Tellemtiptoldyou

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 92 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"He Ain’t SWAC.” This week, I had a lot to get off of my chest regarding that coach’s behavior around our beloved HBCUs. Before you listen, let me go on and say in advance that some feelings my get hurt with this episode. Listen, everything that glitters isn’t gold and everything flashy isn’t faithful. You can go ahead an tellemtiptold you that!

Anywhoo, I realized that I could fit everything I wanted to cover in just one episode, so consider this part one of my rant. I’ll give you the rest next week.

What I had to get off my chest first, was just how bothered I am around the treatment of our students and how many of us seeming have our souls up for sale. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. called materialism one of the three evils that we must face. I think his words are especially important in this conversation.

It also was a wakeup call for your girl. After all, I think it’s time more of us start thinking about what it means to be an institution builder.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around HBCUs, education, or culture, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

After you tune in, let me know what you think of this episode by leaving me a 5 star review.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 91 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"I Ain’t Your Comfort.” This week, I want to tell you why I’ve been missing and touch on recent news and events.

I’ve missed unpacking Black cultural and political ideas with you! If you’re on my email list, watch out for an email that asks for the best time and day for us to begin our Instagram Lives again.

The title of this episode is informed, in part, by Howling Wolf’s song “Built for Comfort.” Now, I don’t mind being built for comfort for people in my community, but I don’t owe my oppressors NOTHING. In other words, when a colonizer dies I do not owe them my respect nor their admirers my comfort.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around politics, voting, or culture, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 89 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"The Problem with Some Black Christians.” Admittedly, this episode will probably bother you a little, but I’m okay with that.

As a community, we’re really going to have to address our tendencies to be divided on issues where there should be no division..This is a thinking episode. I really want us to dig into our visceral actions to the “thing,” and what we’re going to do in the face of the “thing.”

As we contemplate those things, here are the websites I referenced:

www.teachingintheurbansouth.com

www.tellemtiptoldyou.com

www.pogueeducationalconsulting.com

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around politics, religions, or misogynoir, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

On the macro- and micro-levels, we fall victim to someone else's agenda when we seek their validation and valuation.

In this episode, I share why as long as we seek to be validated by someone else, we'll fail to witness the genius of our people.

I'll share how the terror attacks in Buffalo and Texas reveal anti-Black and anti-Latine violence as well as how the words of politicians reveal their own anti-people sentiments. I'll even talk about Juneteenth and its similarity to Memorial Day as I argue that external validation has cost us with these holidays, too.

I'd love to here your perspectives on these ideas. You can always email me at [email protected].

Key Terms: Racism, History, Black Studies, Juneteenth, Memorial Day

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 88 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"The Hypocrisy Problem (or The Slap We Won’t Discuss.” Admittedly, this episode is all over the place—mostly because I have strong emotions about this.

As a community, we’re really going to have to go after this “respectability politics” thing. In the aftermath of the thing we will not mention, I saw many examples of respectability politics play out, and I’m not sure all of us were aware when we were buying into them. This episode is about those comments, not about the moment.

This is a thinking episode. I really want us to dig into our visceral actions to the “thing,” and how we’re reacted to other folks’ reactions to the “thing.”

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re really wanting to unpack the ideas around respectability politics, think pieces, or misogynoir, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send me an email at [email protected].

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 87 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Stop Expecting Black Deficiency” This episode is personal for me. I can’t help but wonder if Ryan Coogler would have had the cops called on him if a Black teller didn’t have a preconceived notion of what Black men were or how they were supposed to “behave.”

I also talk briefly about the Crown Act which just passed the US House of Representatives, but that was voted against by 189 people! To be aware, and to read the Crown Act discussed in this episode, you can visit this website.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 86 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"War at Home and War Abroad” This is a pretty heavy episode. I hope that you find it informative, but also encouraging. The bottom line is that we have to be attentive to not only things going on abroad, but also the things that are happening right here, too.

To be aware, and to read the House Bills discussed in this episode, you can visit the Georgia Congressional website here.

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 85 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Not During Black History Month!” This has to have been one of the worst Black History Months as of late. War, economic insecurity, HBCU bomb threats and more. But I’m not here to talk about the macro level stuff (although we should be paying attention to it).

This week, I came with a confession about my BHM funk this year. I cannot fully explain why I felt unproductive exactly, but in this episode, I do try my very best to explain.

I’d love to hear what you think about my ideas. And, if you’re an expert on Mental Health or Resilience, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send us an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 84 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"Encanto for Black Women.” I have a new movie in my top five! Disney’s Encanto is an exceptional story about a young girl learning to celebrate her own unique magic. WARNING: This episode contains spoilers. If you have not yet watched the film, you may want to do it before listening.

In this episode, I will share with you my main takeaways from the film. Chief among them is the need to recognize that my magic does not have to manifest like anyone else’s (and neither does yours). This episode is made especially for the overachievers among us who feel pressured to identify as our gifts rather than with our gifts.

I’d love to hear what you think about these ideas. And, if you’re an expert on storytelling, please consider being a guest on the podcast. Send us an email at [email protected]. I’m a life coach helping folks reach holistic success over here!

Hey ya’ll hey!

Thanks for tuning into Episode 83 of Tellemtiptoldyou—"A Chat with Kristina Hamlett.” In this episode I get to have a conversation with a dear friend and powerful writer: Kristina Hamlett.

I met Kristina during a Digital Storytelling workshop at the University of Alabama a few years ago. She’s done a lot in the time since then that is more than inspirational. That’s why I wanted to share her and her most recent project, She Lives Here, with you.

Kristina is an author, blogger, and storyteller that facilitates creative non-fiction writing classes at a re-entry non-profit. The Pandemic has required some adjustments and Hamlett is now creating a poetry reading series with Henrico County Public Library to amplify the voices of local poets.

To find out more about Kristina Hamlett and her work, you can follow her on Twitter (@StinaHamlett), IG (@KristinaHamlett), and/or Facebook (@KristinaHamlett). Her website is www.kristinahamlett.com.
