Today I talk about an experience I had while visiting my home town of Oakland. I break down the importance of people not claiming that they have Oakland Roots unless they actually have Oakland Roots. I share a cultural tidbit for listeners to take a read of the Oakland Post and look up the article "Rich Black Genealogical Roots of Oakland’s Political and Publishing Greats" by Virtual Murrell You can find that article through this link: https://postnewsgroup.com/2020/01/09/the-rich-black-genealogical-roots-of-oaklands-political-and-publishing-greats/ Take a listen to the episode, it's a good one. Also, just another reminder,
