@@naturaldocblu816They identify & push for things specifically for Black People. Kamala just like Obama & every other politician...has never made a law or policy to even the playing field for Black Americans! They might have Black DNA but like this Brother said...they don't really understand or want to help when they have the power to do so.
You ladies always deliver. This has been one of my favorite episodes. Brother Hargrave broadened my horizon with Mr. Trump and Mrs. Harris with some of his political talking points. Keep doing what call are doing. 🪖
🙌🏽 So glad you enjoyed! Thanks for staying to the end! Our horizons are broadened every time we have a conversations with these brothers. Can’t wait to release more of their content! ✌🏽❤️🪮
@gottabeme great job ladies and great questions for brother Hargreaves. Keep up the good work. The ability to have unemotional conversations on politics and religion is what our community needs. Love it❤
I appreciate this Pod and your guest. Keep up the good work. I’m in church and I wish I had a man my life growing up like this brother. You guys are so fortunate.
🫡 didn't see the emoji you were referring to, but my family and I stayed till the very end. Excellent podcast and much respect to you ladies and Brotha Hargrove for tackling such tough issues without your community culture and providing an example on how to address it within a family dynamic within the diaspora. Salute to you and shalom to the leaders of your homes.✊🏾👊🏾
🫡 after seeing a piece of this podcast in IG I had to look for the whole thing. I did learn a lot from this. I’ve been struggling with who I’m going to vote for, but he gave me some good things to think about. I would love to see the next podcast you have with him. 🙏🏽
🫡🫡🫡 I watched this interview until the end and I’m very proud of y’all young ladies. Pls Continue to shine and continue to be unapologetically yourselves and black. God bless you 🖤🙏 Love from London 🇬🇧
Thank you. Obama wasn’t raised black. But the collective accepted his blackness without question while questioning his citizenship. Now with Harris we are questioning her citizenship but her blackness. Truly the freaking matrix.
Watching for the first time, love this. I haven’t finished the show but want to commit that Kamala has said she is black before this election. Anyone that goes to an HBCU especially in her era does so with a sincere pride of your heritage. In being apart of the Divine 9 is full admission of blackness. Not a political move.
Of course you know that people of various backgrounds attend HBCUs, and join Divine 9 organizations. And it is not uncommon that people affiliate with certain historic institutions for political or career advancement/networking. That's certainly a part of it.
@@TheRecReport of course you know, but Kamala Harris’s mother made a statement and an effort to raise her girls as young black women. They lived in a black community and Berkeley/Oakland. Their childhood friends are black and their neighbors were black. There’s nothing about Kamala Harris her childhood, her 10 years and her university years that had anything to do with political or career advancement. Your people are sick as hell.. There’s a photograph of Kamala Harris when she graduated from law school., it’s her mother, her sister and her teacher from elementary school. she is a black woman and she is the mother of a dear friend of mine. The other thing I think people who didn’t live in California in particularly northern California and the Oakland, Berkeley San Francisco. Nobody really gave a damn what you were so there was no need to hide what you were or pretend that you were who you were.. Kamala Harris has always been a black child black child, black teenager, a black college student and a young black professional. she’s never pretended to be otherwise and be quite honest and such a diverse state as Calif. There are a lot of biracial people.. and those who are Part Black. Funny, how Barack Obama and Kamala Harris are never mistaken for anything with Black people by white people.. but Black people go crazy trying to define who they are?
Hello ladies, I'm a new subscriber. Im anticipating a fresh, intelligent and thoughtful views on topics instead of what I've been hearing lately. There's more that I want to say but I'll wait until I see more from the two or three of you. Respectfully yours from Washington DC
Most black people I know have questioned it because Kamala herself never claimed it before and on paper officially represented being South Asian (Indian). There are tons of black people who openly question it.
Kamala's own father questioned her claiming black! He claims Irish/East Indian by way of West Indies/Jamaica (where there are Many Indian migrants). 👍🏽 Her mother is Indian.
@@IndigoWisdom1 you gotta stop saying things that I just not true. When we say, she never claimed blackness before it is just historically not true. She has always talked about her experiences living as a mixed race kid going to university on purpose to understand more beyond her west Indian roots and her Jamaican roots what blackness met in America, she wanted to learn more and didn’t have to go to Howard. Like many kids who raised in environments that are mixed or were very little black populations who also choose to go to HBCU for the same reason.
