This week we have seen Trump downplay his Covid-19 diagnosis claiming he is immune, a militia's planned attempt to kidnap the Governor of Michigan, the release of bodycam footage of one of the officers involved with the murder of Breonna Taylor.

What are your thoughts on the newly released bodycam footage from Breonna Taylor's case? Do we have faith in our justice system even though we see racism in its process?

Ownership Or Equality? With Joe Budden recently announcing that he’s ending his contract with Spotify for his number 1 rated podcast, the internet immediately started buzzing. After a response from Breakfast Club host Charlamagne The God that Joe needs to negotiate better, fans began to take sides. Given Charlamagne The God’s recent announcement of a partnership for a podcast network on iHeart radio, the question now comes up of having a seat at the table vs building your own. Are both aspects correct? Should black people in America be more concerned with building their own table, or getting an equity stake at someone else’s? What’s an acceptable amount of ownership that a creator is willing to part with? With podcasts being larger than ever before, should black podcasters continue a path of independence, or seek network deals?

They have to look a certain way, possess certain personality traits, and have ambition about themselves. This causes some women to have issues of insecurity.

How does having a good mother/son relationship vs a good father/son relationship help secure a man's self-esteem? Are men who make less money than their women feel insecure?

The Future of Black Media From the Chicago Defender leading the great migration from the south to the Alabama State University campus newspaper spreading the word of the Montgomery Bus Boycott, Black Media has always been at the forefront of every major movement for Black people in America. Over recent years, we’ve seen a heavy divestment from advertisers and consumers in Black Media. Generational publications like Ebony & JET Magazine have disappeared from the spotlight. Where do we go from here? Is Black Media relevant in today’s society? How can we put pressure on companies to advertise with Black Media? What accountability do we as consumers have to finance Black Media? What is the future of how people consume Black Media?

"We can't have war between Black men and Black Women, because no one can be free if one half of the mind of the people is tied up in conflict. It's going to have to be both of us or none of us."

No backstabbing, actions of jealously, etc.) Should we as black people demand more positive images of the Black unit (Man and Woman) in media? and how can we achieve this? How can we change the perception of Black women feeling unprotected by Black men in today's hostile climate toward Black women? We all know the statistically black men and women make less than our white counterparts, but how can we ensure the finances we do have really generate wealth? Joint bank accounts, separate, or both? (Before and after married) What steps do we need to take to show the next generation that a relationship between a Black man and Woman is a worth maintaining for a healthy community?

Thanks for tuning in to the Middle Men Talk Show Today. Historically Black Colleges and Universities are institutions founded before the Civil Rights Act of 1964 serving primarily African American students. They allowed our ancestors, grandparents, parents, and so on the opportunity to attend higher education when most predominantly white institutions did not allow the enrollment of African Americans. Currently, there are over 100 HBCUs today. In today’s integrated society, is the HBCU still relevant to black culture? With limited federal funding and alumni financial support, can HBCUs compete with predominantly white institutions for research grants and too academic and athletic prospects? How can HBCUs survive in the future, and what impact can a youth social justice movement have on them? What are some ways HBCUs can continue to increase their connectedness with the black community? Will there be an increase in enrollment in HBCUs and also will we see an increase of top athletes attending? How can others who attended PWI’s help support HBCUs?
On the Middle Men Talk Show tonight we will be discussing: Allies or All Lies? There have been times throughout history where racism against people of color could have been stopped. Is this movement of change happening or is it just another moment in history? Is it just a “Moment” for how some white people are coming to support? or is it just generational need to be in vogue? Are they an ally or all lies? Is Corporate America's stance on Black Live matter a true stance? or just a strategy to keep future income flowing. Have the infiltrators of the riots damaged the movement with their senseless acts of domestic terrorism? What type of policies can be put in place it insure change in America? Other nations are protesting the murder of George Flloyd, will these protests enact a change on a global scale for people of color? on a global scale, which nations are truly an ally of African Americans? In America, we still face the weaponizing of the police by some. Where do this Karen and big boss steve mentality stem really from? Is this mentality of superiority a mentality of inferiority? What discussions should we continue to have with our children about these issues?

How can we get the proper people elected who support the people? What are resources we can own to help increase wealth? Regarding Black ownership, how can we get more resources amongst ourselves?
