Society & Culture
I would be neglecting my duty as a change agent and advocate to the advancement of all people, specifically black and brown people, if I did not address the most recent events in our social climate. Since the birth of this nation, black and brown people have been enslaved, oppressed and discriminated against. Most recently, we have been hunted by the very individuals who have taken an oath to protect and serve. The recent murders of Rayshard Brooks, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd, and Ahmaud Arbery have sparked global outrage and initiated protests aimed at combating the systematic oppression that black people face around the world. This episode is an expression of the many different emotions that I am facing as a black man in 2020. 2 Free Months of Skillshare: https://skl.sh/3bRIsiw My Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/yooxmac Please sign these petitions in efforts to combat police brutality: Rayshard Brooks: http://chng.it/J8DQgbPqpz Breonna Taylor: https://www.change.org/p/andy-beshear-justice-for-breonna-taylor?source_location=petitions_browse George Floyd: https://www.change.org/p/mayor-jacob-frey-justice-for-george-floyd?source_location=petitions_browse Ahmaud Arbery: https://www.change.org/p/district-attorney-tom-durden-justice-for-ahmaud-arbery-i-run-with-maud?source_location=petitions_browse 00:00 – Episode Introduction 00:49 – M2AM Theme Song 01:40 – Mission Statement & M2AM explanation 02:20 – Life Update 05:50 – MAC Map of The Week 31:18 – My Black Life Matters 55:00 – Episode Wrap Up Follow us social media | @Mission2AMill “Keep chasing those millions!” M.A.C.
