Summary

This is part two of our series on whether black people really have to work twice as hard. If you missed part one, go back and check it out first. Today, I’m breaking down why many black people have been conditioned to play the wrong game—falling into a victim mindset instead of focusing on strategy. Some people do need to work ten times harder, not because of their skin color, but because they simply aren’t good enough yet. And let’s be clear—equity and equality are myths. You can’t manufacture sameness among people. Tune in to hear the real game you need to be playing. Show Notes: [02:19]#4 A lot of black folks have been conditioned to play the wrong game.This is the game of victimhood. [10:51]#5 Some of you need to work ten times harder because you're garbage. You should be working ten times harder because you ain't shit. [24:20]#6 Equity and equality are myths.
