Fear-Less w/Eldredge Washington Feb 17, 2023

Show notes

There aint much we like more than someone unafraid to try, unafraid to fail forward, and unafraid to win...except for someone who is willing to do all of that and then inspire you to do the same. That is exactly what is happening in this amazing episode featuring a good friend of Vince's by the name of Eldredge Washington.
Eldredge is a renaisance man who has his hands in community organizing, activism, entrepreneurship, and has the podcast/media word in a chokehold. After all that, the brother has nuggets of information galore.
You absolutely cannot miss this episode and please share it with those in your world who need to be inspired.

A "Lens" On Police Brutality w/ Mbye Njie Jan 20, 2023

Show notes

There has been civil unrest, a riot, or a massacre due to police action in every century since at least 1890, and in most, if not all centuries, there have been multiple. This fact has not changed in all this time, but what has changed is that today almost every citizen has a camera on them at all times and can catch the horrible events happening. But what if your phone were much more than a camera? What if it were the bill of rights, a list of the applicable laws, your own personal videographer or reporter, and live action attorney ensuring that no traffic stop or interaction with the police was ever the same? Well, that is exactly what your phone is today, thanks to the Legal Equalizer app.
Today we have the Legal Equalizer app founder and CEO, Mbye Nije, in the chair as he breaks down the facts and figures of police brutality and talks in-depth about many of the solutions.
This episode is not to be missed.
Make sure to engage with Mbye at the Legal Equalizer App Website (https://www.legaleqapp.com)

Show notes

Today's episode is a scorcher, and at the same time, it's filled with a perspective that we all need to hear. So consider this: is the idea of a ride-or-die chick even fair? Is ride or die the standard, and if it is, then id ask if it should be.
Our guest today, Shanita Hubbard, lays out information about feminism and carefully delivers her message against the backdrop of hip-hop as a lifestyle.
Make sure to grab her book Ride or Die: A Feminist Manifesto for the Well Being of Black Women.
Tune in, turn it up loud, and gain some perspective.