I completely agree with this brother's perspective, and he did an excellent job communicating his rationale step by step in a clear manner. Thanks for sharing his mind with us!
Congratulations, it was a great postcast 🫡🫡🫡🫡 I was expecting something more dedicated to his work and calling as church leader. The end brought a little of what I was looking for, Lol. Brothers Stephen hargrave is plain spoking, and his sermons can be challenging for some. Quote " I will preaching until we know singing "😂😂
🫡🫡🫡 I enjoyed this episode a lot. Had the right amount of depth, Covered various appropriate topics, Touched black/Africanity Great great information. Lastly I want to say: the ending segment of this episode felt like my experience in the church - racism in the church. I resonate. I will relisten and and vent Good night
My issue with her saying she is "Black/African American" is she specifically says she is Indian but i never hear her bring up being Jamaican or talking about her Jamaican upbringing and culture, or even being Caribbean..they keep saying "Black" to purposely associate herself culturally with the Black American ethnic group, which she is not. All that talk of collard greens, why no talk of callaloo. Politically, it makes sense because Jamaican-Americans do not have the history/political capital or voting bloc that ethnic/native Black Americans have. Her Black American cultural cosplay is over the top. Big up your Jamaican and indian heritage and just be yourself.
Powerful episode. Wonderful speaker, and a captive audience of you three ladies, who are making a difference with your podcast. Of course, always a pleasure to have Camille on the show. Hilariously, an episode of interviews with Camille would be a great idea. Keep in mind, there have always existed in the United States many different types of “black” communities. Even in general, so not recognizing one member from one black community, or another, does not necessarily make that member any less so. Keep up the great work with your podcasts. You are on to something special. Upward and onward to 100,000 subscribers.
Interesting that so many in the comments get caught in the exact trap Hargrave mentions at 9:22 without listening to the respectful, pretty balanced discussion. HBCUs and greens are side issues, division of the community and monetization of the culture are what we should be focusing on.

@@ddotcarter06 There is no reason to question these young ladies...when every chance they have they personally say they identify as Black/AA. Kamala that is not the case.
@@jwiggins1112 - the fact remains - they are just as mixed as Kamala is - hell they are lighter and hair texture is finer? But we wanna check the sistas blackness!? C'mon fam - this has got to stop
@ddotcarter06 But you continue to look over...these sister's on every video Identify & speak to Black Issues. Obama Kamala Pandered to Black People & Did nothing for us in office. But continue to vote for this mixed Chameleon because you feel some relation to her; when she's just as evil as Trump is. 🤷🏿♂️
I first want to say that I love your podcast, and honestly, never miss an episode! This is the first time I am commenting because I want to offer some context and understanding that your discussion about Vice President Kamala Harris lacked. I noticed you all mentioned that she didn’t identify as Black until recently, but that’s not entirely accurate. As a young Jamaican woman also of “mixed heritage/race” (as Americans often phrase it), I can personally relate to Kamala’s experience. Growing up in Jamaica, where people of African and Indian descent-often called "coolie"-are common, race isn’t a constant focus like it is in the U.S. For many of us, it’s not something we’re forced to confront until we’re placed in environments where race is a bigger part of daily life. In fact, I didn’t fully realize how central race is until I moved to the US and attended Howard University, a HBCU, just like she did. That experience opened my eyes to racism in a way I never experienced growing up, and it made me more conscious of how I was being perceived. Harris has always identified as a Black woman, especially during her time at Howard University in the 1980s. There are multiple records of her and her friends recounting her embrace of her identity as a Black AND Indian (coolie) woman decades ago, long before it became a national talking point. She’s been open about both her Jamaican and Indian heritage, and it’s important to remember that being multiracial doesn’t mean she needs to choose only one part of her identity. It’s possible for her to fully embrace her Blackness while also acknowledging her Indian roots. (The red dot/sitcker on her forehead is called a bindi btw lol but tika is a little different - a red dye used by practicing Hindus) I am not trying to speak on your experiences, but I know it can feel like multiracial people are pressured to “pick a side” in the U.S., and that feeling of never being enough for either side can really complicate things. In Kamala’s case, I think her identification as Black has been there all along, especially if you look at her history, rather than just the past few years. Thanks for reading, and as always, I appreciate the thoughtful discussion on the show!
