"Would have come back maybe. Because they are, as you said, they have the talent and suddenly you can turn a game. But they lost the control of their minds and Switzerland used their experience. Shaka was in the middle of a big fight. I thought it would be almost red cardiac that it would have been stupid. These smart Nodal. It starts it all off, but then JDS gave just it gets yourself up the road and there a lot of people get pulled. I'm not sure he's that smart Stevie. I mean, previously he would have got sent off. Yeah, but you're talking about a lip I'm not changing his sports. And I know he's an always improved arsenal. He got involved in, I would say it was more the keeper to start with. But then you're through. You're an older player now. When the keeper of the big gate 6 foot 7 starts manhandling and all the other guys come in, walk away. He walked away and then he went back. And then he went back. He kept going back and by the way, when it was all said and done when he was walking back for the free kick to be taken, it was still mouth and awake. Even at the end of the game to adjust the bench. No, that can be a strong awful. That's the point. The point is, it could happen and it might mean if they get there, it guy just doesn't win. I mean, he's slightly better, but he's not alone. NATO, I thought that first half was one of the best first house that we'd seen this entire tournament. Yeah, it certainly was. It's a very, very enjoyable game. I think for me, like I had Swiss and coming out of the group. And the way that they've played throughout the three games, you can see certain parts of it, why they are. There will be rather a dangerous side in that next stage. And I think going up against the Serbian side who had to go and try and win the game. It made for an exciting clash. And I think as well, I think there were 7 yellow cards given to the serbians in the second half. So even though Shaka is winding people up, maybe when that particular battle, but I think the game ultimately went a little bit west for the serbians, the moment that third goal went in from Freud. And what a goal it was because of Serbia they knew they needed to score too, having to win a game four three is a tough position to be in our World Cup. But interestingly, for Serbia themselves, they finished bottom of the group as the top scorers, but unfortunately for them, they're also the team that's conceded in most of our goals. So they would have felt they were in with a chance, but ultimately they just didn't do enough through those three games. Do you have a fantastic vertebral column Switzerland with summer a Kenji Shaka? You have envelope up front. I mean, that's a hell of a vertebral column. And it's fine. It's fine. Thank you. And there was a real war. I think you can go very far with that kind of team and especially that spine. Because you can feel that we carry on top of it, bringing his experience that it can go far like this surprise France. In the last European Championship, because of that, they have everything a little bit of everything. I don't think they're going to win the World Cup. But I really think that they can trouble many many. They've got Portugal. There'll be an interesting classroom talk about that a bit later on. There was a scenario that Cameroon could have actually qualified today if they'd beaten Brazil two zero and several had got the equalizer. It would have been Cameroon who were then advanced. They'd be a Brazil reserve side by one goal to nil. Scoring later on, he'd already been booked, took his T-shirt off to the receive a second yellow. It was a friendliest red card. I think a number of the thing is, which is crazy.

"World of entertainment and athletics, you are somehow exempt from this other narrative that's been created to box a sense of these ideas and now we're seeing those myths dispel because we're taking on ownership of telling our own stories and as a father that was really important to me. Yeah. You know, we started out talking about love there and then we moved into just this notion of reclaiming the narrative. And it's interesting, you say, I'm not so interested in reclaiming a public narrative or collective narrative. But what I do have agency over is this story that I tell with the way that I live my life and the way that I give language and context and conversation around that and then turning around also and as you write sharing with your kids this matters and part of what we want to do is step into this space of freedom and agency and writing your own narrative and knowing that some of it may not go the way that we wanted or intended. And yet we are still the one with the pens in our hands. As much as society or even like another part of ourselves may want to try and rip it out at different moments in our history. Which at the end of the day, it feels like you're speaking to power. You know, you're saying there's a lot of power and there are a lot of power dynamics swirling all around us and there are lenses and expectations of who you are and aren't and who you should and shouldn't be in the world. But at the end of the day, you know, and we live in that context. We can't deny it. And it creates equality and inequality. And all sorts of vast and profound ways. But you're still sort of like looking at your son's and saying, but what's the story to the extent that you have control over it? That you want to claim and write. And don't let go of that pen. Absolutely. You know, I think, you know, it's so important for young men specifically in young boys and I mean, and this is inclusive of all boys. I'm a mentor to many. And you know, I realized that a lot of the harms in the world are rooted in the narrative that boys feel forced to live through. The way that we treat women, the way that we treat non binary conforming people, the way that we treat people who have a different race, different economical background. All of these things are rooted in narratives that boys have been handed down from society and their communities from time as long as we can remember. Some boys are raised with the idea that they have a right to all the things in the world, even if that means trampling on other people's humanity. And then there's others that feel as if they don't have a right to anything in the world without asking permission of people who have been hurtful and harmful to them. And so what I really wanted to get to through to this book and I think it comes through at nighttime when I'm doing affirmations with my youngest son say cool is the idea that you can create the most magical lived experience possible for you when you shape your own story and your identity of who you want to become. And the reason I started doing affirmations is because I knew that there was a story out there that he was going to encounter as he grows up that just isn't true. And I wanted to protect him from that. And then to empower him to recognize and acknowledge all the things when he see him, you know, that he can see that he's beautiful that he's funny that he's smart that he's thoughtful and kind and all these things and that that truly is a superpower to move through the world with the agency to choose how to show up for himself and other people. You write you're the ultimate author of your life and narrative and remember this too. When all about you feels lost in your imagination has run out of fuel. Don't forget that no story stays the same for long. You have agency. You can decide to turn the page. And built into those words is