Why do we keep ending up in toxic relationships — even when we know better? ⁠Buy the book Fawning: Why the Need to Please Makes Us Lose Ourselves--and How to Find Our Way Back ⁠ In this powerful conversation, Kwame Christian sits down with psychologist and trauma therapist Dr. Ingrid Clayton to explore the hidden reason behind this pattern: the fawning trauma response. Ingrid shares how complex trauma rewires the nervous system, why simply “setting boundaries” often doesn't work, and how shame keeps us stuck in cycles of people-pleasing. Together, they unpack the science of safety, what it really takes to break free, and why healing is less about quick tips and more about reconnecting with yourself. If you've ever wondered why saying “no” feels impossible — or why you're drawn to the very relationships that hurt you — this episode will change how you see yourself and your story.

Part 2 of our conversation with Josh Neufeld about his non-fiction graphic novel, A. D. After the Deluge. “A stunning graphic novel that makes plain the undeniable horrors and humanity triggered by Hurricane Katrina in the true stories of six New Orleanians who survived the storm. A.D. follows each of the six from the hours before Katrina struck to its horrific aftermath. Here is Denise, a sixth-generation New Orleanian who will experience the chaos of the Superdome; the Doctor, whose unscathed French Quarter home becomes a refuge for those not so lucky; Abbas and his friend Mansell, who face the storm from the roof of Abbas's family-run market; Kwame, a pastor's son whose young life will remain wildly unsettled well into the future; and Leo, a comic-book fan, and his girlfriend, Michelle, who will lose everything but each other.” Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy.

In this episode, Kwame Christian sits down with Colin M. Fisher, author of The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups, to explore the hidden psychology of group dynamics. From the dinner table to the boardroom, every group is a negotiation — balancing individual goals with collective success. You'll learn: Why adding more brains to a meeting often creates more problems. The “Goldilocks rule” for group size (and why 4–5 people may be perfect). How psychological safety transforms conflict into collaboration. Practical strategies to prevent disengagement and get real buy-in. How family conflicts mirror team conflicts at work — and how to resolve both.

640. Bruce's son Kerr joins us for part 1 of our conversation with Josh Neufeld about his non-fiction graphic novel, A. D. After the Deluge. “A stunning graphic novel that makes plain the undeniable horrors and humanity triggered by Hurricane Katrina in the true stories of six New Orleanians who survived the storm. A.D. follows each of the six from the hours before Katrina struck to its horrific aftermath. Here is Denise, a sixth-generation New Orleanian who will experience the chaos of the Superdome; the Doctor, whose unscathed French Quarter home becomes a refuge for those not so lucky; Abbas and his friend Mansell, who face the storm from the roof of Abbas's family-run market; Kwame, a pastor's son whose young life will remain wildly unsettled well into the future; and Leo, a comic-book fan, and his girlfriend, Michelle, who will lose everything but each other.” Now available: Liberty in Louisiana: A Comedy. The oldest play about Louisiana, author James Workman wrote it as a celebration of the Louisiana Purchase. Now it is back in print for the first time in 221 years. Order your copy today! This week in the Louisiana Anthology. Walt Whitman came to New Orleans for 3 months to write at the New Orleans Crescent. There he saw things he had not seen in New York. This poem is about one of those.  "I Saw in Louisiana a Live-Oak Growing." I saw in Louisiana a live-oak growing, All alone stood it and the moss hung down from the branches, Without any companion it grew there uttering joyous leaves of dark green, And its look, rude, unbending, lusty, made me think of myself, But I wonder'd how it could utter joyous leaves standing alone there without its friend near, for I knew I could not, And I broke off a twig with a certain number of leaves upon it, and twined around it a little moss, And brought it away, and I have placed it in sight in my room, It is not needed to remind me as of my own dear friends, (For I believe lately I think of little else than of them,) Yet it remains to me a curious token, it makes me think of manly love; For all that, and though the live-oak glistens there in Louisiana solitary in a wide flat space, Uttering joyous leaves all its life without a friend a lover near, I know very well I could not. This week in Louisiana history. August 23, 1714. St. Denis begins his exploration of Red River Valley. This week in New Orleans history. The grass-roots organization Levees.org, founded by Sandy Rosenthal and her son Stanford (while exiled in Lafayette after Hurricane Katrina) is devoted to educating America on the facts associated with the 2005 catastrophic flooding of the New Orleans region. On August 23, 2010 the group installed a Louisiana State Historic Marker which reads “On August 29, 2005, a federal floodwall atop a levee on the 17th Street Canal, the largest and most important drainage canal for the city, gave way here causing flooding that killed hundreds. This breach was one of 50 ruptures in the Federal Flood Protection System on that day. In 2008, the US District Court placed responsibility for this floodwall's collapse squarely on the US Army Corps of Engineers.” This week in Louisiana.