I appreciate how he approaches his criticism of Trump with a level of caution, while simultaneously being quite forthright about his views on Kamala Harris. It’s clear he has strong feelings against her, and that’s perfectly valid. I find it important to acknowledge that the experience of being Black can vary significantly from person to person, heavily influenced by one's upbringing and life circumstances. Ultimately, I believe that God embodies love and inclusivity rather than division. In contrast, Trump has consistently demonstrated behavior that can be described as grotesquely divisive, often exhibiting extreme cruelty and blatant disrespect toward individuals across all racial backgrounds, including both men and women. Given the multitude of serious charges that Trump faces, I can't help but wonder: if he were in Obama's shoes with such controversies surrounding him, would Obama have had the opportunity to run for President in the first place? It raises an interesting discussion about the standards and scrutiny applied to different politicians.
@1:06:06 for black leader universally - I agree, all the leaders are gone and we as the younger generation jave been trained not to rise up and lead or to destroy whomever is rising up. But I acknowledge Farrakhan as one of the foremost leaders we have As well as Dr Umar Johnson. But these need to start a revolutionary movement
OMG!!!! Brother Hargrave’s mind!!! 💜 He’s “woke” on all levels. God has truly blessed him with the ability to extract societal mayhem, while standing in truth. Love this message!! 🫶🏽👏🏽👏🏽
The beginning conversation is interesting coming from mixed children. How do you identify? It has appeared to me that mixed children ie Tracee Ellis Ross constantly put out in the universe their blackness. Very interesting to me.
My first time commenting here. I appreciate the perspective of Mr Hargrave. His reasoning on who's better for black folks in the white house was a scenario about if he were to meet both candidates "what/how he thinks" they would respond to his request for black folks... just imo I'd need more reasoning than that... Also about Harris (who I'm not voting for), even if she didn't identify as black you best believe being in America she's had a taste of the "Black experience" just as you'll have, so to Mr Hargraves point about her being able to "care" about black people, coupled with her having "the experience", I'd say she's probably more invested in seeing blacks win. Well maybe not "win" but certainly more invested than Trump... But I could be wrong, there's people who have the "black experience" then hate black folks even more lol... we'll be fine either way... Trump is cool too, he's a rich white guy from nyc growing up in the 70s & 80s
with that being said, Ms Harris definitely plays up the "black side" for votes, I assume... and Trump plays up the "working man middle-America side" for votes as well
I think its important to really educate yourself on the people you vote for. Harris attended an historically black college, Howard. She wrote a book called "The Truths We Hold: An American Journey." released in 2019. Where she specifically goes into detail and acknowledges her experience as a black woman in politics. Her book also details her journey to becoming the second Black woman ever elected to the U.S. Senate and the first female, first Black, and first Indian-American vice president. This is a woman who is very proud of her heritage and being mixed race. Its just disgusting to see someone like Donald Trump try to smear her blackness. Seeing you ladies repeating the foolishness Trump has said is disappointing. No person of color should be questioning Harris blackness. Anyone of color would be regarded as a "Nigga" by Trump and his zealots... That is until said person decides to run for president or a position of power, and being a person of color is seen as a threat to whites losing power within our governments. So... In conclusion ladies... Harris a black woman, and there is a strong likelihood she will become the first female, black president of the United States of America. Lets show this woman some respect.
I completely agree with what you’re saying, however, we are all multicultural to an extent and I think it is disrespectful to slap her with the label of being black only. Let’s not disregard the woman who raised her.
@@alliecat1658 Right on, summarized from her book. "Kamala realized at her time studying at Howard University that she wanted to be a lawyer. She realized her true heroes weren’t academics and doctors, but lawyers. She admired those involved in the civil rights movement and wanted to become like them to enact lasting change in the world. After graduating in 1986, she had the goal of becoming a prosecutor. Her family wasn’t totally on board because to them the law had too often been used against minorities. But she felt confident that she could use her position to be a champion for equality. " This is the woman Black people are allowing Trump to label as "Just turned black." Wicked stuff. Have mercy on them please.
@@andrefrbkthank you for sharing. I admire her, I do. I have just had some terrible experiences with liberals and their policies. I work in healthcare and have held many titles that have allowed me to gain a new perspective on both political parties. Over the last several years, I can’t stand 100% with liberals.
I watched from beginning to end. I will definitely purchase Mr. Stephen Hargrave's book. In regards to VP Kamala Harris' blackness or non blackness I am curious to know why would people assume she was only raised as Indian when her Jamaican father (who is still alive) was very present in her upbringing. She is well aware of the history diaspora, and the colonization of Africans and East Asians.
