Send us Fan MailWINNING BY SOWING THE SEEDS OF EMPOWERMENTInterviewee Leah Penniman and Fairfax criminal lawyer Jonathan Katz are good friends with Jon's essential peace teacher (and prior Beat the Prosecution podcast guest) Jun Yasuda, whose beautiful peace pagoda is less than two miles from Leah's Soul Fire Farm. Leah's story is one of never giving up nor giving in, which is also essential for criminal defense. She experienced substantial racism while growing up, and kept persevering, including with learning about farming. Long ago, Leah, her husband and children lived in an Albany food desert, and ultimately, she and her husband bought the farmland that is now Soul Fire Farm. Leah did not stop at merely opening a farm, but has a nonprofit to assist lower income people with food, and welcomes countless people to learn about self empowerment and farming. Leah tells some captivating stories, including about African women who would braid seeds into their hair, to have them available for planting in the event they were forced into slavery. Leah does not candy coat the hurdles in life, the history of racism (including in farming), and the continuing racism found too extensively in society. She recognizes those hurdles and continues persevering. Leah's thoughts on helping criminal defendants, are, aptly, for them to remember that they and all beings are sacred. I recommend donating to Soul Fire Farm, and reading Leah's books Farming While Black- Soul Fire Farm's Practical Guide to Liberation on the Land, and Black Earth Wisdom: Soulful Conversations with Black Environmentalists (2023). Coming next is Children of the Land: A Soul Fire Farm Parenting Guide, authored by Leah and her child Neshima. Here is the video version of this episode. Here is the Apple podcast version.

Black Resilience is the evolution of the Black Lives Matter movement, carrying messages of empowerment and the blueprint for success.

He shared how he grew up and have to deal with racism as a student and as an individual.

In today's current political climate I thought it best to re-air a classic episode from this year! Matthew is a rare guest on the show being that he's a black man. And not only is he a black man in a world trying to stop him, but he goes totally against the grain in fighting for a change that every black man needs. In a world where I get a new email everyday from some woman(pitching to be on my show) who broke through in her desired field and now wants to help other woman, I don't ever get emails from black men wanting to help other black men. This interview is very important! Listen Good!#FreeKyrie #FreeYeSupport the showPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/whyinetwork

However, many have overcome these barriers and achieved the American Dream. Jevon McCormick, who joins us in this episode, is one of the many examples of individuals that have achieved massive success despite incredible adversity.

Overcoming Racism and Renewing the Promise of America “We can be different and united—the value of the American experiment is contingent on the truth of this proposition.” —Theodore Roosevelt Johnson III Dr. Theodore R. Johnson is the great-grandson of sharecroppers who, unfathomably, believed in what Johnson calls “the Promise,” that we Americans are created equal and that “each of us will respect and defend the rights and liberty of others.” Willie and Annie Johnson so believed in that promise that they named Dr. Johnson's grandfather and namesake Theodore Roosevelt Johnson, after our 26th president invited the first black man, Booker T. Washington, to the White House for dinner. Dr. Johnson shares his family's deep reverence for this American experiment, but also believes our failure to bind together around our highest ideals is an existential threat to our future. Join us as Dr. Johnson makes an invitation—and a challenge—to all of us, born of lived experience as a black son of the American south and love of this country he took an oath to preserve. Facilitated by Dr. Nashid Madyun, Executive Director of Florida Humanities. Dr. Theodore R. Johnson is a public policy scholar and military veteran who served as a White House Fellow and speechwriter to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Ted is currently a Senior Fellow and Director of the Fellows Program at the Brennan Center for Justice at the NYU School of Law. He holds a Doctorate of Law and Policy, and his research focuses primarily on African American political behavior as well as civic solidarity. Find this event online at The Village Square.

In this episode, we build on our discussion from last week on grieving and look at it through the lens of the ongoing police brutality and murders of black people. What can we do to challenge racism?
