Summary

Jemar and Tyler are back this week to discuss a serious topic: #SurvivingRKelly. The 6 part lifetime documentary swept through social media and challenged many of us to pay attention and hold him accountable. In this episode, we discuss what it means to hold ourselves accountable, how this story is being replayed in our churches/local communities, and how black men should respond to stories of the abuse of black women. Also, this is release week for Jemar’s new book “The Color of Compromise”! Be sure to pick up your copy at thecolorofcompromise.com and join us this week in Memphis (Jan 22) Chicago (Jan 25) and Atlanta (Jan 31) for our release week events! Learn more about your ad choices.