Thanks for the support and the question! Just last night we did a deep dive into this discussion so stay tuned for the release of the podcast where we discuss who we are and why! ✌🏽❤️🪮
Lemme just ask... is the church you folks attend preaching liberation theology? Brother Hargrave seems to be on that approach but these may simply be his personal feelings. PS: I like the austere and serious way you folks dress. Its one less thing to think about, less of a distraction and tells the world you are not of their world (at least on some level). Looking forward to the church episode!
Just because you don’t identify as black doesn’t make you less black. Aint isn’t all of their moms whiter than show?? Regardless if y’all use black vernacular and have a black parent you were raised by doesn’t make you MORE black. This feels like direct hypocrisy and immediately contradictory

@@jwiggins1112 - the fact remains - they are just as mixed as Kamala is - hell they are lighter and hair texture is finer? But we wanna check the sistas blackness!? C'mon fam - this has got to stop
@ddotcarter06 But you continue to look over...these sister's on every video Identify & speak to Black Issues. Obama Kamala Pandered to Black People & Did nothing for us in office. But continue to vote for this mixed Chameleon because you feel some relation to her; when she's just as evil as Trump is. 🤷🏿♂️
🫡🫡🫡 I drank this whole episode up! Especially the end…..and yesssss please next episodes!! The end killed me,✌🏼❤️🪮 “ what about the white people”?!😂

Let’s go! 🫡🎉❤️
I first want to say that I love your podcast, and honestly, never miss an episode! This is the first time I am commenting because I want to offer some context and understanding that your discussion about Vice President Kamala Harris lacked. I noticed you all mentioned that she didn’t identify as Black until recently, but that’s not entirely accurate.
As a young Jamaican woman also of “mixed heritage/race” (as Americans often phrase it), I can personally relate to Kamala’s experience. Growing up in Jamaica, where people of African and Indian descent-often called "coolie"-are common, race isn’t a constant focus like it is in the U.S. For many of us, it’s not something we’re forced to confront until we’re placed in environments where race is a bigger part of daily life. In fact, I didn’t fully realize how central race is until I moved to the US and attended Howard University, a HBCU, just like she did. That experience opened my eyes to racism in a way I never experienced growing up, and it made me more conscious of how I was being perceived.
Harris has always identified as a Black woman, especially during her time at Howard University in the 1980s. There are multiple records of her and her friends recounting her embrace of her identity as a Black AND Indian (coolie) woman decades ago, long before it became a national talking point. She’s been open about both her Jamaican and Indian heritage, and it’s important to remember that being multiracial doesn’t mean she needs to choose only one part of her identity. It’s possible for her to fully embrace her Blackness while also acknowledging her Indian roots. (The red dot/sitcker on her forehead is called a bindi btw lol but tika is a little different - a red dye used by practicing Hindus)
I am not trying to speak on your experiences, but I know it can feel like multiracial people are pressured to “pick a side” in the U.S., and that feeling of never being enough for either side can really complicate things. In Kamala’s case, I think her identification as Black has been there all along, especially if you look at her history, rather than just the past few years. Thanks for reading, and as always, I appreciate the thoughtful discussion on the show!
I appreciate how he approaches his criticism of Trump with a level of caution, while simultaneously being quite forthright about his views on Kamala Harris. It’s clear he has strong feelings against her, and that’s perfectly valid.
I find it important to acknowledge that the experience of being Black can vary significantly from person to person, heavily influenced by one's upbringing and life circumstances. Ultimately, I believe that God embodies love and inclusivity rather than division. In contrast, Trump has consistently demonstrated behavior that can be described as grotesquely divisive, often exhibiting extreme cruelty and blatant disrespect toward individuals across all racial backgrounds, including both men and women.
Given the multitude of serious charges that Trump faces, I can't help but wonder: if he were in Obama's shoes with such controversies surrounding him, would Obama have had the opportunity to run for President in the first place? It raises an interesting discussion about the standards and scrutiny applied to different politicians.
It shouldn't be about race or sex . The credentials and background of each candidate should be all that determines who win. Simplifies it doesn't. 🤨
@1:06:06 for black leader universally - I agree, all the leaders are gone and we as the younger generation jave been trained not to rise up and lead or to destroy whomever is rising up.
