screen TV with a Roku internet connection device.

BHN.TV was founded to bring you quality, relevant programming that reflects the Black American experience. The founders believe that it is time to step up and create one TV channel whose single mission is to be the first and only full-time television destination for the real stories of Black life in America. Black heritage is American heritage. BHN is a channel for all Americans and the world.

BHN Programming
BHN.TV offers powerful documentaries in our series Not So Long Ago. Joe Madison, the Black Eagle on SiriusXM’s The Power, introduces each documentary and puts it in the context of America in another time and how the subject affects our lives today.

Classic Movies in Black Retro Theater. Filmmaker Elvin Ross, Tyler Perry’s Music Director, introduces each film and shares important facts that make watching the film a special experience. 

Faith in America is a cornerstone of BHN.TV. In our series Faith on the Road we visit congregations around the country. In their own words, members and clergy reveal what makes that church unique and special and what each of us can learn from their success.

In addition, get motivated to act on your dreams and Live Better with Willie Jolley. Willie has been named one of the five outstanding speakers in the world. Willie lives by the life-changing message, “A Set-back is a Set-up for a Comeback.”

Weekdays, Joe Madison, the Black Eagle, speaks his mind and shines his light on a key issue of the day in The Madison Memo.

And enjoy our daily quiz Who Said That? on both Facebook and BHN.TV. You’ll find the answers and interesting information about the person quoted at blackheritagenetwork.com

And that’s just the beginning. We will be adding new content genres as we grow.
