3.11.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Target Fast Ends. Justin J. Pearson Slams Musk xAI Gas Turbines. Florida Anti-DEI Bill

A year-long national boycott of Target over its rollbacks on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion initiatives has ended. Until Freedom's Tamika Mallory will join us to discuss the success of the boycott.

The Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality has approved plans for 41 gas turbines at the xAI facility in Southaven. Tennessee State Representative Justin Pearson will explain why this decision has drawn criticism from local activists and advocacy groups, who argue that the approval process ignored public concerns and violated environmental regulations.

Mississippi's Incumbent Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith will face Democratic candidate Scott Colom, who won out over two primary opponents, in November.  We'll talk to Colom about his victory. 

And Georgia's special election to replace former GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene in Georgia's 14th Congressional District is headed to an April runoff. 

In Florida, State House Republicans have passed an anti-DEI bill that includes criminal civil penalties for elected officials.

3.10.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Black Voters Targeted With Misleading Mailers. Trump’s SAVE Act. Justin Pearson Calls Out GOP

A Black Republican is sending misleading mailers to Black voters in Virginia ahead of a crucial redistricting vote. We'll break down how this controversial campaign is trying to confuse voters and why civil rights groups are sounding the alarm.

The twice-impeached, criminally convicted felon-in-chief, Donald "The Con" Trump, is pushing to pass the SAVE America Act now through the Senate, to suppress your vote. More on that ahead.

Tennessee State Representative Justin J Pearson calls out a Tennessee Republican Representative who used the Holy Bible to justify slavery.

The Treaty of 1866 guaranteed Black Creek Freedmen full citizenship -- yet Muscogee Nation leaders still won't comply with this treaty, more than a century later. Civil rights attorney and Justice for Greenwood founder Damario Solomon-Simmons joins later to explain why the fight isn't over.

South Carolina Representative JA Moore calls out hypocrisy on Republicans over spending on a Confederate flag relic museum after pushing to defund state institutions.

And in Tonight's Black Star Network Marketplace, we'll speak with Ava, the Founder of Ava's Pet Palace who who turned her love of pets into a nationwide brand at just 8-years-old in 2016. 

 

And I have a lot to say about the MAGA folks who are pretending they cared about rev Jackson.

3.9.2026 #RolandMartinUnfiltered: Evolution Of Lynching. Virginia Fights Jan. 6 Lies. Black Unemployment Spike. MAGA & Jesse Jackson

A Mississippi civil rights group documented 70 modern-day lynchings in the South from 2000 to 2025, though historians say the last official lynching was in 1981. The founder of JULIAN, the non-profit behind the report, is here to discuss these findings.

The economic slowdown is affecting the black unemployment rate alarmingly. Morgan Harper will be here to explain the February job numbers. 

Women- and minority-owned businesses were removed from the Texas Historically Underutilized Business Program in December, and are suing the Comptroller, Kelly Hancock, who argued he was ending a DEI program.