AI can write, edit, even cast—but it still can't do what made TV legend Bonnie Hammer unstoppable: read the room. In this candid conversation with Kwame Christian, Bonnie unpacks the human meta‑skill behind great leadership and negotiation—reading people and context in real time—and how it powered her “Blue Skies” era at USA & SYFY (Monk, Psych, Burn Notice). She shares why “fake it till you make it” fails (and what to do instead), how to hire for humility and team-first culture, why presence matters (“be in the room”), and how to build a spider‑web career that thrives through industry upheaval, streaming shakeups, and the rise of AI. What you'll learn Reading the room: the irreplaceable skill that beats AI and drives better decisions, deals, and teams. Face it till you make it: Bonnie's upgrade to the old career cliché—and how to apply it immediately. Hiring & culture: spotting humility, collaboration, and truth‑tellers (not cheerleaders). Media shifts: streaming, bundling, budget pressure—and what creators should do now. AI & guardrails: what to protect, what to embrace, and where human storytelling wins. Presence & influence: first impressions, listening deeply, and speaking the language of the room. Mentorship that works: why challenging mentors accelerate growth (Barry Diller story inside). Women at work: the most damaging “lie” and how to replace it with actionable strategy.

De Stokely Carmichael, figure des luttes noires du XXème siècle, on connaît surtout le combat aux États-Unis, comme dirigeant des Black Panther. On sait moins qu'en 1968, Carmichael a rejoint la Guinée avec son épouse, la chanteuse sud-africaine Miriam Makeba. Il est alors devenu un proche collaborateur du président ghanéen en exil Kwame Nkrumah et s'est engagé aux côtés de la révolution guinéenne. Bokar Ture, fils de Stokely Carmichael, a accordé un entretien à RFI : il raconte les années africaines de la vie de son père. RFI : Votre père a été un acteur important des luttes noires du XXème siècle. Aux États-Unis, où il a été l'un des responsables des Black Panther… mais aussi dans son parcours transatlantique puisqu'il vient s'installer en 1968 en Guinée. Parlez-nous d'abord de lui. D'où vient-il ? Comment est née cette conscience militante noire ?  Bokar Ture : Kwame Ture est né Stokely Carmichael à Trinidad et Tobago, connu aussi en français comme Trinité-et-Tobago, en 1941. Il immigre plus tard aux États-Unis pour retrouver sa mère -donc ma grand-mère- qui y était déjà installée quelques années plus tôt. Elle avait pu avoir sa nationalité américaine parce qu'elle était née à Panama. Comment a commencé cette conscience ? Déjà, il avait un penchant politique très tôt. Il y a une de ses tantes qui racontait une anecdote : quand il était jeune, il la poussait à aller voter pour un syndicaliste à l'île de Trinidad. Et au lycée, aux États-Unis, il fréquentait déjà des groupes gauchistes. Un de ses amis de classe était le fils du président du Parti communiste américain dans les années 1952. Et donc, très tôt, il a pu découvrir les discours marxistes. Et bien sûr, il vivait au sud du Bronx, à côté de Harlem. Et la 125e rue de Harlem est une rue reconnue pour des discours politiques de tout genre, de différents groupes.  Il a été l'un de ceux qui ont travaillé l'idée de Black Power. Il a même coécrit, en 1967 avec Charles Hamilton, un ouvrage qui le théorise, intitulé Black Power, the politics of Liberation in America.  Effectivement, le concept de Black Power existait avant. Il y avait un livre qui s'appelait Black Power par Richard Wright, qui a été écrit pendant les années 1950 et qui était un ouvrage dédié à Kwame Nkrumah. Mais personne n'a rendu l'idée de Black Power aussi populaire que Kwame Ture - Stokely Carmichael à l'époque. Notamment durant une marche contre la peur au sud des États-Unis, aux côtés de Martin Luther King, où il disait, plus ou moins : « On est fatigué de mendier notre liberté, comme on l'a fait ces dernières années dans les droits civiques. Maintenant, ce qu'on va faire, c'est de demander le Black Power », le pouvoir noir, qui était un appel à une autodétermination en termes de structures politiques et économiques pour les personnes noires descendantes d'africains aux États-Unis.  