THE ROUND TABLE TALK SHOW — EPISODE 59 Title: Used, Needed, Denied
EPISODE THEME SUMMARYThis episode is not about asking the US who it used. This episode is not about pretending the labels they gave us, and we give ourselves, tell the whole truth. This episode is not about celebrating visibility while ignoring theft. This episode is about naming a pattern. A pattern where the American Negro Indigenous (Indigos, Moroccan, Maroons) Peoples of this land have been renamed, reclassified, worked, sold, studied, targeted, copied, marketed, voted on, voted for, and spiritually disrupted, while the systems feeding off that value still resist full repair, full inheritance, and full self-determination.When the US needed labor, it took our bodies.When it needed wealth, it took our lands, hands, and inventions.When it needed crops, railroads, ports, factories, and war support, it took our strength.When it needed rhythm, language, style, athleticism, entertainment, and cultural relevance, it took our genius.When it needed turnout, it came looking for our vote.When it needed consumers, it came looking for our dollar.When it needed to look moral, it borrowed our pain and our struggle for its message.When our people demanded land, protection, inheritance, credit, institutions, and lawful control over what we built?
