The Love Cast with Jamal

Episode 115: Why I Decided NOT to Participate in Blackout Tuesday.


Listen Later

In response to the media coverage of George Floyd's tragic death and the subsequent national unrest, a social media campaign called Blackout Tuesday was designed to be a show of support and solidarity for the black community and a demonstration against the tragedy of George Floyd's death.  I, however, made a choice not to participate in blackout Tuesday or any subsequent protests. 

In this episode of The Love Cast, I share in significant detail why I am deciding not to participate in these protests and I also share the three major observations about the American media that I feel compelled to share with you. 

Although I feel this information in this podcast is important, I do know that not everyone will appreciate or receive this information well in light of our current polarized discourse.  My goal in this podcast is to provide you with a perspective that you may not have considered for your emotional and physical health.  There is a lot of information shared in this episode that I feel needs to be considered. 

With that said, if you feel this podcast may trigger you or cause you anxiety, it may be best for you not to listen to this episode.  If you do make the choice to listen to this episode, please listen to this entire episode from start to finish as this episode will require careful consideration and intentional hearing.  Please respond to the entirety of this conversation, especially the conclusion of this podcast.  Thanks very much.