En 1968, votre père épouse une première femme, la chanteuse sud-africaine Miriam Makeba. Au-delà de la relation amoureuse qui s'est nouée entre eux, cette union reflète-t-elle aussi une pensée de votre père, de plus en plus tournée vers l'Afrique et vers le panafricanisme à cette époque ?  Ce n'est pas un tournant, c'est une continuité. Kwame Ture a toujours été Africain dans l'âme. Il vient d'un milieu où l'Afrique est centrale dans l'identité noire. Bien avant qu'il ne se marie avec Miriam Makeba. On le voit dans des photos au début des années 1960 avec ses camarades où il est en tenue africaine. Il se sentait toujours africain. Pour lui, être noir et africain, il ne voyait pas de distinction et toute sa vie était ainsi. Quand il a marié Tantie Miriam, comme je l'appelle, c'était juste une continuité. Après aussi, ma mère, Marlyatou Barry, qui était aussi une Guinéenne. C'était juste une continuité de sa façon de vivre.  Comment se fait concrètement la connexion entre votre père et le premier responsable guinéen, Ahmed Sékou Touré ? Stokely Carmichael, à l'époque, faisait une tournée mondiale et il a rencontré Shirley Graham Du Bois, qui était la veuve de W.E.B Du Bois, qui est aussi une légende de l'histoire de la lutte antiraciste et du développement du panafricanisme. Elle a invité Stokely Carmichael à venir en Guinée pour une conférence du Parti démocratique de Guinée pour rencontrer Kwame Nkrumah et Sékou Touré. Quand il est venu, il a rencontré les deux présidents. Il avait déjà beaucoup entendu parler de Kwame Nkrumah, parce que mon grand-père a travaillé dans un bateau un moment. Il est parti au Ghana et quand il est revenu à New York, il expliquait que c'était la première fois qu'il avait vu une nation noire, indépendante, avec sa propre armée, un président, etc. et il expliquait ceci à un jeune Stokely Carmichael. Cela a vraiment marqué sa pensée. Quelques années plus tard, ils se voient face à face avec Kwame Nkrumah. Après la conférence, en quittant la Guinée, il part dire au revoir à Sékou Touré, qui lui dit : « Écoute, mon fils. Ici, c'est chez toi, tu peux revenir quand tu veux. C'est ta maison. »  Il part voir Kwame Nkrumah qui lui dit « Écoute, moi, je cherche un secrétaire politique, donc si ça t'intéresse, tu es toujours le bienvenu. » Un an et demi plus tard, deux ans pratiquement, il était de retour avec sa nouvelle épouse, Miriam Makeba.  Qu'est ce qui fait qu'il vient s'installer à Conakry à cette époque ?  Pour lui, c'était le coin le plus révolutionnaire en Afrique. Lumumba a été assassiné très tôt donc il n'y avait plus le Congo. Après, il y a eu le coup d'État contre Kwame Nkrumah en 1966. Modibo Keïta en 1968. Quand lui est arrivé, le seul autre pays, c'était la Tanzanie, mais qui était beaucoup moins radicale. Donc il a choisi la Guinée. C'était le pays qui s'alignait le plus avec sa pensée du pouvoir noir à l'échelle mondiale.  Il est aussi menacé aux États-Unis. C'est aussi pour cela qu'il quitte les États-Unis ? De toute façon, mon père était prêt à se martyriser. Il a vu Malcolm X tué, il a vu Martin Luther King tué et les agences voulaient sa tête. Il a échappé à pas mal d'attentats. Mais ce n'était pas la raison centrale. Déjà, il y avait l'invitation. Ensuite, il ne voyait pas les États-Unis comme le centre de cette lutte à laquelle il a dédié sa vie. Il voyait l'Afrique comme étant une partie essentielle. Pour lui, en venant en Guinée, il rejoignait l'Afrique, il rejoignait la révolution africaine qui pouvait donner la dignité à tout le peuple noir à travers le monde.  Diriez-vous qu'il y a un vrai projet politique international derrière cette volonté de s'installer en Guinée ?  Il a toujours eu ce projet. Quand il parlait de Black Power, déjà, dans le livre dont vous avez parlé, il parlait aussi des colonies en Afrique. Dans Black Power, lui et Charles Hamilton faisaient le parallèle entre la situation que vivaient les Afro-Américains aux États-Unis et la situation que vivaient les Africains en Afrique et aux Caraïbes aussi. Il faisait ce parallèle. Dans sa tête, c'était quelque chose qui était un combat international dès le début.  