About this listen

It appears that in recent times, there has been a resurgence of supporting everything black:  businesses, education, labor, etc. With this resurgence comes a call for the black dollar to go alongside these black entities. Unfortunately, instead of using this publicity to promote solid small businesses, the attention has only been given to the owners' color without regard to the quality of service. This same reality is prevalent in every industry. Regardless of whether something is good or not or exudes excellence, I, as a black person, am responsible for supporting that thing that a black person runs. Though this message may be well-intended, the primary pushers of this message have entirely forgotten that your service has to warrant the money you seek. Being black isn't good enough, be the best. This episode discusses how this very mindset resulted in events like Howard University, the circus surrounding the Kyle Rittenhouse case, and some personal updates.
