The Fight Starts Here:

I’m not the same person I was when you last heard from me on a consistent basis. I’ve been away, not out of apathy, but because I’ve been growing, studying, lamenting, rebuilding—and finding my center. I’ve spent that time preparing, and now, I’m coming back with a plan, a purpose, and a clarity I didn’t have before. This episode lays out the foundation for everything that comes next. I’m introducing a new, methodical cycle—a rotation of the most urgent and interconnected issues of our time:

Gaza and the global fight against genocide
The rise of fascism in America
White supremacy and systemic racism
Failures and complicity within the Democratic Party
Nuances within the Black community
Why Christianity and capitalism are fundamentally incompatible

Each topic will be revisited regularly. This is not headline-chasing. This is strategic, educational, and mobilizing work—meant to build a body of knowledge that equips us for the fight ahead. I also want to be clear about this shift: I’m leading more publicly with my faith now—not as a means of exclusion, but because it’s the source of my clarity and conviction.

That said, this space has always been and will always remain rooted in unity—centered around The People of Good Faith. That means you—whether you’re Christian, atheist, Muslim, agnostic, Jewish, spiritual, or none of the above. If you yield to truth, if you are committed to justice, if you’re willing to confront inconvenient facts for the sake of collective liberation—then you are welcome here. You are needed here.

I talk in this episode about why I’m moving to daily audio, how social media algorithms have suppressed this work, and why I’m no longer waiting for perfection to speak truth. I ask you—if you've ever stood with me—to show up again. Share this episode. Commit to listening. Reconnect.

Because the best of what’s coming won’t be possible without you. This isn’t just a podcast. It’s a strategy. A community. A movement. And it starts now.

0:30.2	And truthfully, as long as I can sustain this.
0:34.6	But there is a lot that I have been not just working on but processing and I'm realizing that
0:44.7	to carry all of these things I'm going to have to move in a very methodical intentional cycle
0:53.6	in order to not only cover what needs to be covered from Gaza to
1:01.7	the rise of fascism in the United States of America, the renaissance of white supremacy,
1:08.5	the problems in the Democratic Party as they are complicit with the rise
1:12.7	of fascism in the United States of America, to nuances in the black community, to nuances
1:22.2	in Christianity that need to be highlighted and pointed out. For example, this morning we

1:40.0	In the black community, we have pro-black impostors, a term that I took from my colleague in this space,

1:54.5	Augustus Corbett. He coined that phrase, pro-black impostors.
2:05.8	And then I'm hoping one day eventually we can get to a peaceful enough existence where I can really get into the stuff that I've been working on and studying
2:10.7	about the universe, reality itself, all of those things that are only accessible to you if you have time and enough
