This week's topic addresses how Blacks' welcome-in approach to sharing our culture often leaves us iced out, confused, and profitless. Most cultures gatekeep. They are particular with what they share and ensure you come to them to learn their customs. On the other hand, many Blacks strive for Whites' validation and lack a true sense of self. We perform, although we don't have to. This podcast will unpack this misfortune and raise awareness of what is happening and what needs to happen to mitigate the slave mentality that still haunts many of us.
