Host Genius Black opens the fourth episode of the Maine’s Black Future Podcast with a story of Sherman Kentucky Ferguson, a Lewiston resident and boxer who in 1931 was denied a marriage license to his white fiancée, outside of legal parameters. Sherman’s denial was noted by Black owned publications across the country, displaying the municipal level segregation some interracial Maine couples faced.
Later in the episode, Genius sits down with Portland resident David Patrick, a consultant, activist and educator raised in the Orrington, Maine area. The conversation spans topics from David’s childhood, recent accolades, and how he balances fatherhood and his mental health.
