Send us Fan MailI TOTALLY LOST MY EDITED EPISODE AND I HAD TO EDIT THIS IN THE AIRPORT THIS MORNING TO GET THIS OUT ON THE AIR.  STAY TUNED FOR PART 2 VERY SOON. IF THIS ISN'T A SIGN OF THE TIMES, I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS!!!!Imagine waking up to a world where your favorite digital platform is suddenly gone, leaving a void in your daily routine. That's the reality I faced with the TikTok ban, and it's not just an app—it was a lifeline for connection and expression for millions, including myself. In this episode, I unravel the intricate web of political maneuvers, including Donald Trump's involvement, that led to this seismic shift. Through my own story of navigating backlash and building a community of 3,000 followers, I share insights on the power of authentic communication and the courage it takes to break free from introversion to create a supportive and engaged circle of voices.The conversation takes a deeply personal turn as I recount a raw and emotional argument with my father over politics and values. Despite the hurt, there's is always hope as the unwavering commitment to equality, kindness, and inclusivity remains at the core of my beliefs. A pivotal phone call with my daughter brings these values into sharp focus, highlighting the urgent need to bridge gaps in understanding while holding firm to principles of fairness. Join me on this journey as I navigate the delicate balance of familial love and the pursuit of social justice, all while reflecting on what it means to stay true to oneself in a divided world.Support the showWatch the episodes on YOUTUBE: Sassy Politicshttps://www.youtube.com/@SassypoliticsWebsitehttps://christichanelle.com/TikTok- ChristiChanellehttps://www.tiktok.com/@christichanelle?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pcFacebook - Sassy Politicshttps://www.facebook.com/SassyPoliticsInstagram- ChristiChanellehttps://www.instagram.com/christichanelle/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet
