In the Hold my Drink — navigating culture with a chaser of civility, and Counterweight podcast, Episode 68 we speak with Michael DC Bowen founder of the Conservative Brotherhood, Rights Universal and Free Black Thought. Mike shares his story of growing up as a Black Nationalist until coming to the realization that diversity, not only the black community, but also across humanity, necessitates a more universalist approach to achieve real unity and equality. Ignoring this diversity has kept us locked in a vicious cycle of past grievances, and Mike gives us a key to the future of unity and solidarity in his imagination of a new American identity. All discussed with a chaser of civility, of course, and coffee whiskey.
