show moreSpecial Episode discussing the racial tension exploding in America surrounding George Floyd and the media's role. This episode is going to hit a little harder than the first as we are going to bring up solutions and self-responsibility including statistics and bringing up the hard to discuss topic of black on black crime. We have special discussion guests, Curtis Harkness and Aaron Smalls for this 2nd Event. We are expecting and hoping to have a discussion on this episode from Kash Lee Kelly, who in just a few short weeks has become a voice for change after an impassioned Facebook live video went viral.
The concept about this hour+ on politics is to create open dialogue. I have made myself well versed in politics, with a willingness to research every bit of information that comes my way and separating fact from "media fact," based on exhaustive research and common sense in the English language. This will be an open forum for discussion. The first couple were incredibly productive. I'm going to share my thoughts, and answer comments. I'll be keeping this show to one hour (ish) and again, looking to continue this regularly. This week I have a guest or two lined up (expecting Kash Lee Kelly) and we are going to cover the George Floyd tragedy and overall racial divisions in this country. We will also discuss current issues with main stream media causing division and uncomfortable opinions without judgement or hate. I also want to touch on the Drew Brees discussion.
Here's the "Event" - this starts at 5:30 pm EDT and will go for about an hour to explain the danger in all the hateful posting going on with political posts. Right now, as a country we are in this together and I want to separate opinion from facts, logic from emotion, and what happens when we start to share our "opinions" as fact. Also, I want to challenge some people on their beliefs that may have been rooted in half-truths. We talked in detail about awareness last week, but didn't talk about important parts of created change this week, including self responsibility from all people.
At the end of the day my belief is with the company I started to. #bethechange you wish to see in the world and the spreading of division and hate going on in a time of turmoil that we as a planet are going through is unacceptable.
Don't be a #socialmediawarrior - instead be a #changeagent with an #openmind
There are too many that are venting whilst presenting their messages as facts and those messages getting shared over and over. What they are doing is no different from a virus, my friends, your friends, so many people on FB are spreading inaccurate messages and presenting them as truth. I don't believe the News wants to present accurate news as much as the good ole' days because division and hate sells.
So I will be live-streaming at approximately. 5:30 pm Eastern time on Tuesday the 9nd of June right here on Facebook and YouTube.
I want both my liberal and conservative friends alike to join me and I will be coming at this conversation from strictly a point of logic and hope. We are allowed to differ in opinions, but we have to separate emotion from logic. I can also invite people on to the stream to have a discussion live instead of just via comments so please feel free to join me, discuss, debate, argue, whatever. I just want to create an open forum to discuss the concept of truth and how dangerous the spreading of judgement and hate without true information can be. #bethechange.
ALSO, IF YOU WANT ME TO SEND A REMINDER, JUST COMMENT BELOW AND I'LL REMEMBER TO TAG YOU IN THE SCHEDULED POST... I have several people that I will be tagging that have requested, but I would love to have a solid conversation and start to bring rational logic back in this world.
Why is this important to me? I'm a free citizen that has a very open mind and self-educates exhaustively, and it is my right and my wish to do so. Also, with that though process I consider myself a voice of logic and kindness looking to constantly promote positivity despite all the division and hate.
Let's learn together. I will do my best to be searching different articles to determine what really is the truth, so we can all learn, including me, but at the end of the day I suggest tolerance, love, kindness over spreading hate and issues.
Jump on at 5:30 pm, I'll start with some basic thoughts and then I'll get to work fielding concepts and thoughts!
