Basic Black - Boston’s New Pitch

This week on the show, we will discuss the tourism campaigns to attract diverse workers, visitors and businesses to Boston as well as highlight establishments owned by people of color in Boston and the surrounding cities. The swearing in of Black, Brown and LGBTQIA+ political leadership and the unveiling of the Embrace statue raises the profile of the city and inclusivity. However, criticism about Boston and racism remains a topic of conversation. Boston is not the only city with a history of racism, but it is a city with a persistent claim of being racist. Are the campaigns enough to shed the city’s history and issues of discrimination and offer additional opportunities for communities and businesses of color?

Guest Panelists:

Segun Idowu, Chief of Economic Opportunity and Inclusion, City of Boston

Hilina D. Ajakaiye, Executive Vice President, Meet Boston (formerly the GBCVB)

Adrian Walker, Associate Editor/Metro Columnist, The Boston Globe. He was also a member of the Spotlight team that reported on Race in Boston

Callie Crossley hosts.