Quelles sont les idées sur lesquelles votre père, Stokely Carmichael – Kwame Ture, une fois qu'il change de nom – et Ahmed Sékou Touré se retrouvaient ?  On parle de personnes qui avaient la même vision d'une Afrique unie, une Afrique libre où il n'y a pas d'inégalités. Ils étaient tous deux penchés vers des idées socialistes. Ils étaient totalement alignés idéologiquement. Sékou Touré était un de ses mentors, une de ces personnes qui l'ont formé dans cette idéologie.  Ils se retrouvent dans l'idée, qui est défendue par Ahmed Sékou Touré à l'époque, d'authenticité africaine ? À 100 %. Et il s'intègre à 100 %. Je peux vous dire que moi, par exemple, j'ai très peu de souvenirs de mon père en habit occidental. Il s'habillait en tenue africaine, cousue en Afrique. Il s'est enraciné dans la population africaine. Ce qui était quand même unique parce que tout le monde était tourné vers une façon de vivre occidentale. Et lui non, il voulait se réapproprier son héritage culturel.  Et la volonté de promouvoir les cultures africaines, de leur donner leur vraie place ? C'est exactement cela, revaloriser la culture africaine, la culture noire, se réapproprier celle-ci. Et ne pas avoir de complexes vis-à-vis des cultures européennes, dominantes et autres.  Depuis le début de cet entretien, on joue avec deux noms pour parler de votre père, Stokely Carmichael, Kwame Ture. À un moment donné de sa vie, il décide de passer du nom de Stokely Carmichael à celui de Kwame Ture. C'est une démarche qui dit aussi beaucoup de choses sur le lien qu'il a avec Kwame Nkrumah et Ahmed Sékou Touré.  Effectivement. Il y avait un précédent aux États-Unis. Il y avait pas mal d'Afro-Américains, notamment dans son milieu révolutionnaire, qui changeaient de nom. Notamment Malcolm X, Mohamed Ali. Bien sûr, le nom est inspiré de Kwame Nkrumah et de Sékou Touré. L'anecdote, c'est qu'il était en Tanzanie lors d'un entretien radio. Après l'entretien, apparemment, un vieil homme venu à pied d'un village lointain est venu le voir et lui a dit : « Écoute mon fils, j'ai vraiment aimé ton entretien. Mais il y a une chose : ton nom sonne un peu bizarre, un peu féminin, il faut le changer ». Il a alors pris le nom de Kwame Nkrumah et de Sékou Touré. Lorsqu'il venait l'annoncer à Sékou Touré et lui dire : « J'ai pris le prénom de Kwame », Sékou Touré lui a répondu : « C'est bien, parce qu'à chaque fois que nous avons des débats, tu prends toujours son parti. » Il lui a répondu : « Mais j'ai pris le nom Touré comme nom de famille. ». Ce qui était approprié, car c'étaient ses deux mentors. À lire aussiKwame Ture, le destin hors du commun d'un Black Panther parti s'installer en Guinée [1/2] Comment est-ce que vous décririez les liens qu'il entretenait avec Kwame Nkrumah et Ahmed Sékou Touré ? En Kwame Nkrumah, il voyait un symbole de cette lutte. Il était prêt à le suivre. Il a mené quelques opérations au Ghana pour essayer de voir s'il pouvait réinstaurer Kwame Nkrumah au pouvoir. Il était très proche de lui. Et Sékou Touré était comme un père pour lui. En 1970, votre père vit l'un des moments charnières de l'histoire de la Première République guinéenne, à savoir l'attaque contre Conakry du 22 novembre 1970. Savez-vous comment il a vécu ces journées ?  Je sais qu'il était un participant dans l'action de repousser les troupes portugaises. Il était armé ce jour et a dû utiliser son arme. Selon ce que j'ai appris, il était un des premiers à alerter les autorités, y compris le président, du fait qu'il y avait une attaque qui venait. Ca tirait sur sa case, donc il devait quitter sa maison. Lui et Miriam Makeba ont dû se réfugier quelque part d'autre où il l'a laissée et lui est ressorti pour aider à défendre la ville.  