On this episode of the Black Lotus podcast, we brought on sage and longtime friend, Joshua Sanders, to talk about his experiences as a former college athlete, and as an HBCU student at Philander Smith College in Little Rock, Arkansas. We discussed what it is like to live in America as young black men, what our futures hold, conflicts within history, and some intriguing stories. This was a very enjoyable episode, let us know what you think. As long as you show love, we’ll stay consistent.
