Description
I'll be honest, I didn't even want to have this talk. I was talked out and I was tired of having to fixate on the violent deaths of our people. That said, it actually ended up being really good for all of us. We had the homie Anthony Walker join us to process everything we've been feeling and dealing over the last few weeks since the murder of George Floyd was posted for the world to see.