also this notion of resilience, you know, not every part of this story is going to go the way you want it to go. And it's planting the seed that I think is a lesson that so many of us eventually learn often from a place of surrender on our knees. You know, which is whether we deem something good or bad, it's this classic phrase this too shall pass and the question is like, how do we want to weather it in all the different ways? And if we believe that notion that in your words no storage stays the same for long. And we believe that we can then have some sense of agency and determining how it changes and how it shifts. Absolutely. That's a powerful message, a powerful place to be. Yeah, I mean, it's the beauty of living life, you know, you get a chance to see things change and evolve. And you know, I always just tell people you can internalize the beauty of the universe and you recognize the change of seasons you recognize the blossoming and the cane of flowers. You recognize the ebbs and flows of the ocean and you realize all those things exist within the side of you. Most of these spirits, the immensely. And when you tap into that, you truly tap into the power of the universe. And if you show up in that way, you can transform any space into be the most magical or destructive space imaginable or possible. Now, that feels like a great place for us to come full circle in our conversation as well. So in this container of good life project if I offer up the phrase to live a good life, what comes up? Smile a lot. You know, to live a good life smile a lot. You know, laughter to me is the greatest greatest antidote to anything. And despite the circumstances I came from, you know, one of the things that always remind people of that even in prison, we found a way to laugh. Thank you. Thank you so much for having me.

"Right? It's being present in the moment in the circumstance, but it's also being present in your own personal experience and your own emotion and your own thoughts. And this is something that you write about a lot of different ways. In your most recent book letter, the sons of society, it comes out in the form of one way that you talk about it in the context of love. You know, you write, I'm reading your words here. There's a checklist of things fathers are supposed to give their sons, things like clothing, shelter, and food. But there's one key thing missing from the list I've read. I need to give you high level access to your emotions as black men growing up in America, the narrative about us is so distorted. Talk to me about this because this is and just for a larger context, this book is a series of alternating letters to your two sons sharing these are things that I've learned. These are things that I feel are important. These are things that I want to pass on to you and also more broadly as a father knowing that within your two sons is embodied so much of the context of the greater relationship between fathers and sons and so much of the complexity and struggle. So I thought it was really interesting the way that you really you immediately call out, let's talk about love. Let's be present to this thing called love and also the expectation the public perception that tends to get wrapped around men and fathers and sons and love and how distorted that can sometimes be. And can we free ourselves from that? Absolutely. I think love is the greatest liberating to ever. And my goal is to leverage it more and to leverage the understanding of it for my sons so that they can navigate life unimpeded by narratives that really don't belong to them. You know, when I think of my life, you know, as a black man in America, I have experienced the extremes of what that looks like. You know, I've been in extreme poverty. I've been through the prison system. I've been boxed out of opportunities based on my past and things of that nature, but I've also been very successful and still I have to reconcile my blackness in the world of success. And one of the things that's really complex about American culture specifically is we just don't like the truth. We don't like to talk about the truth for some reason. It makes us uncomfortable. And me saying that my experience is unique to me, is not a threat to your experience. And it doesn't diminish your experience. And it doesn't eradicate the things that you experience as a human being, but to deny me the opportunity to speak to all of who I am. To me, that's the greatest form of precedent, so when I think about the narrative around black men and black fathers specifically, you know, I have to think about the broader context of the narrative around men in general. In that narrative is that we can be the providers. We can be to protectors and we can be the heroes. In those three things are our assignments as men, our assignments is dead and our assignments as sons who will one day grow up to be men and dads. And it's such an unfair narrative to box someone into because there's so many other precious things about life that are equally important and equally valuable. And that is the ability to love, the ability to show up with kindness, the ability to experience joy, and I think it's important for me as a man who has been through all these extremes of what it means to be masculine. What it means to be tough to really just speak to the thing that's the most fulfilling, which is when I'm showing up in love, I don't feel fulfilled when I have to protect. I actually feel scared. We don't talk about that protections come a lot of fear. You know, I don't feel joyful as a provider because that requires work. And I don't like to work all the time. So here's the reality of that, the things we're assigned, you know, they're not joyful events in our life. They're purposeful events. There are things that, you know, recharge within responsible for, but they're not always fulfilling. And so when I think about joy, and I think about love, what a great space to navigate as a fully evolved human being, and that's what I want my sons to understand is that you balance out the hard work life with the joy of lived life. And, you know, when I think about what's missing in the narrative, because there's always this thing about, you know, if you show up in black excellence, it'll change the narrative. I don't personally have a commitment to change in anybody's narrative. What I do want to do is expand the narrative to include all of who we are. And the depiction of black men right now is one of such as that we are America's problem to solve, we are black women's problems of and we're each other's problems solved and we're nobody's solution. And that couldn't be further from the truth. So what I try to do is expand the narrative to include all of the things. You know, there was at one point in my life where I was everybody's problem. Because I was my own problem. And it's because I was living through a very traumatic childhood and reacting based on those traumas. But I'm also been a solution to many. And so I think, you know, what if my life would have stopped at that one narrative, then we wouldn't have all the work that I've been able to accomplish over the last 12 years of freedom. And so what I try to just really express to my sons is that one, we're responsible for our own narrative. It's important for us to recognize and acknowledge all the things about us, you know, like, you know, when I think of growing up, the hero for me was always an athletics because that's been a role that's been assigned to black men in America..

