In this Not All Hood: conversation, host Candace Kelley sit down with Dr. Daniel Black and Guest Co-Host Kimberly Latrice Jones to examine whether Atlanta is still the “Black Mecca.” They unpack how Wall Street buy-ups, pricing, and displacement are changing the city; why HBCUs (Clark Atlanta, Spelman, Morehouse, etc.) continually fuel Black excellence; and how respectability politics and colorism shape leadership and aspiration. Jones previews her documentary Bye Bye Black Mecca and the larger Southern ecosystem of Black wealth and culture.
The episode crescendos with a moving tribute to Malcolm-Jamal Warner with personal memories and an on-air African libation led by Dr. Black ,centering legacy, love, and communal responsibility. Viewers get candid insight on homeownership vs. community building, multigenerational living, land, and redefining success on our own terms. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