Cette opération conjointe de militaires portugais et de rebelles guinéens a conduit à la plus grande vague d'arrestations en Guinée de toute la Première République. La vie du pays va être rythmée pendant de longs mois par des confessions publiques de personnes présentées comme les complices d'un « complot impérialiste » aux ramifications tentaculaires. Comment est-ce que votre père se positionnait par rapport à cette thèse du complot permanent contre la Guinée ? Et plus généralement, quel regard portait-il sur l'État policier qu'était aussi devenu la Guinée de cette époque ?  C'est quelque chose de très complexe et malheureusement, la Guinée ne s'est toujours pas réconciliée avec ce passé et les positions sont assez ancrées. Maintenant, si on parle de Kwame Ture précisément, pour lui, c'était un régime panafricaniste, le seul régime panafricaniste radical. Et malgré toutes ses erreurs, c'était celui qui pouvait tenir jusqu'au bout cette conviction qu'il avait lui-même. Il était totalement d'accord avec le fait qu'il fallait conserver ce régime pour qu'il ne bascule pas dans un régime néocolonialiste.  À tout prix ? À tout prix.  En 1974, il y a un autre évènement important pour l'Afrique et plus généralement pour le monde noir, c'est le combat en Afrique, à Kinshasa, entre Mohamed Ali et George Foreman. Dans un livre de mémoires, votre père indique qu'il a été invité par Mohamed Ali lui-même à venir à Kinshasa pour le combat. Est-ce que vous savez ce que représentait cet affrontement pour votre père ?  Mohamed Ali était son ami. Il y avait ce symbole de Mohamed Ali qui représentait l'Africain fier et George Foreman qui était un peu l'opposé de cela. Mais après, il a rencontré George Foreman et il disait que George Foreman l'avait séduit avec son charme, l'a embrassé et tout. Je pense qu'au-delà du symbolique, mon père était beaucoup plus intéressé par ce qui se passait au Congo démocratique, c'est-à-dire le Zaïre à l'époque, et le fait que c'était sous le régime de Mobutu Sese Seko, auquel il était farouchement opposé par ce qu'il représentait en termes de corruption et d'alignement avec les puissances coloniales. Qui sont de manière générale les acteurs politiques qui fréquentaient le salon de votre père dans ces années 1970 et au début des années 1980, pendant la Première République en Guinée ? On parle d'un melting pot qui ne dit pas son nom. Que ce soit des artistes - Miriam Makeba et Nina Simone, qui était une de ses amies très proches - ou des activistes de partout dans le monde. Qui venaient à Conakry et qui venaient le rencontrer ? Qui venaient à Conakry ou qui y vivaient. Parce que vous savez qu'à une époque, Conakry était un centre du monde noir où on conciliait l'art, les mouvements de libération, etc. Il y avait un grand nombre de personnes qui y vivaient, comme Amilcar Cabral, comme Kwame Nkrumahn, avant même il y avait Félix-Roland Moumié du Cameroun, pour ce qui est de la politique. Concernant les arts et la littérature, il y avait Ousmane Sembène qui y vivait, il y avait Maryse Condé qui y vivait. C'était vraiment un centre… et il se retrouve chez lui avec toutes ces personnes, plus ou moins de différentes sphères. Moi, je peux raconter avoir vu des activistes exilés sud-africains, Tsietsi Mashinini, qui a commencé la révolte estudiantine de Soweto, qui était parmi d'autres exilés sud-africains. Il y avait beaucoup d'Afro-Américains, bien sûr, des Black Panthers exilés. Il y avait la diplomatie guinéenne, des diplomates de pays gauchistes et souverainistes, il y avait tout un monde. Mais aussi, il faut savoir que Kwame Ture était vraiment penché vers la masse, la masse populaire. Donc autour de tout ça, on voit un chef villageois qui est assis ou on voit la personne déshéritée du quartier qui est là, assise, qui peut recevoir un repas. Parce que notre maison était comme un centre communautaire pour la jeunesse du quartier. Il amenait tous les enfants du quartier à la plage chaque dimanche. Puis se retrouvait peut-être un mardi à saluer un chef d'État. Puis avait une conférence avec un groupe communautaire. Moi, j'ai vu tout cela dans cette maison. C'était quelque chose de magique. Il recevait où, justement ? Dans son salon, dans son bureau ? Y avait-il un rituel autour de la réception de ses amis politiques ? Déjà, il avait une véranda où il était assis… parce que c'était un bibliophile. Il lisait beaucoup, il écrivait beaucoup. Il ne lisait pas pour le plaisir, mais il lisait pour ses conférences. Après, il y a des gens qui venaient pour le rencontrer. Je sais qu'il y a eu Charles Taylor qui était venu de nulle part pour le rencontrer. C'était vraiment un melting pot.    