Speaker 1 (00:00):
Do you feel seen or heard when you watch the news?

Speaker 2 (00:04):
You mean, like good news wasn't really for me exactly.

Speaker 1 (00:10):
You know, it's an interesting thing when black people gather.
If I were to say to y'all, right now, God
is good, you would say all the time. If I
said all the time, you would say.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
God is good.

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Absolutely. We speak a language that you can't even learn
through osmosis. So when we gather and we talk to
each other about each other, for each other, it's a
different vibe. It's authenticity on a different level.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
I'm Madre Gillham, former mayor in Florida and former Democratic
nominee for governor of Florida.

Speaker 1 (00:35):
What's up, everybody. I'm Tiffany Cross. I am a journalist,
television host.

Speaker 3 (00:38):
I am angela raie politics and culture commentator. This is
a place where we can welcome you home because at
Native Lampids, we.

Speaker 1 (00:47):
Are creating a native land o. The news is made
for the comfort of white people. The news media has
always made me feel grossly unwelcome my entire career. I
have felt homeless.

Speaker 3 (00:58):
I get this feeling watching the news too. One day
I did like a marathon chaw. I got it. I said, well,
I feel dirty.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
The titling of this show native Land is a reclamation
of this space as ours, not being curated by anyone
else other than ourselves.

Speaker 1 (01:17):
Yes, I was exhausted with having the fight even to
talk about issues that were significant to millions of people
across this country. We can skip past all that and
just get to conversations of substance, but also to keep
it a buck, conversations of some foolishness too. You know,
we have a good time with each other.

Speaker 3 (01:35):
We're talking about the real things that really matter with
real folks. All that.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
