Speak My Peace Podcast

First off, I want to send my thoughts and prayers for all of those who were effected by Hurricane Flo and are returning home to see their homes and belongings damaged. Got a lot of stuff to talk about this week #45 is planning to elect an attorney, with an active sexual assault accusation, as a Supreme Court Justice, white media tried their hand at criminalizing the late Botham Jones, our sis Jemelle Hill didn't take too long to find a job after leaving ESPN, Floyd Mayweather announces his plans to leave retirement, and a whole bunch of rap hoopla.This Week's Best Kept Secret:J.I.D. - 151 Rum

This past week we lost a great rapper turned musician, when Mac Miller passed at the young age of 26 years old. The outpour of genuine condolences are still showering his soul one week later. In Dallas, TX home of racist football team owners.. another innocent African-American male, Botham Jean, was murdered simply for being awaken by an Dallas PD officer who wrongfully entered in home in the late hours of the night. Serena Williams loss in the US Open Finals here in Queens, NY to a 20 year old Naomi Osaka, but that took the backseat to much more thing that unfolded during the match. I speak my peace.

Since Colin Kaepernick first started protest the values of the national anthem by kneeling to raise awareness of the social injustices occurring all throughout the "land of the free," there has been many attempts to change the narrative because America is too scared to have the racial inequality conversation. Not I, since day 1 I have been ready to shoot down all attempts at changing the narrative, so why would that change after I start a podcast?Visit Kaepernick's Free Campaign for the Youth @ https://knowyourrightscamp.comThis week's Best Kept Secret:Swoope - Black Boy

A bit of a rant, but listen to this for motivational purposes.

Y'all going to have to forgive me for saying the wrong episode number, nonetheless episode 10 is here! A lot of disrespect to my people have been popular in recent times, and I'm not going to remain silent about that. Also, I briefly shine the light on the great job the NBA has done in showcasing and talking about the importance of speaking out about mental health issues.Best Kept Secret: Black Thought - Twofifteen

For the very first time we have a guest! Isabel and I share our experiences of growing up without our biological fathers. We talk about how we've individually dealt with not having our fathers present in our lives, dealing with the men that step up in their absence, the failed attempts of the men that try to, and whether or not mending a failed relationship is worth it.

The art of minding yo' own business is lost. Whoever filed a complaint on 13 year old Jaequan in Milwaukee definitely couldn't mind his or her own, I learned, in my weekly #WhatToWatch recommendation, that had this idiot Zimmerman been minding his own business Trayvon Martin would still be breathing today. Dak also can't seem to mind his own without undermining the efforts of other black people, either. JUST MIND YO OWN AND YOU WILL LIVE LONG !Best Kept Secret:Mac Miller - Buttons
