Village Vibes Only with Meoshuh Jackson
This podcast is Meoshuh’s love letter to the culture and the next generation. As the proverb goes, “It Takes A Village To Raise A Child”. The priority of Village Vibes Only with Meoshuh Jackson is to facilitate rich discussions surrounding raising black children and teens to be future leaders and lead rich, purposeful lives. Insight and resources are shared to assist in raising black youth to be financially, politically, academically and socially conscious as well as leaders in their community and beyond. Conversations on mental, emotional and spiritual wellness in black youth will also be featured. Listen in weekly to hear a fresh, wise voice from the village pull up to the virtual ‘front porch’ to share in their area of expertise as we aim to raise up a prepared generation. Your village is here!

Habari Gani?! Happy Kwanzaa! Ujima!
Ujima means collective work and responsibility. In other words, my brother's problems are my problems. On Day 3 of Kwanzza, let's unpack this Ujima principle and its importance to black youth being raised to be conscious of community ills and seeing themselves as solutionists and helpers one to another. They, too, are their brother's (and sister's) keeper. Here to walk us through this is Dr. Danielle Whylly, an expert on community outreach and youth advocacy. Grab your snacks, meet me on the front porch and let's get this wisdom! See you in the village!
