Okay

Okay

Y'all hear them, don't you?

Okay

This kind of good look

You may be wondering

Okay

Period

Okay

I don't even want the song to end. Okay. I don't even want to do my intro

We already have station like music station now, okay

You tuned into the black conversion show with Brandy Grayson on 92.7 FM WN DX and that song was really good

Luke Dole like I really was feeling it you can have to take it to me. Okay

I was like I thought about it this week and I was like why have I not laid this one for Brandy?

Oh my god

Yes, perfect song. Okay. Thank you. Look

So anyway, right or right? We're just talking about the importance of transformative justice what it means to

increase our emotional capacity to have difficult conversations be innovative be deliberate be intentional

Anti-racist work is hard y'all

It's an emotional and it can feel very personal and when you have

Ideologies that are not congruent with people or opposite or opposing or appear to be opposing

It could feel personal, but this work is not personal. We must stick to our result and our result is to a

eradicate racism and not just for people known as black, but for the world

We got we got plain delays because of it

Everything is chaotic right now. We about to go we about to be in war because white supremacy

Taxes are about to get out get cut off medicated cut off. We can't produce food anymore in our own country

White supremacy is not a thing that we should be supporting and or complacent with anymore white people brown

People indigenous people we really need to get out our own way

Which are often internal from being a part of this insidious insidious context, which is white supremacy

So anyway moving on. Okay. I also want to tell you about my experience. I was invited

I'm telling you I'm trying to do something different. I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing

But I just know I'm doing I'm trying to do something different and one of those things before I tell you where I was invited

Is I woke up the other day. I couldn't sleep and you know and if people who believe in the spiritual world

When your spirit is restless that means there's something you need to do and you need to like sit with it

So I got up and started cleaning everything every drawing my house every receipt

Everything in my closet. I never wear or not going where I got rid of it all and I mean it was bags and bags of stuff

And it was just a random act and one of those things I'm about to tell y'all some of my personal tea

One of those things is that my partner had stuff at my house and when I was cleaning my closet

I had this urge just to get his stuff out of my house like get it out the closet

And I did that and I moved it to another closet and I got to that closet. I was organizing. I was like no

I got to get his stuff out right there was a need for me to clean out the energy in my home and then

And then like I'm talking to him and I go to his house y'all and I walk in and he like

Ignores me and I sit down and he kind of ignores me again. And then I'm like

I look I look at him and I

And in that moment I was like this ain't working and I got up and left got in my car

Text him and said I'm done. I ain't talked to him since y'all

So that's some tea that y'all can go and talk about and the reason I think it's important is because sometimes the things that we are holding

On to are the things that we need to let go of right and my spirit have been so uneasy since my birthday

There was a couple of things that trans

That occurred that was not okay that were harmful and I had just been like denying it and allowing things to happen

And recently I've had this like re-energize

desire and push from my ancestors to clean my house literally and

I have and I have to tell you I feel lighter. I feel I feel a little

nervous, but I feel lighter. I went to the war ceremony

This week and I wanted to call somebody like oh my god, you should have been here

I wanted to call someone after the Baltimore incident

I wanted to share and vent how frustrating it was and have someone listen and and that made me miss him

But then I had to remind myself that this is the time for you to

Expand evolve it's time for you to read it's time for you to write it's time for you to reflect it's time for you to take you

To the next level wherever level that is so I just want to share that you guys like listen to your spirit

Um and remember I'm not mad at him at all. I just

At things grow apart some things just stop working and we just have to be real with ourselves

So there's your Brandy Grayson tea so y'all can go run tell that y'all love tea so y'all can run and tell that

But also I'm here on the black conversion show again

But they were in there. They were talking about how they needed you know, we needed to rally fun rent

Rays um to stop this trump thing and you know and to stop this bill

And then they were talking about all these things that they have done in caucus and what they do in caucus

And then when it came to and then they had a q&a and then there's three people questions before my question

And when it came to my question y'all the

Their staff are whispered over to someone someone whispered to someone else and they say we're not taking anymore questions

We have to go like as soon as I was I swear and it was awkward because people could see it happening

And then my boy Marcus uh pastor Marcus Alan. He he's the host. He's like the person that's in control of the mic

He's looking you think you can see it on his face like dang sis. You know what I mean? He but he's such a cool dude
