About
With more than 125 episodes, our monthly broadcasts feature a panel from BlackProGen and friends discussing a myriad of topics in the world of genealogy from a Black and people of color perspective. Shows generally take place on Tuesdays or Wednesdays with exceptions. Schedule and topics subject to change. You can our episode archive by clicking here.
In 2020, we added our hosted Twitter meetup, #CREWChat, and History: Unscripted, a new series focused on current events and pop culture from a family history point of view.