À cette époque, votre père continue aussi ses voyages et ses tournées, il n'est pas tout le temps à Conakry ? Il était très organisé. Sur toutes ses photos, il écrivait les dates et les lieux. On se demande comment il pouvait parcourir toutes ces distances en si peu de temps. Un jour, on le voit au Connecticut. Le lendemain, on le voit à Paris, banni, chassé. En Angleterre, peut-être, d'où il est banni et chassé. Parce que c'était très compliqué pour lui d'avoir accès a beaucoup de pays. Après, on le voit en Californie... Il était partout. Sékou Touré disparaît en 1984. Mais votre père continue, lui, son engagement pour ses idées au sein du Parti démocratique de Guinée. Qu'est-ce qui a marqué ces années de militantisme politique sous Lansana Conté ? Le contexte a vraiment changé !  Et c'est là que l'on voit vraiment les convictions de l'homme. Parce que, du jour au lendemain, tout a changé. Il a été arrêté par le régime de Lansana Conté. Donc, il a perdu les privilèges qu'il avait, bien sûr, où il connaissait le président et était sous sa tutelle. Mais malgré cela, il a décidé de rester en Guinée. La moitié de sa vie guinéenne, quinze ans, s'est passée ainsi. Il a décidé malgré tout de rester en Guinée, d'être actif dans la vie politique guinéenne et la vie sociale de la Guinée.  … Et de rester fidèle à ses convictions.  Exactement. Vous êtes à l'époque enfant. Quel souvenir est-ce que vous gardez de ces années, de votre maison à Conakry, de ceux qui y passaient ? Quelle était l'ambiance ? Vous disiez tout à l'heure que tout le quartier se retrouvait chez vous…  C'est cela. Mon père était d'une gentillesse rare, d'un altruisme qu'on ne retrouve pas très souvent. Donc effectivement, c'était pour moi quelque chose de très formateur. Comment quelqu'un peut traiter un chef d'État avec le même respect qu'il traite la personne la plus déshéritée du quartier. Et toutes ces personnes pouvaient se retrouver chez lui, devant lui, avec le même respect, ou peut-être même le déshérité avec un peu plus d'amour.  Vous appelez régulièrement les Guinéens à se souvenir de votre père, Stokely Carmichael / Kwame Ture. Avez-vous le sentiment que son histoire a été oubliée en Guinée ?  Je parle de manière générale. Il y a une politique de mémoire en Guinée qui doit être améliorée. Stokely Carmichael est un pont unique entre l'Afrique et l'Amérique. On parle d'un personnage qui a passé la moitié de sa vie en Guinée. À ce stade, l'État guinéen n'a pas fait une seule initiative pour se réapproprier de l'héritage de cette personnalité.  Donc il y a un vrai chantier ? Il y a un chantier.  Une dernière question plus personnelle. Quel père a été Stokely Carmichael ? Quelle image retenez-vous de lui ?  Un père adorable, d'une gentillesse rarissime, qui m'a beaucoup appris, que j'ai profondément aimé. Quelqu'un qui était attaché à tout ce qui est beau dans le monde, à commencer par les enfants. ►A lire pour aller plus loin : BERTHO Elara, Un couple panafricain, Editions Rot-Bo-Krik, 2025 À (ré)écouterElara Bertho: «Replacer Conakry au centre des imaginaires, c'était un peu l'idée de cet ouvrage»

If you ever listened to Nestor Aparicio on the radio anytime from 1994 through 2014, you heard the opening theme song many times. "Do you want to get Nastee?" was a line written and rapped by Kwame', who is involved in the National Hip-Hop Hall of Fame induction ceremony on August 23rd. Last month, he appeared in a community event here at Gwynn Oak Park and the stars aligned to allow him to finally face the music of being a very fun and important ingredient in the sound of the history of Baltimore sports radio. The post Hip Hop Hall of Fame and creator of Nastee theme song Kwame joins Nestor to discuss his career beyond the song you know first appeared on Baltimore Positive WNST.

