À propos de cet audio
In this episode of Sankofa Sessions, we dive deep into the real impact of democracy on the Black community—both in America and across the African diaspora. Has democracy truly delivered on its promise of freedom, equality, and progress for our people? Or has it simply reshaped old hierarchies in new, more sophisticated ways?
We unpack the historical and contemporary effects of democratic systems on Black empowerment, from voting rights and representation to economic opportunity and self-determination. We also debate whether alternative models—socialism, communalism, or Pan-African governance—might offer better paths toward equity and liberation.
Finally, we confront the hardest question of all: Is the system the problem—or are we, through complacency, internalized oppression, and lack of collective strategy, keeping ourselves stuck?
Tune in for a raw, unfiltered conversation that challenges assumptions and calls us to action.
Every conversation is a step toward collective liberation.