"And I always wish I can go back and read those because I would send him letters and he would keep them, but also I would send home just like tons of letters to be stored and unfortunately they got lost in a flood, but you know, when I do read his letters, especially now, you know, I'll be 50 in June. And when I'm reading these letters, my dad is younger than I am now. And it's powerful, you know, is so deep and I have such a deep appreciation for what he chose to do, you know, he chose to step up and raise my oldest son due to my absence. You know, at a time where all his children were leaving the nest and he was close to being in a position to retire and he took on this great deal of responsibility and, you know, I really got to see this man go through everything, you know, the struggles and his marriage of the victories in his marriage, the struggles with my siblings, the triumphs with my siblings and, you know, all the things that men navigate typically silently, especially within our culture that doesn't really create space for men to be men and share their troops and be mostly evolved human beings. I was able to see all of that with my dad through those letters. Nah, I'm so powerful. What also becomes a regular letter writing process for you? I mean, for you, you also start to adopt a regular writing process. It grows into beyond writing to other people, but also starting to write your own thoughts starting to journal as this tool to sort of figure out. What is going on inside of me? Who am I? Who do I want to be and to become? And that becomes this central tool for your own internal processing and eventually external expression. It's interesting because you write about how that process has and continues to affect you and also in your book where you're literally writing letters to your two sons. You talk about the importance and the power of letter writing, which I thought was really interesting, because you touched on a bunch of different topics, which I want to dive into with you. But you were very intentionally to talk about this process of writing actual letters. And how it's so different. And you're somebody who when you actually, when you come out at 38, the world is profoundly different, right? You emerge from prison, and yet there's technology. There's Internet. There's all these things which have radically changed and made it so much easier and faster and digital to communicate. And yet there's something that remains so powerful to you about the written word about taking your hands and writing pen and paper that you want this tradition passed on to your kids and you want them to know how powerful it is. Yeah, I mean, you know, letters historically have been some of the most enlightening literary documents we've been fortunate enough to have. You know, I think about, you know, doctor king's letter from a Birmingham jail, you know, you think about, you know, whatever your religious belief is, I'm personally not religious, but very spiritual. But if you think about some of the grandest religious texts, you know, those are letters, you know, that are articulating what we should be thinking about, how we should think about love, how we should think about life, how we should think about our own personal Salvation and for me, you know, I actually wrote a letter last night to my son and put him in his lunch box and hopefully hopefully he eats his lunch today. He gets it. But, you know, the process of journaling, to me, I tell people all the time, that internal process of getting to know yourself is the greatest adventure that I believe human beings can ever go on. And it's one that I've been on for a long time and sitting with my own thoughts and processing my feelings and the way that I see the world and things that I'm reading and thinking about, you know, it's such a gorgeous gift to give to yourself. You know, this ability to travel inward and to really think about, what do I actually feel? You know, how does love fill in my body? How does it feel in my mind? How does it feel in my spirit? And I found that the only way I'm able to get that deep is through the written word, you know, I was recently asked, how do I write with such vulnerability and to me, vulnerability translates as honesty? You know, like this is my truth. This is my experience that I've processed and been able to walk through word about words since it's best sentenced paragraph by paragraph. And I think it's just that process, you know, that taking one step forward, no matter what the circumstances are. And I think the beauty of the written word and all this iterations, you know, is that ability to move us from one space to the next. And if you really think about it, writing shows up in almost everything that we do. Everything that we consume, you know, if you think about a TV show, the acting is based on the script. You know, you think about your favorite movie and those lines you remember. Somebody sat down and wrote that. You know, you think about your favorite song, there is composition notepads all over the world in studios everywhere where artists are sharing their most heartfelt feelings in a musical form, but it's all the written word. And it's those things that moves us through space and time and so to be able to be fortunate enough to recognize this gift that I was bequeathed to communicate through the written word is something that, you know, it's still brings me chills to this day when I think about what I've written or when I go back and read some of my earlier works and I'm like, wow, it's really, I'm just a vessel for, you know, these truths that I share. And what starts out, it sounds like for you as this way to really, to get what needs out out to process to exercise to integrate and synthesize and understand when you come out also then becomes a way to express yourself and a way to communicate in a way to tell your story in a way that isn't designed just to help you process. But to connect with others to stand in the role of advocacy and activism and to actually draw on the experience and to draw on your internal experience of transformation and share that with others and in part through the spoken word in part through being involved in a lot of different things, but also through the written word and form of books. And it's interesting because I think a lot of people when they hear your story would wonder, okay, so after this experience and you emerge and you're trying to figure out, okay, so who am I and how do I step back into this other world that I have been literally removed from for the better part of