Do you feel seen or heard
0:02
when you watch the news? You mean,
0:04
like good news wasn't really for me
0:07
exactly. You
0:10
know, it's interesting thing when black people gather. If
0:12
I were to say to y'all, right now, God is good,
0:14
you would say all the time. If I said all
0:16
the time, you would say God is good. Absolutely.
0:19
We speak a language that you can't even learn through osmosis.
0:21
So when we gather and we talk to each other about
0:24
each other, for each other, it's a different vibe.
0:26
It's authenticity on a different level. I'm
0:30
Major Gillham, former mayor in Florida
0:32
and former Democratic nominee for governor
0:34
of Florida. What's up, everybody. I'm Tiffany Cross.
0:36
I am a journalist, television host.
0:39
I am angela raie politics
0:41
and culture commentator. This is a place
0:43
where we can welcome you home because
0:45
at Native Lampids, we are creating
0:48
a native land o. The news is made
0:50
for the comfort of white people. The
0:52
news media has always made me feel grossly
0:54
unwelcome my entire career. I
0:57
have felt homeless. I get this feeling
0:59
watching the news. One day, I did like a marathon
1:02
chaw. I got it. I said, well, I feel dirty the
1:07
titling of the show Native Land
1:09
is a reclamation of this space
1:12
as ours, not being
1:14
curated by anyone else other than ourselves.
1:17
Yes, I was exhausted with having
1:19
the fight even to talk about issues that were significant
1:22
to millions of people across this country. We can
1:24
skip past all that and just get to conversations
1:26
of substance, but also to keep it abuck,
1:29
conversations of some foolishness too. You know, we
1:31
have a good time with each other. We're
1:35
talking about the real things that really matter
1:38
with real folks. All that. Welcome
1:41
home, y'all. Welcome home. Listen
1:44
to Native Land pod, dropping every Thursday
1:47
starting January eleventh on the iHeartRadio
1:49
app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you
1:51
get your podcasts.
