E7: Ancestral Courage With Dr. Melina Abdullah - Black Lives Matter

This episode was recorded a few days after the death of brother George Floyd. When I first connected to Dr. Melina, I hoped to discuss the lynching of Brother Nate Woods and the letter he wrote the night before he was executed for a crime he did not commit. After recording this, the world went through a reckoning that further reminds us to continue to stand for our Ummah. Stand With Black Lives Matter to keep black members of our Ummah from becoming the next hashtag. Dr. Melina Abdullah is one of the founding members of Black Lives Matter wearing many hats even transforming and inspiring college students as a Professor at CSULB. In this powerful interview, she shares how voice, body, and resources are three major areas of support the Black community needs. I removed the former episode today and uploaded this tonight after adjusting the audio for more clarity.Every Wednesday at 4PM on the Instagram account: instagram.com/blmlosangeles they share current news and needed support.
