episode 2 - voices of jewels with legend panda ross

"Most people know Panda Ross from her unforgettable  audition on The X-Factor USA’s 2012 season, where she brought the house  down with her rendition of Sam Cooke’s “Bring It on Home to Me.”  The soulful diva charmed America with her larger than life personality and  her “single” necklace, worn for her long time crush Simon Cowell. Panda did the entire performance battling pneumonia. Her audition has received more than 12 million views on YouTube. America was in love." so happy to join my boo, panda ross, to chat about her dream of opening her own music recording studio in dallas, tx. right now, we are raising money via gofundme (link below) for those of you who would be able to contribute financially. if you're in the dallas area and interested in volunteering your time in any way, feel free to reach out to her directly. so proud of my friend and happy to support her dream of helping others pursue theirs. as we all support black owned businesses, please consider extending that support to my wonderful friend, panda ross.  support - donate: https://gf.me/u/x9ab6x [https://gf.me/u/x9ab6x] official website: www.pandaross.com [//www.pandaross.com] testimony: https://youtu.be/JCLc3Om67l4 [https://youtu.be/JCLc3Om67l4] usa xfactor audtion: https://youtu.be/UG0cNv_Kink [https://youtu.be/UG0cNv_Kink] uk xfactor audition: https://youtu.be/YD4KQ_AJpbU [https://youtu.be/YD4KQ_AJpbU]

say their names #blm

We mourn the loss of all those whose lives ended as a result of senseless brutality.  We must use our platform to protest the death of these people: George Floyd Eric Harris Breonna Taylor Ahmaud Arbery Ezell Ford Alton Sterling Sean Bell Trayvon Martin Akai Gurley Eric Garner Terence Crutcher Tamir Rice Mike Brown Freddie Gray Alayna Stanley-Jones Philando Castille Rekia Boyd James Clark Walter Scott Korryn Gaines Sandra Bland Elisha Stanley Kimani Gray Sam Dubose Phillip White Dontrae Hamilton and all the others whose deaths have been kept silent. Black Lives Matter, today and every day. We stand in solidarity with Black communities as we again find ourselves anguished, angered, and compelled to action in response to the murders of George Floyd and Black people across the United States by police. Unless and until white America is willing to collectively acknowledge its privilege, take responsibility for its past and the impact it has on the present, and commit to creating a future steeped in justice, the list of names that George Floyd has been added to will never end. Please take this time to observe a moment of silence and respect for 8 minutes and 46 seconds, in honor of George Floyd, and all the others who should still be here with us today. Thank you. Black Lives Matter.

episode 1 - let's build

In today's podcast, I start a conversation with Corey (COO)and Dez (CIO) from The Bridge Harrisburg. We talk about The Bridge, an eco-village, and what that means. We talk a lot about community and empowerment and the importance of both. Not only the importance of these themes, but how necessary they are during this current climate.. and how we can contribute, regardless of race. Our voices need to be heard and I am so grateful for our conversation today and so proud of what The Bridge is creating for a community by my very own hometown.  Learn more about The Bridge and how you can contribute: Subscribe - www.thebridge.com Merch - www.thebridgemerch.com Donation - https://pledgeit.org/the-bridge Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/TheBridgeHBG/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thebridgehbg/
