On today's episode, I have a discussion with my friends Brandon Mosely from the B-Real podcast and Lynn Silverburg from Urban Thought. We talk about political infrastructure in the Black community, the importance of being apart of the political process, why holding your vote is never good business, etc. With all of these plans like the Contract with Black America and the Platinum Plan, is it a good idea to promote Black empowerment like a business transaction?For a video episode of this episode click on the link below:https://youtu.be/bdE1oKk17lQ?t=28To listen to the B-Real Podcast click on the Link Belowhttps://anchor.fm/brandon-mosely/episodes/Voter-Suppression-el8m0i?fbclid=IwAR2yGqh3zX5JYH7299dqAG_7xrsUTNqasDlSIi-f4xkNRGIp49kB14YpNBcFor Brandon's nonprofit PUSH (People United Servicing Hope) click on the link belowhttps://www.pushchange.org/?fbclid=IwAR0NA8OH384e-ItzwD5U_B5GZzeFucPcTRONWJdOsEwGjmnPi7BnxL7DJ10For Lynn's blog click on the link below:UrbanThought.orgFor Lynn's Instagram click on the link belowhttps://www.instagram.com/l.silverburg/You can follow me on Twitter @KMEzDoesIt and you can email the shot @ RealPowerDynamics@gmail.com
