    In this episode I sit down with student of Louis Farrakhan and registered member of the Nation Of Islam, Sister An Nura. I listen intently as she explains her reasons for joining, her love for Saviour’s Day, and clears up a few misconceptions that surround the NOI.

  • Black History Month Wrap Up

    28 days is definitely not enough time to celebrate and acknowledge all the accomplishments and achievements of black people through out history, but its definitely more time than when it was originally started under the name 'Negro History Week" by Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity brother Carter G. Woodson. As special guest Semaya and I reflect on Black History Month 2021 while discussing why should celebrate, who should be celebrating, and who should be celebrated during this month of Black Excellence. Hope you all had an amazing month, but don't let it stop there.

  • All American Muslim: Life of an African American Muslim Woman
    In what was originally supposed to be an hour long conversation about intersectionality, I sit down with my special guest and good friend Jeyda Muhammed, a young African American Muslim woman. Together we delve deep into the history of Islam in the Americas starting with the enslaved Africans brought to various plantations, we then talk about the Nation Of Islam and the impact it had on not just Jeyda's grandparents but the African American community as a whole, all while name dropping a few African American Muslim celebrities.