In this episode of the Everyday Black Men podcast, the crew is joined by Kwame Terra, who walked 2 million steps in 30 days and aims to revolutionize Black health through his bEHR Health app. Kwame explains how he balanced building his company while walking up to 80 miles a day, prompting Reed to ask about his soundtrack and Sham to question the sanity of the feat. The group dives into Black health disparities, with Kwame emphasizing that 80% of wellness is how you live, not genetics or medicine, and citing that even a 64-year-old woman can work on her fitness enough to be on track for a million steps by herself. Kwame indulges the crew with Riker asking how a plant-based living has helped Kwame mentally, and The Black Libertarian reflects on society's resistance to prioritizing self-improvement. Kwame leaves the crew with a challenge: reimagine your morning routine, skip processed foods, and move toward health goals with intention and community, highlighting the potential for personal growth and empowerment in this journey. The episode wraps with thoughts on changing Black morning routines, building community through fitness, and Kwame's upcoming app launch in October—which puts us one step closer to covering the distance to the moon.LinksLinktree: bit.ly/4mguF9S IG: bit.ly/4oc4vXzWebsite: bit.ly/4fvvoC5Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/everyday-black-men--2988631/support.

Getting them to think reading is cool is another. Kwame Alexander excels at both. His ability to authentically relate to his readers is a skill around which he has built his career.Kwame is beloved by parents, educators, and students, for his ability to ignite a love of reading (especially middle school boys) through poetry and characters who reflect their real experiences. But his impact extends beyond just an introduction to books; he also opens the door for readers to explore their own emotional depths. As he tells us, “I think part of my job is just to show a different side of masculinity.”Kwame is best known for "The Crossover," "The Undefeated," "The Door of No Return," and numerous other novels and poetry collections. He also recently authored his memoir "Why Fathers Cry at Night." He won the Newbery Medal and Coretta Scott King Book Award among many other awards, and this year, "The Crossover" was adapted into a Disney+ original TV series. In this episode, he tells us about his own upbringing surrounded by Black storytelling and literature, reveals his secret to making middle-schoolers think he's “cool”, and shares about a letter he received (which was “not fan mail”) that inspired a surprise visit to an unsuspecting kid.***Connect with Jordan and The Reading Culture @thereadingculturepod and subscribe to our newsletter at thereadingculturepod.com/newsletter. ***This episode's Beanstack Featured Librarian is Kirsten, the programming specialist for the Indianapolis Public Library.

Think you're in control of what you're saying? Think again. Before you utter a single word, elite negotiators are already reading you — through your posture, your gestures, your tone, your tension. In this episode, Kwame sits down with The Master Negotiator Greg Williams, one of the world's top experts in body language, to reveal the invisible signals that shape the outcome of every negotiation. You'll learn how to spot the hidden meaning behind someone's words, how to time your own message for maximum impact, and how to protect yourself when someone tries to use your own body against you. If you're not reading these signs, you're negotiating blind.

Continuing the masterclass on confident communication, Part 2 of Lisa Bilyeu's transformative interview with Kwame Christian dives even deeper into the actionable side of navigating life's toughest conversations. This half is your tactical toolkit for boundary-setting, breaking free from people-pleasing, and leveling up your negotiation skills—both with others and with yourself.

You'll discover how to pivot conflicts into cooperative journeys, decode body language for deeper understanding, and master the art of healthy detachment in the face of disrespect. Plus, Kwame reveals the core negotiation issue most women face (and how to finally advocate for what you truly want), the script for when someone refuses to listen, and the surprising power of indifference. Insightful, practical, and empowering, this episode leaves you ready to be the hero of your own life—no matter who's on the other side of the table.