two decades that one of the big things that spins around is this notion of redemption and reconciliation. I think what you've shared is so much of that process had already been said in motion over a period of years while you were inside. And that's something that I would imagine. It's just going to continue for life. There's something that you speak about and that you write about that also seems to really have become the heartbeat of so much of the way that you move through the world, which is this notion of mindfulness. In fact, you sort of see that you can't think about things like redemption or reconciliation or anything else, really. Until you actually start to understand what it is to be present, what it is to be mindful. And I'm curious about how that emerges as such essential Tenet of the way that you step into your life. Yeah, that's a great question. You know, when I reflect on the stories that I shared, personal stories that come from my experience and that journal and process, one of the things that I realized is that as we grow through life, we are wholly dependent on other people to tell us who we were ten years ago, 20 years ago. At every family reunion, this story plays out no matter what the culture, gender, political affiliation, personal identity, everybody has a story of who you used to be. And sometimes those stories are similar, sometimes they're dissimilar, sometimes they're funny, sometimes they're sad, but it's other people's recounting of who you were at each period in your time. And what I love about the beauty of journaling is that you get a chance.

"When you get that first letter from the woman who's describing who this person whose life you took was on the planet, it sounds like it was devastating on so many levels. But in no small part because it forced you to grapple with that person's humanity. In a way where maybe up until that time and your role in taking it up until that time, you hadn't really seen who is on the other side of the gun in that way. Yeah, I think it really forced me to grapple not only with David's humanity, but also with my own humanity. And it really helped me to unpack that narrative that I had created from my own traumatic event. And one of the most amazing things about Nancy is Nancy had the wisdom to understand that I was a child making that decision. And that there were other elements that contextualized that evening, and I was resistant to that for a while. You know, I wouldn't tell her all of the details of what actually had happened that night. And I didn't want to tell her because I didn't want it to come across as if I was excusing the decision I made. But she pushed me on that. You know, she pushed me on that for years. We corresponded for several years. And she always would go back and ask me what happened to that 19 year old boy that would allow him to make such a decision. And the fact that she continued to frame it with the recognition that I was a boy, it was the most I've ever felt connected to my own humanity because I had lost empathy for myself or compassion. I thought of myself as a bad person and I had believed the narratives from my early childhood and from everything associated with the crime that night. And it was through years and years of being able to really unpack all of the things that really helped me see David's humanity and full display and to really understand my own humanity. And the thing about David's humanity is when you're convicted of a crime, you can't reach out to the family. The only way you can communicate with them is if they reach out to you first. Unfortunately, Nancy reached out to me and that began our journey, of correspondence. And during this same time, also, and I guess during, it sounds like really almost the entirety of 19 years at your incarcerated, you're also writing letters back and forth. It sounds like hundreds of letters with your dad, which it sounds like what ends up being communicated and shared. Process and hashed out through a series of countless letters over years and years and years. Also becomes a really big and meaningful part of your awakening to sort of like, what's the truth about who I am? What's the truth about who my pastor? What's the truth about the nature of my parents and their relationship and their relationship with me? And it sounds like that years long lettering letter writing process with your dad was also just so instrumental in your evolution. Yeah, my dad wrote me for the entire 19 years. I was incarcerated. And I remember when I first got arrested, I really had no expectations of how people would show up. That I had no knowledge of what that would look like. You know, I know a few people who have been incarcerated and who had got out of prison, but they had shorter time and typically, they didn't discuss that experience. You know, they kind of wanted to just go away. They wanted to move on with their lives. And it wasn't until I got out of prison that I understood why they reacted that way. But while I was inside, I remember getting the first letter from my dad, and him telling me that, you know, as sad as he is and as her as he is, but my circumstances that, you know, his plan and his purpose as my dad was to be there to support me through it all. And so we started corresponding and we were able to really unpack a lot of things. You know, one of the things I admire most about my dad is that, you know, he has been accountable for the times when he didn't show up. He's been accountable for the times where he showed up in ways that were less than stellar. And that ability to be honest to be vulnerable to be real, like it really built a bridge between us. It really helped us to grow together. And you know, I was able to challenge him, you know what I was able to discuss things with him that I had never talked to him about in my life. And we were able to laugh together through that as we were able to cry together. We were able to really get to understand each other as men, especially as I began to grow up in prison, you know, when I went in, I was a teenage boy when I left I was a 38 year old man. And so for the course of that time, my dad got a chance to see me evolve into a man, you know, he saw me at my angriest. He saw me at my most heartbroken, but he also was able to see me as I began to grow and become more hopeful when it become more intentional about what I wanted out of this thing we call life. And you know, his letters are truly treasured gifts that I still have, some of them to this day, unfortunately I lost tons of them because of a flood at his basement..

