Puerto Rico's Biggest Spider | The Huntsman | YouTube Video

Be Sincere is a podcast and audio file taken from a YouTube video. This podcast has a message.

I talk about my travels and encounters with 109 abroad. This is a great introduction to the 109 story for new listeners. It's also a great review for my seasoned audience.

I retell an experience I had in Costa Rica about racial profiling and white supremacy.

I traveled to Puerto Rico, Ecuador, Panama, and Costa Rica recently. Here is a recap.

We talk about random topics during this episode.

I shook Blacc Sam's hand on Friday.

I read a chapter from the Motorcycle Diaries by Ernesto 'Che' Guevara.

This is a teaser for the story of 109 -- the movie.

April 15, 2023

Big Mike helps me flesh out some details about a work of art I recently was inspired to create. He also asks me about a serious question related to sex and the lives of young people. I didn't answer him directly, nor did my answer make much sense. But, hey! I tried to consider the sad and horrible situational quandary Big Mike proposed. Listen up!

Let's talk about sex ...

I talk about the novella entitled Seedfolks. In class today, we discussed stereotypes after reading a chapter in the book. This topic reminded me of my own experiences with teaching English in South Korea.

How did this happen to me in Washington DC?

Joe and I discuss Ethiopia and what she means to the Black man.

I was touring Beverly Hills while waiting for my private clients to enjoy their meal with family.

King Pleasure -- Jean Michel Basquiat's exhibit will open on March 31, 2023.

My story is like a modern day retelling of Don Quixote de la Mancha. But, it takes place in Los Angeles in the Crenshaw district. This is my screenplay set to podcast. I can't write a screenplay just yet, so I am just putting my ideas on tape for posterity.

What about Black male masculinity?

What is America good for? And how about that Chris Rock comedy special?

This is what my documentary would be about if I were to make one.

This episode is about Mel Gibson, Jesus, Kanye West, Nipsey Hussle, Ethiopia, Eritrea, and 109.

Benjamin Banneker was so many things -- astronomer, author, mathematician, farmer. He was a genius. And he died on 10-9. 

I figured out why I am often seated in row 10 on the train.

Dj Quik has been my favorite rapper/producer since I was in junior high school. 

Recently, I thought about this question. Dr. Greg Carr broached the subject two days ago. Shimrit Lee wrote about this topic, too. What do you think about it?

I Found Nubians at The Getty Villa | Los Angeles Adventures | BBRAVELER | iSee109 |  I visited the Getty Museum a couple of weeks ago. Today my wife and I visited the Getty Villa. On my first visit I did not see Africa represented in the exhibits. However, I found representations of Africa at the Getty Villa. This Nubia exhibit was not marketed all around the city of Los Angeles, however. The people who can benefit mostly from seeing this exhibit do not know it is on display. I hope that I am doing my part to spread the word. Go see the exhibit for yourself. It costs only $20 for parking. Of course you also have to pay for gas and/or transportation.

My Instagram page reveals what was on my mind in 2019. I retell the events that were so poignant and impressed me at that time. From a dream in which I saw a vision of my future book's cover to the murder of Nipsey Hussle, these events shaped my understanding of my life's mission. Or at least I had a story to tell and possibly sell. Either way, I knew what I had to do. Now you can learn the story and events that inspired 109.
