Men of Courage Podcast

In part two of our enlightening conversation with Andrew Young, we meet up with the legendary Co-Founder of Disturbing tha Peace Records, Chaka Zulu. The Civil Rights movement and Atlanta Hip Hop history collide as the men get personal and discuss self-care, self-applied stress, and facing death without fear.

This week we’re in Atlanta with Civil Rights icon, former Atlanta Mayor, and wing man to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Andrew Young getting real...I mean REAL real as he talks about how black folks need to get out of their feelings when it comes to racism, why should focus on economics, economics, economics! And, his views on sports as a powerful platform for bringing the country together (Spoiler Alert: His views on Colin Kaepernick’s protest might surprise you). You’ve never heard Andrew Young like this before.