"She forgave me. And not only does she forgive me, but that she loved me. And it took years for me to really embrace the fullness of that letter. So it was incremental. And then finally, while I was in solitary confinement on a four and a half year will turn out to be four and a half years straight, I got a letter from oldest son Jay and in that letter J told me that his mom told him why I was in prison. And he said to me, dad, my mom told me you're in prison for murder. Don't kill Jesus watches what you do. And that letter really kind of the rest of the facade of hood toughness and prison savvy and anger and distrust that I had used to mask this vulnerable boy that was still inside of me. And in that letter, you know, I found what I knew was my responsibility, which was I owed my son a father. And I owe them a father that he can be proud of, despite my circumstances, and I owed him the responsibility of showing him that no matter what you go through in life, if you are willing to give yourself a chance, you can turn things around. And that's what that letter inspired me to do. Yeah. So it was really, it was a series of events. You know, in that letter, sort of like came after them, goodbye project is supported by a frame rate. So.

"When I was shot, my sisters and my Friends, they called avalanche and the amber lands never came. And so instead, a friend of mine put me in his car and he drove me to the hospital as he coached me on how to stimulate the flow of blood, how to navigate the pain I was feeling. And he was able to do that because he had got shot the year prior when he was 18. And when I got to the hospital, they rushed me in, they extracted one of the bullets from my legs, they patched that leg up. They left a bullet inside. And within two days, I was back in my neighborhood and during that whole ordeal, no one came and said to me that this event is traumatic event is going to forever change how you see and experience life. Not one doctor, not one nurse, not one social worker, psychologist or psychiatrist, thought to say, here's a 17 year old kid, laying in the bed, probably terrifying, and no one thought to just say, hey, this is an isolated incident. It shouldn't have happened. And so what I went back to my neighborhood with was this very volatile recipe. I was angry, I was confused. I was hurt. I didn't know that I could even ask for help because I had an experience that. You know, my friend who had got shot the year prior, he never talked about how he processed those feelings. I only was able to witness what he did. My brother who had been shot a year or so prior, I was only able to witness what they did, which was to arm themselves and I remember at that point that I started to carry a gun every day. But what was worse than carrying the gun really was the narrative and the story I began to tell myself. And that story was that I will never allow anyone to harm me again, and if I find myself in conflict, I will shoot first. In 16 months later, I shot and tragically caused the man's death and was subsequently arrested, charged with open murder and sentenced to 17 to 40 years in prison and my arrest happened one month after my 19th birthday. And when I went into prison, I found myself angry, I really was very resentful, I begin to blame everybody I blame my parents or blame the school system, or blame the hospitals, and that led to me getting into tons of trouble. I was in and out of solitary confinement, and I eventually served a total of 19 years with 7 of those years being in solitary confinement. Yeah, I mean, being in that environment, you know, would so often can reinforce this notion of you'd be able a certain way because you need to stay alive and there are certain rules that you need to follow and there are certain alliances and affiliations that you create in order to feel as safe as you can. And you're in there. And as you said, there's a lot that went on. Over those 19 years in the early days, it sounds like you were sort of you were working the system the way that you believed it to be. But at some point, and you spent a chunk of time, like a total of about 7 years in solitary, four of those from what I understand consecutive where you were like in there away from human beings. And as we have this conversation and we're going to go a lot into sort of what unfolded in your mind. During that time and also since that time, but when you're in there, it sounds like there was this one pivotal experience that kind of changed everything and it was a moment that you receive a letter. From your son, that somehow flipped a switch for you that up until that moment in time, everything that you'd been through didn't get you there. Yeah, I want to frame it a little bit differently. It wasn't one moment. It was the most pivotal moment. And you know, for the sake of the audience, I really want them to understand that prison is very barbaric. It's very inhumane and it's very psychologically traumatizing. And you can double that when you think about children walking into prison. And at 19 years old, I was still a child. And I went to a prison called the mystery reformatory in the actual nickname for that prison was gladiator school. Because the levels of violence that was either encouraged by the guards or that were circumstance of just hurt young boys turning on each other, that was the environment. That was the setting. In early on, I had to decide whether to be a lion or a laminate environment. But also what happened, you know, leading up to that big pivotal moment where, you know, two of the three, what I now call miracles. In the first was I met an encounter some incredible men who were serving life sentences who by default became some of the best mentors I've ever had. And I say that because they were the man who guided me to books. And they guided me to the power of literature and reading. And I was really fortunate to be literate, the average reading grade level in prison is third grade. So I was at an advantage that a lot of the men and women in that environment just unfortunately don't have. And that's the ability to read. And then the second miracle was receiving a letter of forgiveness from a woman named Nancy, who had raised the men, David, whose life I was responsible for taking. And that letter, she shared with me who David was, the father he was, the man he was the friend, the son, and it was devastating to read her accounts of who David was. And I honestly wanted to just ball that letter up and throw it away because I didn't want to come face to face with this horrible, horrible moment that I was responsible for. But I continue to read that letter and I read it multiple times over the course of years, and then that letter, she said, you know, despite the pain I've caused,.

