We’re faced with choices every day. Most are trivial and underwhelming to the point we don’t realize they’re even choices at all. Getting gas, whether or not to order take out, or the ever infamous quandary: “should I go to the gym?” There does, however, come those times when we’re forced to make more profound decisions…the type that could very well alter the trajectory of our future. We sat down for an interview with artist, public speaker, educator, and activist Blackliq. While he has achieved much in the entertainment space, his music was not the main topic of discussion. Instead, he told us exclusively and for the 1st time publicly, about the day a homicide detective showed up at his work back in 2004, informing him that his father was being charged with 1st degree murder. Written by Michael Dunphy Jr., Executive Produced by Michael Ojibway. Special thanks to Blackliq.   This Episode is Proudly Sponsored By:  Gladskin: Gently restore the bacterial balance of your skin with Gladskin’s Micreobalance® formula.
