We opened April 29 with a discussion of the NFL blackballing of outstanding Black quarterback Shedeur Sanders as another sign we cannot live with Caucasian people in peace.
Projected as a first round pick in the NFL draft, his stock fell after gripping from NFL sources who accused him of things like being entitled.
Despite having recording setting years at the University of Colorado, the young Black man languished while lesser players who were picked before. Is it hatred of his father, Hall of Famer Deion Sanders, who was his coach? Did Shedeur fail to genuflect enough to the White football powers that be? Why must Black folk grovel or disgrace themselves to get things they have earned? Listen Straight Words hosts Naba'a Richard Bj Murphy and our callers.
We also talked about the first 100 days of Trump 2.0, the chaos, the economic uncertainty and his in-the-toilet approval rating, the ugly division in the country and where does America go post Trump.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
