Le Soapbox
Le Soapbox is a podcast dedicated to informing young people, and particularly young black people, on subjects that affect us everyday. The phrase, “getting on your soapbox” is used for those who are sharing their views unabashedly on a given subject at a given time. Each week, while weaving in soundbites and clips from some of the greatest black minds we have ever heard, Baudelaire hops on his soapbox to dive into one topic or person specifically, to share some things you probably didn’t know while sharing some of his own views as well.

Episode 5
There is no black leader with a legacy more misconstrued than Malcolm X. There are even black people who feed into the idea that Malcolm was at best, an irresponsible black leader who's methods were not as effective, or rational as the peaceful Martin Luther King. Today on Le Soapbox, via his "Ballet or The Bullet" speech, Baudelaire clears up many misconceptions about the iconic leader and explains his political and economic philosophy at his time of death, Black Nationalism.
