The tragic killing of Dallas rapper Lil Ronnie and his 5-year-old daughter in a gang-related shooting is another painful reminder of the toxic street culture plaguing Black America. Every day, 22 Black lives are lost to violence, yet we continue making excuses. Meanwhile, NBA superstar Anthony Edwards has chosen to walk away from his own child, opting out of fatherhood. We say fatherlessness is a crisis, yet we celebrate athletes and entertainers who abandon their kids. How can we fix a culture that refuses to hold itself accountable?


In this episode of Broken Traditions, we dive into the deep-rooted problems of gang violence, absent fathers, and the excuses we keep making for destructive behavior in our communities. It's time to break away from these toxic cycles and take responsibility for our future.
