This week, "At the Edge of It All" was joined by Kyle Brooks, assistant professor of theology and religious studies. He talked about the history of Black History Month, some of the lesser-known figures behind it, and why it was started in the first place and what it's become. He also talked about Black artists' unique place in American culture, including a discussion about Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Halftime performance.
