Oakland is a city of just over 4 hundred thousand people located in California's bay area across the water from its bigger and far more famous sister city, San Francisco. Despite its relatively smaller size and relationship as the “other” city to San Francisco. Oakland has produced some brilliant music by the likes of Pharoah Sanders, The Pointer Sisters, Sheila E. MC Hammer, 2pac, Souls of Mischief, Del tha funky homosapien, Raphael Sadiq and Seasick Steve. When it comes to music there are a few genres that Oakland has been known particularly for over the years and they are Jazz, Blues, Soul and Hip Hop. In the early 1900s a wave of jazz musicians arrived with the migration of labourers that moved to the bay area from places like New Orleans to work on the railroads that were being built at the time. By the 1960s there was already a highly developed jazz scene in the city. Clubs like Creole Café, Musicians Union Club, Sweet's Ballroom and the Burma Lounge had live jazz music playing every night of the week and it was in this fertile jazz scene that one of the genres all time greats made his first moves in Jazz Music. In 1959 a young man called Ferrel Lee Sanders moved from his hometown of little rock in Arkansas to live with relatives and study art and music at Oakland City college. Ferrel would go on to become the jazz musician known as Pharaoh Sanders, a legendary performer that would play in John Coltrane's live band, collaborate with Leon Thomas and Alice Coltrane and who was highly influential in the development of free jazz and spiritual Jazz. A decade after Pharoah Sanders moved to Oakland, a girl group consisting of sisters June, Bonnie and Anita Pointer started performing in the nightclubs of Oakland with their own blend of Jazz, blues and soul music. The name of their group was The Pointer Sisters and they would go on to achieve huge success, winning three grammys and scoring many world-wide chart topping hits over there long career which still continues to this day. Growing up in the Excovedo's the jazz club that her father opened in the lakeshore district of Oakland Sheila Cecilia Escovedo or Sheila E. as she went on to be known by was a percussionist, related to the legendary latino jazz conga player Tito Puente, she started out performing percussion with The George Duke Band but after leaving the group, Sheila gained relative success with the release of her debut single ‘The Glamourous Life, a piece of soulful pop music that pays hommage to her background as a percussionist and her upbringing in Oakland's jazz scene. In the late 1980s a young man hip hop artist going by the name of 2pac started making waves out of oakland with his own brand of rap music that addressed the contemporary social issues being faced by african americans in the inner cities. Though at times surrounded by controversy, 2pac would go on to become one of the highest selling music artists of the 1990s, one of the most influential rappers of all time and a symbol of activism against inequality. In the 1990s Oakland's music scene went through a particularly fertile period for the newly emerging sound of west coast 90s hip hop. In 1991 the formation of a new crew called Hierglyphics which assembled some of the cities best hip hop producers and MCs signalled a new dawn for oakland hip hop. The founder of Hieroglyphics was a rapper that went by the name of Del The Funky Homosapien. Founding Hieroglyphics was a move that solidified the Oakland hip hop scene and put oakland on the map for hip hop in the 1990s.

For ten years, the Black Organizing Project (BOP) fought to remove police from Oakland schools. Developed from BOP's Peoples' Plan for Police Free Schools (2019) and an accumulation of a 9 year organizing campaign launched in 2011, the George Floyd Resolution (GFR) was passed June 24, 2020 making Oakland Unified School District the first district in the country to eliminate an entire school police department. In 2020 they won that fight and the George Floyd Resolution was passed. But that was just the beginning of the work and the state is still pushing back – desperate to hang on to the status quo. BOP has released the peoples budget – a road map – and how much it will cost to stop criminalizing our children. We are joined by Ebony Johnson, the Black Sanctuary Organizer with the Black Organizing Project. She leads most of the Black Organizing Project's work surrounding the George Floyd Resolution and the People's Budget.

Lil Baby surprised fans Friday with an unannounced drop of two new singles, “Right On” and “In A Minute,” each accompanied by a music video. The songs mark the Grammy Award-winning rapper's first solo releases of 2022. In both clips, Lil Baby finds himself surrounded by the finer things in life — money, designer clothing, luxury automobiles, beautiful women, adoring fans. “Right On” takes place in Atlanta's Oakland City neighborhood, where the 27-year-old grew up — and Lil Baby isn't afraid to show his hometown how far he's come as he parades down residential streets in a fleet of Rolls-Royce Phantoms. Throughout the track, Lil Baby details his prowess with the ladies as he taunts his haters. “Tell the police I don't do nothing,” he says. “I been selling these songs.” While the “Right On” video involves several fictional storylines, “In A Minute” culls footage from Lil Baby's daily life, showing the rapper traveling the world on private jets, meeting fans and hanging out with friends. After receiving eight nominations in total, Lil Baby took home his first Grammy Award last week, winning Best Melodic Rap Performance for “Hurricane,” a collaboration with Kanye West and The Weeknd. The rapper is scheduled to perform at Coachella this month, followed by a handful of stand-alone shows and festival appearances — including Lollapalooza — throughout the summer.

