Tonight, on "It's Real Talk Radio" we are joined with "Israel United In Christ (IUIC)" as these brothers have once again come to grace us with another powerful discussion. This is our fourth installment with IUIC and this time, we will be discussing the recent controversy with Kanye West (now known as Ye) and Kyrie Irving. The focus on this discussion is to bring forth scriptures and prophecies from the Bible that speaks on many of these events to come, while also pointing out the hypocrisy, lies and conspiracy, to keep the so called African Americans / Blacks / people of color from the truth, as it is written in the Bible. It is now being reported that Kanye West has loss his billionaire status and has now officially been removed from the Forbes' billionaire list, now that his partnership with Adidas is over. Ye infuriated the Jewish elites and as a result, Adidas, Footlocker, Gap, Balenciaga, TJ Maxx and other companies have all severed ties with the icon. But were Ye's word's truly hateful, or did people just not like what he had to say, got in their feelings, and used their power, money and resources to seek revenge? Kyrie Irving quickly learned how much the NBA thinks Black lives matter, when he recently shared the link to the 2018 film, "Hebrews to Negroes: Wake Up Black America" n his Twitter page. After being pressed by reporters, Kyrie frustratingly explained his reason for the post and that he's not divisive and embraces all walks of life. Kyrie further went on to explain himself, while also speaking on behalf of Blacks, in defense for all of the horror and atrocities they have faced. We are honored to hear scripture and commentary by Captain Amaziah, Officer Matt and Officer Phineas and Officer Micah. Join us, as we dive in on this trending topic of anti-Semitism hate speech, the Jewish elites and the original Jews that the Bible speaks of. Oh yea, it just got REAL!

Black men, it's time to get real with each other. Wellness, self-love, finance, nutrition; these are just a few topics Black Love Inc General Manager David Wasicki will be bringing to the forefront in Man to Man: A Black Love Wellness Series. Each week the topics will change, but the insights & lessons gained from Black men of all walks of life will remain constant. Man to Man serves as a platform for men to get real-life insight directly from notable, successful men who lead with the honesty and vulnerability that Black Love is known for. Toxic masculinity. What is it? Is it really an issue or is it some buzzword? We brought in two brothers to have a conversation about masculinity in all forms, but especially centered around being Black men: Karega Bailey, artist, educator, and angel father, and King Jay Barnett, author, speaker, and mental health therapist. Perhaps more important than the question of what is toxic masculinity is “how do we acknowledge behavior that is toxic that seems to be consistently perpetrated by men”? Honestly, there are so many questions and points asked that this is only one piece of the framework necessary for healing. But we have to start somewhere, and this is a great start with two phenomenal men.Make sure you show Karega and Jay love on ig @karegabailey and @kingjaybarnettHave suggestions on who David should go Man to Man with next?

“When you love someone and decide to spend your life as one, your dreams and goals are now shared, so when an injury or hardship comes, it hits you both. But if you focus on your love, you'll find a way to get through, and, if need be, create new goals together.” – Shevon NietoWhen Shavon first encountered Jaime it was at a track meet. They were both Olympians and he had just won his heat and she thought he was cute. Fast forward 4 years later to another track meet at UCLA and Jaime would ask Shavon out to dinner. They were inseparable ever since. It wouldn't be until years later when a terrible accident would put their love to a test.

When Kevin first laid eyes on Melissa in on the first day of 11th grade in Ms. Chapman's U.S. History class he knew he wanted to shoot his shot. He didn't, but he did at least start a friendship, and they've been in each other's lives ever since. They were dating before the end of the school year, went to college together, and married before they had their degrees. It all seemed so easy for them.
