Ghetto Philosopher Podcast
by Tyree West
Hello everyone, I am honored to bring you all a podcast that will be a variety based show, focused on everyday people and the conversations/struggles we have. My goal is to bring a voice to the unheard, with laughter, knowledge, honesty, compassion, dedication, and creativity. This podcast speaks for those who had to take their less fortunate circumstances and turn them into a strength. It is to bring unity and understanding, so that we all can coexist together with respect. I will speak on issues and topics ranging from politics to celebrity news. My goal is to educate and enlighten, providing different perspectives so that we all have more than one way of seeing things. Lastly but certainly not least, this podcast is a way to give back to the ghetto's in the world. With the understanding that "Ghetto" is describing a place of hardship and survival, and not a caricature of a group of people. This podcast is rooted in the legal field and will discuss/give legal tips and information. I
