Ep 19: Regina Jones has got Soul!

Before social media and before hashtags, there was Soul. In this episode of Black Women North of 50, host Wynn Helms sits down with Regina Jones, a true trailblazer who carved out her place in history as the first Black woman to publish an entertainment newspaper about black artists in the U.S. Through her work with Soul, Regina became a voice for Black music and culture in the 1970s, spotlighting legends when mainstream media wouldn’t. She opens up about the reality behind her rise: getting pregnant at 15, surviving hardship, and refusing to be defined by anyone else’s expectations. Regina shares stories of walking into male-dominated rooms with her head held high, creating opportunities when none existed, and working with icons like the Jackson 5. Her journey is a lesson in resilience, vision, and power. You’ll hear about: How Regina turned early hardships into fuel for her ambition Navigating a male-dominated industry as a young Black woman in the ‘70s Why self-belief and resilience are non-negotiable The legacy she hopes to leave for future generations of Black women entrepreneurs This episode is more than a look back at history — it’s a celebration of what’s possible when a Black woman decides to bet on herself. 🔔 Subscribe to Black Women North of 50 for more stories and real talk: YouTube: @BlackWomenNorthof50 💌 Want to share your story or suggest a topic?
