In this special farewell episode of Back2Basics on Metro, we pause to reflect on a meaningful milestone and a new beginning. Recorded on April 20, 2026, this episode follows the 14th anniversary of the Back2Basics Magazine launch on April 19, 2012, and marks the final show airing on Metro.
What began as a vision to inspire and inform has evolved into a platform for community conversations, storytelling and connection. In this episode, we reflect on that journey, express gratitude to Metro as a home for the show and share what it means to step into a new season of growth and expansion.
Listeners will also hear from Stephanie Tavares-Rance, founder of the Martha's Vineyard African American Film Festival, whose story was recently shared during a Colorado Women's Chamber of Commerce event, offering inspiration rooted in purpose, creativity and community.
This episode is a thank you, a reflection and a reminder that while this chapter is closing on Metro, the mission continues. Keep having the community conversations that matter!

In this special Black History Month and Presidents’ Day episode of Back2Basics, host Brittany Winkfield reflects on how Black history is lived and celebrated every day through leadership, culture, creativity and courage. From attending the Grammy Awards and witnessing powerful moments of representation on a global stage, to spotlighting the stage play Happy 2B Nappy written and directed by Kenya Mahogany, a celebration of self-love and identity inspired by Bell Hooks, we explore how storytelling continues to affirm and uplift Black voices. The episode also highlights the courage of journalist Georgia Fort, who was recently arrested while covering a protest, underscoring the ongoing importance of press freedom and accountability. Georgia’s story is a reminder that Black history is something we are actively shaping in music, media, theater and community every single day.