Standout Quotes:I used to believe effective communication was me finding exactly the right words to express what I needed to say but have learned it is about co-creating shared meaning with others.I do not believe anyone is broken and believe in the inherent wisdom inside of people.I had to unlearn anxiety to learn to become more relational. About our guest, Nina Horne:Nina Horne is founder and CEO of Samara Family Services,  a company focused on building healthier teens and happier families through skill-building and mentoring: samarafamilyservices.com   As a public policy expert, large-scale systems builder, and emotional health advocate, her goal is to ensure every teen and young adult has the skills needed to manage difficult times.  Most important, she’s a mom who’s been there and back.  At home, Nina teaches meditation in nature and is a reiki healer for underserved cancer patients in Oakland, CA.Nina was born and raised in the deep south and grew up steeped in southern hospitality.  But she is also a natural extrovert who was shaped by her genuine curiosity.  She believes that if she hasn't found something interesting in a conversation it was because she was asking the wrong questions. After she left her higher education publishing career, Nina went on to become an Oakland City commissioner for Oakland, Calfornia but quickly learned that she didn't have all the tools she needed to make good decisions.  So she took her natural curiosity and went back to grad school.Nina soon found herself taking on very complex challenges for the UN, several White Houses, the EPA, and The State Department.  She has used her many years of being a natural connector in representing the US in negotiating with other nations.But her internal work was also a huge part of her learning.  Hear how Nina's own work in therapy with her own anxiety using techniques like EMDR radically shifted her from being a connector to a more deeply related human.

The Community of Grace: Day to day life in a curbside community in Oakland May 3, 2019 Homelessness is rising dramatically in the Bay Area, but usually communities are covered by the news only when there's a crisis – only when there's a fire, or an eviction – some kind of crisis that throws the people who live there into conflict with city officials. But there are a lot of people living their day to day lives in those tents and RVs. There are a lot of people trying to figure out how to get their needs met, under very trying circumstances. Our long-form reporter, Lucy Kang, spent more than two months visiting, recording interviews, and learning the rhythms of daily life at one place called the Community of Grace: the rules they live by, how it enforces them, how people wound up there, and where they hope to get to in the future. In November 2019, Kang won 2019 Excellence in Journalism Award for Explanatory Journalism from the Society of Professional Journalists Northern CA Chapter.

Jeremie Kubicek and Steve Cockram are the Co-Founders of GiANT, a leadership development program that helps build leaders into Sherpas. Jeremie and Steve are also the co-authors of the book The 100x Leader, a #1 Best Seller on Amazon. They join the show to talk with Jim and Jan about how leaders can become someone worth following, what leadership programs today get completely wrong, and why intentionality and self-awareness are critical to a leader’s success.    ~~~~~ ~~~~~  The Leadership Podcast is proud to announce a new initiative with thoughtLEADERS to provide very short podcasts called “chalk talks.” They’re “bitesize” hacks on common (but challenging) leadership issues.    You can only access the Chalk Talks by subscribing to our mailing list at The Leadership Podcast.    ~~~~~ ~~~~~    Key Takeaways  [2:55] Steve lived in the United States for five years before moving back home to the UK. He enjoys recreational golf and spending time with his wife of 27 years and his children. Jeremie was living in London, but has since moved back to the United States. As a side project with his wife of 24 years, they are building modern farm houses in Oakland City. [5:55] Most leaders are people you ‘have to follow’, which can often cause friction in an organization. It creates complacency with your employees and makes it very difficult to get engagement and buy-in.   [11:00] Leaders need to supply the rope to help their team get to the next level. If you haven’t established trust with them, then it becomes very difficult to motivate and challenge them. A good leader understands where their employees are mentally and if they need support or to be challenged.  [16:40] Jeremie uses the metaphor that leaders are gardeners. Every person on their team is like a plant that wants to be cared for differently. By catering to each personality types of your team members, you build a more engaged workforce than a complacent one.  [22:20] The biggest problem with leadership development is that it’s very individualistic. Leaders need to be looking at themselves like a sherpa. No one has climbed Mount Everest without one. They play a critical role in a mission’s success through their expertise and knowledge, and they help 3-4+ people at a time achieve their goals.  [27:25] Jeremie had an epiphany in Cancun after he watched the movie Signs with Mel Gibbons and getting hit by a drunk driver. This event completely reshaped Jeremie’s view on the world and how he runs his company today. [37:45] A lot of leaders are accidental, but what they really need to be is intentional. The first step to becoming a better leader is to be intentional with your personal life and have it reflect in your professional life as well. [41:55] Jeremie believes it’s important to be honest with your team and let them know you are working on your weaknesses. By being transparent, you are able to gain trust and respect.    Strategic Partner   Beyond the Uniform offers over 300 free episodes to help military Veterans succeed in their civilian career.

Most people want to [be a leader] overnight. Fix you, fix you! But you have to take them on a journey, and it’s a self-awareness journey.”  “[This traumatic accident] reshaped my view on the world and it changed my view on people; that people can be an asset, not a liability.”  “If you think you’re going to be that type of leader without working at it, you’re deluded because it will not happen.”    Giant Worldwide The 100X Leader: How to Become Someone Worth Following by Jeremie Kubicek and Steve Cockram     Instagram: @WeStudyLeaders LinkedIn: @TheLeadershipPodcast  Facebook: @westudyleaders Twitter: @westudyleaders Website: The Leadership Podcast  info@theleadershippodcast.com