"Brokers, members, SIPC. Just so curious about so many different moments in your life. And I really want to dive into some of the ideas that you have been working with and sharing over the years now. Let's take a little bit of a step back in time because there's a lot that set up the moment that you've come to in your life and the ideas that you've been working with in the creative things that you have been exploring. I know you describe yourself. You grew up in Detroit as a curious and precocious kid. Yeah. Yeah, you know, when I reflect back on my childhood, I think about all these random things and a lot of times we're really sparks that is when I'm watching jeopardy in some random, you know, answer comes up. You got to figure out what is the question. And I realized I know tons of weird things. And it came out of my experience as a child where I would just randomly read encyclopedia. And just learn different facts and learn about different spaces and places and people and I think that's been one of the things that's been consistent throughout my life no matter what I've gone through is I've always been curious about how does the world work, how do people experience life? What are some of the things that show up in life that we're often just take for granted and that curiosity, I think, has allowed me to navigate many things in my life, you know, the traumatic past, experiences that I've gone through, and unexpected successes that I've been able to achieve, post incarceration. Yeah, I'm curious, when you show up as a kid, so interested in the broader human condition, you know, I've had conversations with folks who have a kind of similarly wired and they have shared how on the one hand, it gave them all sorts of different worlds to explore that maybe their friends or people around them weren't all that interested in exploring. But on the other hand, it could also feel somewhat isolating because it made them feel different. I'm curious whether you experience anything like that. That's really interesting. I think I've always felt a little bit different. And I think part of it was the dynamics of the household that I grew up in. So my dad, who was definitely one of my heroes, and a very interesting and evolved human being in many ways, you know, when he met my mom, he was fresh out of the air force. He was about 21 years old. And my mom was a teenage mother with three children. And my dad took on that responsibility and then they had me and then, you know, subsequently my two younger sisters. So I grew up with my older siblings who had a very different experience. You know, they were navigating childhood with two dads. They had their biological dad and then they had my dad who was raising them. And, you know, they would go back and forth between Detroit and Chicago. And as a kid growing up, when my brother would describe Chicago, it was like otherworldly, you know, it was like he was describing a space that seems so far away from where we were growing up in Detroit. And I think that was probably the earlier parts of me feeling a little isolated because my three older siblings had something that they shared that was different from what we were experiencing together. And then, you know, as I got into school and I was an early reader, I learned how to read very early on. I remember my parents dragging me out of the bed to come and read for my aunts and uncle after they've had a little night of partying and fun and kind of like the things that adults do with children. And you know, of course me being a child, I didn't know that this was unique or this was special at the time, but once I got into school and, you know, I would get done with my homework. I mean, my school worked very fast, and then, you know, the teachers would send me off on these little kind of adventures, you know, to go help the teachers or give me more challenging works to read. And I think that really just kind of set the tone for ultimately how I began to navigate life as just young person who had a lot of internal conversations going on while trying to navigate the world outside of me. Yeah. And I know at the same time, you've also described those early days as, you know, you're this fiercely intellectually curious kid about the world. And then you're given opportunities to learn and to read and just really immerse yourself in those landscapes. At the same time, there was a lot of abuse within the household. And that was another layer that you had to figure out how to navigate. Yeah, and I think that abuse really contributed to me kind of turning inward. And, you know, as a kid growing up in a household where I experienced physical abuse, but also witnessed my older siblings, you know, experiencing that physical abuse and, you know, most of the time at the hands of my mother, like I would turn inside, you know, inward and just try to figure out, why is this happening? And what is it about me that makes her treatment this way? And what is it about my siblings, and then, you know, to take all of that energy and have to go out and embark on the world of school and, you know, trying to play as a kid, but being haunted by these experiences and not feeling short and confident, externally because you just never know when something was going to happen. And so that really, I think, led to me being more introspective. More thoughtful about how I engage with other people..

