I start with Kudos for Michelle Obama for her speech in Chicago. After that, I have very harsh words for President Obama, his association with Jay-Z and the message it continues to send. This was avoidable but inevitable when one aligns oneself with the ilk of Jay-Z.

Also, be sure to listen to my hour-long conversation with Academy Award-winner Lou Gossett Jr. and how he details our separation from God and family have been the chief reasons why we as African-Americans are where we are. Powerful words. Pay close attention.
