Eboni K. Williams talks about the spirit of disruption in this week's episode. Her work disrupts long and deeply seeded cultural norms and expectations. She shares with us how rewarding her work is as disruption is an essential part of change and change is constant. And yet, she also speaks of how heavy her work can be. "...people, we, don't like change and aren't comfortable around disruption." Eboni came to the Process because she, "wanted family more than I was afraid of doing the work that it would take to get there." She shares about her own Process and how her teacher, Regina Louise, was able to help her breakthrough her resistance that showed up at the very first assignment on the first day of her Process. As Hoffman grads, we know change is vital to personal transformation. The Process itself is disruptive. The Process takes us out of our comfort zone and disrupts patterns. It opens us to the pain of our past so we can heal that same pain. Eboni is unapologetically driven to give voice to the voiceless through her platform - a tapestry of television, law, social justice, and entertainment. She knows her presence is power in the rooms where she has often been the first and only Black person. Positioned for disruption, Eboni enters these opportunities representing Black excellence intent on demonstrating and inspiring what is possible for Black people in America.

Minister Louis Farrakhan delivered a worldwide address on Saturday (July 4) at 11 a.m. ET/8 a.m. PT. Titled “The Criterion,” his message will addressed “the current state of affairs in America, the world, the Coronavirus pandemic and other critical subjects.”  For the last couple of months, Black people have been hitting the streets to protest racism and police brutality following the deaths of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, Rayshard Brooks, and many more innocent Black lives who were unjustly taken as a result of law enforcement's excessive force.  “This message will not just be for Muslims; it is not just for Christians; it is not just for Jews, it is for every inhabitant of this planet,” the political activist said. “I say to you with deep humility from the 25th Surah of the Qur'an: ‘Blessed is He who sent down the discrimination upon His servant that he might be a warner to the nations.'”
