Freestyle 4: The Troublemakers

Living in a world that wants you to be yourself, being yourself can be a Revolutionary act. In a world that forces us to whisper-  Some of us choose to yell. Then you have the few of us that decide to make trouble. We make trouble in spaces that do not know how to hold the truth. We are the Good Troublemakers, the professional instigators- if you will. We are the everyday people who call out the bullshit, identify the problems, and remove disparities, and we prove a voice for the voiceless. In this episode it is my goal to provide more detail about how the black community can make trouble, to introduce the black troublemakers and instigators of American history, and to stress the historical importance of Resistance and Civil Disobedience in American history. It is our job to speak truth to power. Not just when it’s difficult, but especially when it’s difficult.  The Afrocentric Podcast would like to invite you to trouble the waters, and to become troublemakers.
