Straight Outta' Plantation

4/20. It’s the unofficial holiday of marijuana enthusiasts everywhere. A day that brings lots of joy to soo many people who probably only remember it’s coming the day before it’s about to happen. A day that the drive-thru lines for fast food establishments will surely be backed up for blocks. A day that will be some of the most fun people have ALL YEAR! But will likely be remembered as a blur and will end by tired lids involuntarily closing over the reddest eyeballs you’ve ever seen.

If only our technology was able to somehow upgrade the human software of the mind and teach us how to be better. Wait! Maybe the technology we need to truly turn this existence into heaven on Earth has been hidden in our past all along! The ancients had societies based on knowledge of self. Knowledge of self is popular today, people talking about woke this, conscious that, but what does it really mean? #staywoke may be the most overused tag I see on Instagram from people who might seldom know what it means in my opinion. Today we will learn what it really means and how this is a piece of spiritual technology that can change not only YOUR life for the better but also the world...on this episode of straight outta’ plantation.

Jordan Peele has released a second horror film to follow up his giant debut success, “Get Out”. On the surface, the movie “Us is about mysterious doppelgangers coming to torment one family. But even though the film's storyline is not connected to “Us”, except for one way that we will talk about later, it also employs the use of easter eggs and symbolism weaves into the experience. The movie was a fun time in theaters, it was entertaining, but

what I am most interested in sharing with you is what I think the true underlying message was. What are the top 10 hidden meanings of the movie us !? Find out in this episode of, Straight Outta’ Plantation.

I talk about a lot of controversial things on this show, but I think this is going to be one of the most challenging things to discuss because food is something all of us have such an emotional relationship with and it creates a barrier between us and truth. Eating meat is not something people do because it’s smart, we do it because we have 1) have to eat to survive and 2) have been trained to believe meat is just what humans needs. By society, by school and by unethical marketing and industry agendas. This food for thought is actually going to be about food in today's episode of, straight outta’ plantation.

Just like the revival of natural hair and the draw towards general consciousness, racism has also made an interesting come back in the last few years. And it’s awakened feelings in us that sometimes I imagine are the same feelings I shared with my ancestors now long gone. Not that racism ever disappeared, but it’s been a while since we’ve seen this brand of racism. It’s robust. It’s that good old-fashioned 1950’s style racism. The character of Donald Trump’s surely emboldened some of these hateful voices. But do you ever feel like we’re being manipulated, to some extent?

How would you react if your boss suddenly came up to you, claimed they were on the phone with a police officer who says that you are the prime suspect of a theft?

Then what if, in request of this absent police officer, the manager is directed to detain you in the back room of your place of employment? What if the so-called police officer asks your manager to search you, would you let them? What would you say if you were asked to hand your cell phone and belongings over? Would you be okay with being subject to a strip search, conducted by your boss? How about if you were asked to get naked and jump up and down to shake loose the supposed stolen item? Hypothetically, how many of these absurd demands would you be willing to comply with? I’ll wait for your response…

Yeah, that’s what I thought, that shit sounds outrageous. Most people might go to the back room to try and sort out the situation, but nobody is going to give up their cell phone. They definitely aren’t going to get naked. At least, that’s what I thought. I also thought that if you were the manager, you may find it odd that the police were calling you, instead of just showing up. You’re probably wondering why I’m even saying all this?.... Because it actually happened.

Today we’re going to talk about this perplexing situation in detail and the circumstances that would even lead someone to comply with such absurd demands in today’s episode of, Straight Outta’ Plantation.

Learn some things about Christmas that will make you fall in love with the holiday all over again! It combines two awesome things, Eastern based Spirituality and Psychedelic experiences.

In the late 1830s black Americans along with Indigenous Americans showed up in what would be later called, Tulsa Oklahoma. Though, amidst racial violence motivated by colonist takeover, the land was settled and by the early 1900s the newly freed slaves made it into what some call, Wakanda before there was such a thing. Black people living, learning, prospering and doing better than even white residents of nearby cities. But in 1921 this city was burnt to the ground in one of the United States’ most vicious and unreported, racially-motivated, terrorists attacks this country has ever seen. And I bet you never heard so much as a whisper about it in history class. Or anywhere else for that matter!

Nature has a plan. A sequence that’s been flawlessly designed like a complex machine. From the most massive celestial bodies and all the way down to the tiniest molecules. Everything moves in a predictable and seemingly pre programmed manner, including people. We live in such a modern world, it’s easy to forget we’re just simple creatures with complex toys. Unlike our sophisticated technology, we are still a slave to our animal like biology in many ways. When we get hungry, we eat. When we get tired we sleep. And when we get in that special sexy mood, we have sex. Eh, not necessarily.

The modern world made rules for some of the things that come naturally to us. We are going to talk about how powerful the human desire to procreate is and the lengths some people will go in order to combat this desire.

The world is such a terrible place, but can free love, free us all? . Let’s talk about sex in today’s taboo episode of , Straight Outta’ Plantation.

Hip hop is one of the world's most popular and influential art forms. It's only 40 years old but it's already left a tremendous mark on the world. Fashion, the music industry in general, social behaviors, trends, dance, and many other art forms and social institutions are ever being influenced by Hip hop . But does this art form resemble complex ancient spiritual systems belonging to the ancestors of its creators, known today as African Americans? Is it something that can induce meditative states? Is it something that can affect our realities? Personally, I say yes to all of the above. We’re going to talk about the how and why, in this episode of, Straight Outta Plantation.
