Good Morning, Fam'!
I was born in 1965 the exact same year the Voting Rights Act was passed. Watching Wednesday's Supreme Court decision attack that very act 61 years later is another massive wake up call. These people have not changed. We are approaching the 2026 mid terms and we have to do the heavy lifting before 2028. When I coached the Nike EYBL circuit's Boo Williams girls basketball team I always taught my post players a core lesson. You have to do your work early in the paint. If the initial move is not there you do not panic. You repost and finish strong through contact and get the and1. The reality is many in our community did not do the work early. The defense pushed us off our spot. Now it is time to repost, finish through contact and get the and1, we have the numbers!
This is not only about voting. This is also about absolute intentionality. We must band closer together and aggressively support Black owned businesses and local entrepreneurs in our neighborhoods. We have to cut out the noise stop falling for their talking points, disinformation and build our own institutions. We are using artificial intelligence as a tool to structure these survival philosophies into concrete sovereignty protocols.
