Pacific Savagez MC in Texas: How It Started

Be the Light: Choosing Positivity in a Negative World

In this short and reflective episode of the 7th Generation Podcast and Dr. B Teaches, Dr. B talks about something that has been on his mind more and more: the need to become a positive force in a world full of negativity, judgment, jealousy, hatefulness, and drama. From social media algorithms that reward outrage to everyday spaces where people tear each other down, it can feel like ugliness is everywhere. But this episode is about choosing something different. It is about choosing hope, choosing light, choosing encouragement, and choosing to bring good energy into the lives of the people around us. Dr. B reflects on the kind of person he wants to be at this stage of life: someone who uplifts, supports, teaches, coaches, and helps people believe in themselves. Being positive does not mean ignoring injustice or pretending life is easy. It means refusing to let bitterness, jealousy, and negativity control your spirit. This episode is a reminder that the world already has enough hate. We need more people willing to be medicine, more people willing to bring light, and more people willing to help others keep going. Be the opposite of the ugliness. Be a positive force.

Extractive Capitalism and the War on Indigenous Sacred Places

In this episode, I take a deeper look at the fight to protect Oak Flat and Chaco Canyon and what these struggles reveal about modern colonialism, extractive capitalism, and the continued assault on Indigenous sacred places. For Indigenous peoples, sacred places are not just historic sites or scenic landscapes. They are living places of ceremony, prayer, memory, identity, and connection. They are tied to ancestors, cultural survival, and spiritual responsibility. Yet again and again, Native communities are forced to defend these places from corporations and governments that see land only through the lens of extraction, profit, and control. I talk about why Oak Flat is sacred to Apache peoples, why Chaco Canyon remains deeply important to Pueblo peoples and other Indigenous communities, and why these struggles are part of a much larger fight over land, sovereignty, and the right of Native peoples to protect what is sacred. I also discuss the importance of Land Back, tribal sovereignty, and Indigenous stewardship. The truth is that Indigenous peoples are the original caretakers of these lands, and their ways of relating to the earth offer a very different vision from the greed-driven logic of western capitalism. This conversation is about more than two places. It is about what kind of world we want to live in. A world where everything is for sale, or a world where sacred places, Indigenous life, and the land itself are treated with respect. Support Apache Stronghold. Support the defense of Chaco Canyon. Stand with Indigenous peoples protecting sacred land across Turtle Island.

Pacific Savagez MC in Texas: How It Started

I sat down with Mike B in Texas and we got into the story of how Pacific Savagez MC got established in the state. This episode is about more than just expansion. It is about brotherhood, community, culture, and the work it takes to build something real in a new place. We talked about MC life, the vision behind the movement, what it took to bring it to Texas, and the kind of commitment it takes to stand on business and build with purpose. This was also a chance for me to catch up with the brothers, see how the build is going, and spend time with good people doing meaningful work. Texas showed love. Great state, solid people, and a lot of respect to the Savagez MC brothers who came out. I had a great time on this trip, and this conversation gives people a real look at the heart, effort, and community behind the movement.

Real Talk on Life, Recovery, and Protecting Your Peace

In this solo episode, I sit down and speak from the heart about some of the life lessons that have been hitting me hard lately. I talk about why keeping a tight circle matters, why you cannot follow the crowd if you want a meaningful life, and why sometimes doing things your own way is the only way to stay true to yourself. I also share where I am in my recovery from back surgery, what this season has been teaching me about pain, patience, and perspective, and how loss changes the way you see time. When you lose people you love, and when your own body forces you to slow down, you start thinking differently about who has access to you, what really matters, and how much time you actually have left to waste. This episode is also about dealing with haters, negativity, and the people who will always have something to say when you are trying to build, heal, grow, or move in a different direction. Not everybody will understand your path. Not everybody deserves a seat at your table. And not everybody is meant to go where you are going. This is a real conversation about staying focused, protecting your peace, learning from pain, and making sure you live your life on your own terms while you still can.

Indian Slavery, Colonial Violence, and the Southwest

This episode is a personal and historical reflection on Indian slavery in the Southwest, especially in New Mexico and Colorado, where many of my ancestors are from. While recovering from back surgery, I began digging deeper into my genealogy and uncovered something deeply painful: one of my ancestors was kidnapped and sold. That discovery led me further into the hidden history of Indigenous captivity, forced labor, colonial violence, and the systems that reshaped Native life in the Southwest. In this podcast, I discuss the history of Indian slavery in New Mexico, the meaning and limits of the colonial label genízaro, the Spanish caste system, the kidnapping of Indigenous people, and the brutal treatment of Indigenous women under colonial rule. I also reflect on my own shock at how much I still did not know, and why I feel called to keep learning, keep digging, and keep sharing this history. This is not the final word on the subject. It is the beginning of a deeper conversation. Too many people were never taught that Indigenous people in the Southwest were captured, sold, baptized, renamed, forced into labor, and folded into colonial society through violence. Too many families are still carrying the afterlife of that trauma without fully knowing the story behind it. I believe learning this history helps us better understand Indigenous pain, survival, resistance, and the long shadow of colonialism across generations. I’ll be returning to this topic in future episodes.
