In this episode of The Forbidden Frequency, we journey through the incredible true story of the Safe Bus Company — the largest Black-owned transportation company in the world during the Jim Crow era. Born in 1926 out of necessity and built by a group of visionary Black jitney drivers in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Safe Bus didn’t just transport passengers — it carried a community toward dignity, autonomy, and economic power.
Discover how this fleet of hope navigated segregation, grew into a pillar of Black enterprise, and left a lasting legacy that still echoes today. This is not just a story about buses — it’s about what happens when people decide to move themselves forward, no matter the roadblocks.
Tune in and ride with us through a powerful chapter of hidden history.