"I think love is the greatest liberating to ever. And my goal is to leverage it more and to leverage the understanding of it for my sons so that they can navigate life unimpeded by narratives that really don't belong to them. So I've always been kind of fascinated by the idea of snap decisions or these things that happen just a moment. How some can lead to amazing outcomes and others can literally destroy lives in the blink of an eye. And what you so often find is that nothing actually ever happens in a moment. There is no real snap, but rather a series of experiences leading up to it. Often years in the making where they're as much the authors of the moment as the instance itself. And sometimes, when those moments lead to something you regret for a lifetime, then you get to the next question. What is recoverable? Redeemable. How do you make that happen? And who gets to write the story of your own reclamation? This is the powerful subtext of my conversation with Shaka sengor, New York Times bestselling author of writing my wrongs, life, death, and redemption in an American prison. A leading voice on criminal justice reform, tech investor, head of diversity, equality, and inclusion at trip actions. Former MIT Media Lab director's fellow and member of Oprah Winfrey's super soul 100. He took another young man's life at the age of 19, served the next two decades almost in prison. 7 in solitary. And through a series of unexpected awakenings began to unwind the pieces of his life and begin the process of understanding and reassembling and eventually redemption and reclamation. In the decades since his release from prison, he has started and worked with nonprofits seeking to lift people up, visited The White House been interviewed by Trevor Noah on Oprah Winfrey and given award winning TED Talks all with the goal of building a more inspired, just and fulfilling future for all. So excited to share this conversation with you. I'm Jonathan fields and this is good life project.

So Michael, he ventures into the depths of the sea, meeting an oceanographer who has saved countless lives, but the survivors don't even know his name.

That has been a complaint about arsenal for years now, not just a season, not just a but for years. I thought you saw the best side of arsenal in that respect in the second half against booze, but I'm still leaning in second half against wolves, but I'm still leaning spooge just. All right, yeah, so yeah, as I mentioned, united and arsenal, however, our favorites to finish in the top four. What do you think of that?

There's always typical Tottenham game and that is and it's not typical of them to get into the top four. I can't see that happening. And when Manchester's united, sometimes you think they need to get top four with this team somehow they will find a way, but then you never know which team there are and when you see the games there are two different halves and I want to say that it is on Twitter and social.

Finding the Judas in Judas and the Black Messiah
"The 19 sixties, Fred Hampton was chairman of the Illinois Black Panther Party. He was a rising leader, organizing disparate multi racial groups in Chicago. Until police shot and killed him and another Black Panther member in an early morning raid. There's a new movie about Fred Hampton out this week, it is called Judas and the Black Messiah. It's not a question of ball. It's a non violence is a question of resistance to fascism or non existence within fascism Film got rave reviews after its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival last week. It's the second feature from director Shaka King who, until this project came along, was on the verge of giving up making feature films altogether. MPR's Andrew Lyne bonked takes it from here. Yes, Judas and the Black Messiah is about Fred Hampton and how he led the Black Panthers in Chicago. But it's also about William O'Neill, the man who infiltrated the Black Panthers in spied on Hampton on behalf of the FBI. Shaka King told me that the Lucas Brothers who co wrote the story, sold the idea to him like this. Their pitch that they laid out was we want to make a movie about Fred Hampton and William O'Neal. That's kind of like the departed the 2006 Martin Scorsese movie Inside the World of Cointelpro, or Counterintelligence program, the 19 sixties project where the FBI infiltrated and disrupted groups like the Black Panthers, and I was like I see it. I'm done. I'm in Judas is a tight, intense movie. Yes, like the departed and other Scorsese type crime movies. It's a long way, though, from King's first feature film newly weeds from 2013. So what you got here? Newly weeds tells the story of a young couple in Brooklyn who smoke a lot of weed where Judas is loud and fast. Really? Weeds is quiet and tender. I'm done. I'm done online. Won't want Wanna hang out. We hang up. Yeah. How are we supposed to go to the Galapagos? If you mind the bag every two minutes. It hits similar beats as movies by other indie darling directors like Joe Swanberg or the Duplass Brothers. The film Independent Spirit Awards even gave King the Someone to watch award after it came out, which came with a $25,000 grant. Not bad for someone fresh out of N Y. U film school. But after that initial fanfare, I was so depressed after making newly weeds and my expectations for the release just not coming to fruition. The movie didn't get much attention outside the festival circuit from agents and distributors, largely because it was a movie with black actors who no one knew on at that time that was deemed worthless. The film's release in 2013 wasn't that long ago, but it was just before what a friend of Kings jokingly dubbed. The Black Excellence Industrial Complex. You're Selma's and Moon