I also believe in having a diverse group of friends from different political, socio-economic, and cultural backgrounds. This is why I decided to invite some of my friends to come on the pod to discuss a myriad of topics from the NBA, African-American history, racism, slavery, politics, the black family and more.
Shomari, Chad, and Damani are three articulate, funny, and highly intelligent men that I respect even though we don't agree on a lot of issues.
Friction is okay.
