Raina and I just wanted to update you all about a new show we plan to launch before the end of the year.I will resume this podcast. The first book to tackle is "The Gospel of J. Edgar Hoover" and the inception of white Christian nationalism.My plan to launch a new project next year. I may touch on it in this podcast.

Updates and Upcoming Shows

We NEED to respond to Mandisa and the BN affiliates response (non-response). Mandisa always talks about hating hypocrites and she is the biggest hypocrite of them all. I guess accountability and responsibility are for everyone but her. I couldn't make this up if I wanted to.


	They (Mandisa Lateefah Thomas and the BN Affiliates) are basically gaslighting YOU! The next round of gaslighting central will focus on restorative justice. Sikivu Hutchinson has already laid the groundwork to restore Mandisa to her rightful place of touch not thine anointed one. Raina and I have pointed out that Sikivu and many others are complicit. 


	Predators of any sort should not be tolerated. However, with some of these people, they want the same treatment given to white men in particular. They will do anything to maintain their proximity to whiteness. We've been warning you about this since 2012. You got angry with us, but that's fine too...


	We really need to talk about sex cults and the harm that they inflict. It's same type of setup that the church has in regards to venerating the leader and anyone who disagrees is disfellowshipped and tossed out like trash. 


	People who are leaving religion need a soft place to land, but that's not in someones bed. They have been manipulated and exploited enough.

Touch not mine ...

Please join Raina and Kim, Saturday, April 8, 2023 @ 1pm CDT, as they discuss religiosity and the mass incarceration system.

Why isn't the secular community addressing these very real issues?

Religiosity and the mass incarceration system.

We don't even know where to begin, but we sure as hell know where it stops.

Please join us as we discuss the current political and cultural climate in this country. 

The Democrats are pushing a theme of unity and outreach. We can't afford to allow them to brush over what has taken place in this country since its inception. While some may feel that the Democrats are going to really push for change, we see that they are reaching out to groups of problematic whypipo who will never see or accept that Black people are human and deserve common human decency, dignity, and respect. How are we supposed to unify with people who are our enemies?

We can't afford to continue to allow either party to continue to exploit and marginalize us anymore. However, it seems as though the Democrats are going out of their way to appeal to whypipo who will never accept them.  They seem more determined to find commonalities with people who hate them than with the Black people who have supported them for decades.

The Democrats need to understand that even though we may not vote for the Republicans, we are not obligated to vote for them or vote at all. We owe it to ourselves to forge a new path while holding both parties, especially the Democrats, to account for their participation in our oppression. They both know exactly what they're doing. 

We can't afford to let them forget about, turn away, explain away, or outright refuse our humanity and human rights. It's time to PUSH back hard.