But I acknowledge Farrakhan as one of the foremost leaders we have
As well as Dr Umar Johnson. But these need to start a revolutionary movement

OMG!!!! Brother Hargrave’s mind!!! 💜 He’s “woke” on all levels. God has truly blessed him with the ability to extract societal mayhem, while standing in truth. Love this message!! 🫶🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I’m glad you expounded on Black people thinking the Republican Party is their answer and that is asinine
The beginning conversation is interesting coming from mixed children. How do you identify? It has appeared to me that mixed children ie Tracee Ellis Ross constantly put out in the universe their blackness. Very interesting to me.
My first time commenting here. I appreciate the perspective of Mr Hargrave. His reasoning on who's better for black folks in the white house was a scenario about if he were to meet both candidates "what/how he thinks" they would respond to his request for black folks... just imo I'd need more reasoning than that... Also about Harris (who I'm not voting for), even if she didn't identify as black you best believe being in America she's had a taste of the "Black experience" just as you'll have, so to Mr Hargraves point about her being able to "care" about black people, coupled with her having "the experience", I'd say she's probably more invested in seeing blacks win. Well maybe not "win" but certainly more invested than Trump...
But I could be wrong, there's people who have the "black experience" then hate black folks even more lol... we'll be fine either way... Trump is cool too, he's a rich white guy from nyc growing up in the 70s & 80s
with that being said, Ms Harris definitely plays up the "black side" for votes, I assume... and Trump plays up the "working man middle-America side" for votes as well
Camille looks EXACTLY like my niece Alora.. wow
I think its important to really educate yourself on the people you vote for. Harris attended an historically black college, Howard. She wrote a book called "The Truths We Hold: An American Journey." released in 2019. Where she specifically goes into detail and acknowledges her experience as a black woman in politics. Her book also details her journey to becoming the second Black woman ever elected to the U.S. Senate and the first female, first Black, and first Indian-American vice president. This is a woman who is very proud of her heritage and being mixed race. Its just disgusting to see someone like Donald Trump try to smear her blackness. Seeing you ladies repeating the foolishness Trump has said is disappointing. No person of color should be questioning Harris blackness. Anyone of color would be regarded as a "Nigga" by Trump and his zealots... That is until said person decides to run for president or a position of power, and being a person of color is seen as a threat to whites losing power within our governments. So... In conclusion ladies... Harris a black woman, and there is a strong likelihood she will become the first female, black president of the United States of America. Lets show this woman some respect.
Exactly!
I completely agree with what you’re saying, however, we are all multicultural to an extent and I think it is disrespectful to slap her with the label of being black only. Let’s not disregard the woman who raised her.
@@alliecat1658 Right on, summarized from her book.
"Kamala realized at her time studying at Howard University that she wanted to be a lawyer. She realized her true heroes weren’t academics and doctors, but lawyers. She admired those involved in the civil rights movement and wanted to become like them to enact lasting change in the world.
After graduating in 1986, she had the goal of becoming a prosecutor. Her family wasn’t totally on board because to them the law had too often been used against minorities. But she felt confident that she could use her position to be a champion for equality. "
This is the woman Black people are allowing Trump to label as "Just turned black." Wicked stuff. Have mercy on them please.
Amen.
@@andrefrbkthank you for sharing. I admire her, I do. I have just had some terrible experiences with liberals and their policies. I work in healthcare and have held many titles that have allowed me to gain a new perspective on both political parties. Over the last several years, I can’t stand 100% with liberals.
I watched from beginning to end. I will definitely purchase Mr. Stephen Hargrave's book. In regards to VP Kamala Harris' blackness or non blackness I am curious to know why would people assume she was only raised as Indian when her Jamaican father (who is still alive) was very present in her upbringing. She is well aware of the history diaspora, and the colonization of Africans and East Asians.
Paused @ the 8:58 mark. He makes a very good point. Excellent point about Trump.

15:10 - I would say two things can be true about Mrs. Harris: she’s intelligent but i sense some manipulation as well.
💯
Lemme just ask... is the church you folks attend preaching liberation theology? Brother Hargrave seems to be on that approach but these may simply be his personal feelings.
PS: I like the austere and serious way you folks dress. Its one less thing to think about, less of a distraction and tells the world you are not of their world (at least on some level). Looking forward to the church episode!
Just because you don’t identify as black doesn’t make you less black. Aint isn’t all of their moms whiter than show?? Regardless if y’all use black vernacular and have a black parent you were raised by doesn’t make you MORE black. This feels like direct hypocrisy and immediately contradictory
