Send us Fan MailPeace, family. I’m Neo Griot—Afrocentric, Pan-African, secular humanist, atheist, skeptic.And this is Rational Black Thought—where we don’t do bedtime stories for adults.  Episode 266 is titled: “We are the winners if we unclose our eyes.” which are lyrics from the song Nostalgie Amoureuse by the group Zap Mama led by Marie Daulne. I am not using this as a hashtag. It’s meant as a survival manual. It is saying the truth is before us, we just need to open our eyes and see it, and remaining indifferent in the face of injustice is the same as not seeing it, perhaps worse.  The world rewards one thing consistently: people who can see clearly—especially when the system is designed to blind them. Intro:Quote of the Week: Del Jones Unmasking the News: Davos Lies and the Weaponization of Ignorance Jim Jordan murders justice and lets the criminals off the hook Another week, another “holy” scandalGood News: The Black Fund: Investing to Benefit All Strategies for Black Power: Systemic Enemy Analysis—A strategy narrative for people who are done being fooled Reflections and Call to Action:Closing/Outro: Sources:https://www.weforum.org/stories/2026/01/davos-2026-special-address-donald-trump-president-united-states-america/https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/trump-prosecutor-smith-condemn-false-narratives-about-probe-house-testimony-2026-01-22/https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/18/louisiana-clergy-abuse-korey-lavergne?https://theblackfundcentraltx.org/celebrating-collective-impact/Power Concedes Nothing without a Demand...
