Now What?

The Trump administration is finally coming to an end. On January 20, 2020, President-Elect Joe Biden will be installed as America’s 46th president. Unfortunately for our country, President Trump will leave behind a litany of lies, conspiracies, and lawsuits as well as the largest turnover of key administration personnel of any president in American history. Never has an American president encaged children and separated them from their parents, nor has a president claimed to have done more for blacks than any other president except possibly Abe Lincoln. It is too late now to dispute Trump’s lies and unsubstantiated claim what good would that do, so let us get on about the business of addressing the more import question of “What Now”?

Our podcast expert Dr. Marvin Dunn knows a thing or two about politics and we are sure you-our listening audience-would like to hear his views on where do we go from here?

What Does President Trump’s Battle with COVID 19 Mean for the Country,
Especially for the Black Community?

Should Blacks Take the Trump Vaccine?

These are very trying times. President Trump tested positive for the COVID-19 virus, more than 200,000 Americans have died from the virus under his leadership and to make matters worse his own medical advisors concluded that he was a COVID-19 super-spreader.  Many people are questioning his ability to lead the country, while others are asking to invoke the 25th amendment.  What does all of this mean for the world, our country, I cannot be certain, but lets’ turn to Dr. Dunn and Bryant for some answers on what it means for the black community.

Dr. Raymond Dunn uses Black historical events and movements from the past to see how far the needle has moved in the last 400 years since slavery.
