Joining me first is the founder and President of the World Trust Educational Services, Dr. Shakti Butler. Her film “Healing Justice” addresses one of the systemic problems in our society that is the school to prison pipeline and we begin the conversation about what is happening right now in our current environment and the racial divide.

In order to change a system, we need to first become aware of the system to implement change. Understanding and interrupting the insidious racial divide has hit a crisis point and I finally believe we have reached a point where we cannot pretend this never happened. Voices are being heard and people who have been treated in any way different because of the skin color has become the center of attention rather than simply a “conversation that needs to happen”.

Kute Blackson was groomed to follow in his father’s footsteps as the minister of a large church in West Africa, only to realize his heart’s desire was to follow his own voice and to help others realize their full potential.

Joining me is the founder of Ontological Living, Bettie Spruill. As an Ontological Coach, Bettie is here to talk about Linguistic Viruses and how we can use the power of language to create a new way of being and a new reality as we are seeing in peaceful protests.

What is racial ignorance? How do you solve racism if many don’t see how deeply ingrained it is in the culture. This is what we are currently witnessing with being able to become aware which is the real ongoing pandemic - the virus of the mind – racism. We all have the power right now to end these conversations and begin a new conversation about education, awareness and action.

This show is about open, honest truth. This show is about pain, growth and what it means to have a vulnerable conversation that ends up in love. This show is about inclusion, friendship, and what it means to stretch in order to grow.