Lights and Black Panthers when movie studios realized they could make a lot of money by releasing films by and starring black people. Nearly weeds. Loss of momentum burnt king out on the idea of making another feature film, But he did have an idea for a short rolling around in his head. It was kind of silly kind of outrageous, sweetheart. Lips. Excuse me, miss. It's called Moon Yang's after the Italian slur for black people want heard on the streets of Brooklyn in it, King and two others play these three black guys who talk like they're in the mom movies. King has such a fondness for It was somewhat inspired by King's experience growing up in a mostly black part of Brooklyn, but going to high school in South Brooklyn, where everyone the Irish Americans, Greek Americans, Asian Americans, Jewish Americans, all talks like the Italian American kids, and those kids were Hilarious. They were profane. They were quick witted, and we were not friends put like I could appreciate their sense of humor. The movie is a concise examination of race, gender gentrification. As King's character gets into an argument with his sister over a MetroCard, you did not have a dime. Put 1000 until the white guy comes by and says hi to the sister. Hi. How you doing? How are you? You guys just don't know what both outta here. Oh, Polluted the movie is fun and poignant, and the process reminded King how much he loved making movies. That movie saved me. You saved me. I didn't see that or know that about Shaka. But I could understand, and I could see how that could happen. Charles de King, no relation to director Shocking is the CEO and founder of Macro which since its founding in 2015 has produced movies and TV shows featuring non white people, including Judas and the Black Messiah. It was before the oscarssowhite moment. Of 2015. There's a lot that's happened since then. There is much more of an openness and I think an understanding of the business opportunity there. Which brings us to King today, making a movie about an anti capitalist black radical at a very capitalist Hollywood studio without watering down the politics. The deal is to respect the authenticity. Fred Hampton Jr is the current chairman of the Black Panther Party, Cubs and son of Fred Hampton. He says he and the other Panthers had their guards up when they were approached about this film. The Panthers have long been subjected to propaganda campaigns and misrepresentations. But he says King and the rest of the cast and crew definitely navigated the crossroads between their creative goals and the Panthers. Political ones. Well enough, anyway. Revolutionaries never satisfied. You know, I wish there was more political cartoon. We could've pushed. In a certain point, However, I'll put the people's need before before my needs my wants and desires. For instance, the relationship between Fred Hampton and his partner, Deborah Johnson, was a tricky thing to get right. The poet.

"Shaka Smart was gone dead and buried with Texas. But he's really reimbursed himself as the coach and maybe the longtime coach for the basketball program. He found the guys and that's something that It's different in college basketball than it is in football. And, yeah, it takes one or two guys, just a couple guys and one season to really turn your career and your program around and This Texas team is They're feisty. I'd say they're feisty, And I think a lot of people after the Kansas game when Texas defeated the Kansas and Lawrence by 25 points, a lot of people thought maybe that's a fluke. Maybe Kansas she was just having a bad day, but Texas coming back after that beating I was state in Austin and then going to West Virginia and winning That was no fluke in Kansas. What we saw was the real deal in Texas needs to get the respect Now, obviously, you know, they still have lots of proof because Texas hasn't done diddly. In 25 years. Basically, we're really not that long. So it's the final Four in 2004 sets of finally got really anything besides that, which is 17 years 17 years ago s O Texas a little lots of proof, But this team Potentially could be the Texas team that puts this passable program bathroom back on the map. And how ironic it is in this covert year when we're not allowed to go to the Irwins Center. No, no fans the last home game. I'm not sure if they're gonna loud for the tech game. How ironic that nobody could go see this great team. And also they announced the early last week about the NC double a tournament being played in Indianapolis in the area over us A few air few gm's That's where it's all going to be played there. I'm still trying to wrap my arms around how they're going to play that with all the 68 teams there. I don't know how they say it helps the teams with younger, younger players. Helps the nerves. It was kind of like how in the NBA playoffs last season You saw a lot of these younger team shine because these younger players didn't have They didn't have the ants and they didn't have the stage fright in front of a large crowd. And before I take it, I'm not gonna I'm not gonna attribute this to the game, but Texas going to Kansas if it had been a full crowd. Oh, yeah, Lawrence. It would've been a different story. There has that little bit. That crowd can really swing momentum, but it didn't Um, it's funny. You mentioned the crowd at Frank Erwin Center, because, remember last you were ready game. I think it was the tech game top and it was a horrible craft in Texas. Now, many people showed up. It was more Texas Tech fans and the Texas Tech crowd was loud. Unbelievably loud. Yes. So apparent how much more support Texas Tech had can imagine The crowds to these Texas games next few weeks would have been like like they would have. I think that I don't I don't know.
