They discuss claims circulating about policies that could pressure dual citizens to “choose” a nationality, and what that would mean for millions of Black and Brown people, especially families with older relatives and inconsistent historical records. Dr. Dabenga argues this moment fits a broader pattern of escalating enforcement—moving from border messaging to interior targeting—raising concerns about ICE encounters, documentation demands, and “lawless” enforcement behavior. Candace and Dr. Dabenga also break down practical protection steps: don’t go anywhere with unidentified agents, ask bystanders to record everything, understand what kinds of warrants are required, and build a family plan for emergencies. They also broaden the conversation to diaspora identity—why people pursue dual citizenship for safety, opportunity, and connection—and how media narratives can shape misunderstandings between African Americans and Africans. This is an urgent, real-world conversation about immigration enforcement, civil rights, due process, and community preparedness—with history, context, and tools you can actually use. Across Netflix, iHeartRadio, Warner Bros., and Paramount, the signal is clear: Media is consolidating quietly, not loudly. Partnerships are the new acquisitions, and acquisitions are increasingly about IP, audience, and infrastructure—not prestige. This week reinforces that the next wave of media power won’t come from who makes the most content—but from who controls distribution, data, and direct audience relationships.

Brooks shares his journey from growing up around activism to becoming one of the nation’s few Black male educators — and the first classroom teacher in 150 years to serve on the Atlanta School Board.

In this episode, Candace Kelley leads a timely conversation unpacking the headlines shaping culture, housing, and civic life. The show begins with a discussion on the elimination of the penny and how price rounding quietly impacts cash users, raising questions about equity and who bears the hidden cost of everyday policy decisions.

The conversation then turns to the viral Washington, D.C. Airbnb squatter case, examining tenant rights, housing loopholes, and the role of community accountability. The panel explores how legal gray areas, short-term rentals, and rising housing insecurity intersect, and what this case reveals about broader challenges in urban housing across the United States.

Historian and educator Dr. Hasan Kwame Jeffries joins the show to connect Black history to present-day civic engagement. He discusses systemic racism as a continuous structure rather than a repeating cycle, the importance and limitations of voting, and how protests, boycotts, and grassroots organizing have historically driven social change. Dr. Jeffries also reflects on the cultural responsibility of hip-hop, the impact of commercialization, and how public conversations around figures like Sean “Diddy” Combs fit into a larger reckoning around power, accountability, and influence.

The episode also addresses the rise of misinformation online, including viral celebrity hoaxes and unverified claims, highlighting the importance of media literacy in an era driven by algorithms and outrage.

Comedian Big Mama closes the episode with humor and sharp commentary on the week’s most confusing and outrageous stories, offering levity while underscoring the absurdity and seriousness of the news cycle.

For the first time, Pam Warner , the mother of Malcolm-Jamal Warner, sits down and shares the real story behind the man the world loved.

]]> How to Save Our Kids: The Crisis No One Wants to Talk About Candace Kelley, LaJill Hunt, Company X Media Group, Kimberly Latrice Jones, Kerry Grant, Troy W. Harris Jr 00:23:43 In this explosive and deeply human episode, Kimberly Latrice Jones breaks down one of the most urgent crises facing Black America: the collapse of structure, accountability, emotional intelligence, and real support for our boys and young adults. Jones goes beyond headlines and politics to expose the developmental science behind teen decision-making, the dangers of treating 14-year-olds like adults, and the generational trauma shaping today’s youth. She also reveals powerful, practical strategies — from voter engagement events to mentorship models — that actually work to pull young people back from the edge. The conversation explores community correction, righteous anger, family structure, accountability culture, emotional intelligence, and the essential role of fathers and uncles in shaping young men. This is not a rant. It’s a blueprint — for parents, educators, community leaders, and anyone who wants to help save a generation.

]]> Gratitude Beats anxiety: The Science of Filling Your Cup with Dr. Karma Hill Karma Hill, Malcolm -Jamal Warner, Troy Harris, Company X Media Group, Candace Kelley, Layne Fontes 01:02:13 Positive psychologist and PhD candidate Karma joins Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Candace Kelley to unpack real-world tools for resilience in 2025—gratitude practice, “three good things,” mindfulness, and how to build self-care that actually refills your cup (not just “self-maintenance”). Karma shares an intimate story of surviving a post-partum heart attack and bypass surgery, the often different symptoms women—especially Black women—experience, and how to advocate for yourself in medical settings that too often dismiss our pain. The trio digs into boundaries as a meeting place of love, the brain chemistry behind being “addicted” to anxiety, why stillness feels hard (60–70k thoughts/day), and micro-habits you can do in five minutes—from car meditations to unsent-letter releases. They also tackle the political stress of 2025, community action, and “replace judgment with curiosity” (shout to Pearl Cleage). If you need a grounded reset plus science-backed tactics you can use today, this one’s for you. Timestamps: gratitude routines, nervous-system resets, caregiver dynamics, advocacy scripts, and how to stay whole while serving others.

Kelley 00:49:43 In this powerful and urgent episode of Not All Hood, Malcolm-Jamal Warner and Candace Kelley sit down with viral rapper and political educator YellowPain to unpack the systemic roots of voter apathy, the complexity of political language, and why local elections matter more than we think. Known for his groundbreaking video “My Vote Don’t Count,” YellowPain breaks down how propaganda, lack of education, and generational disillusionment have left many Black Americans disconnected from the political process. He shares how his personal wake-up call came from a cousin running for Congress and how that conversation sparked a mission to educate through music. The episode also explores what it really means to "go back to Africa," the uncomfortable truths about identity and belonging, and the importance of raising the next generation of politically literate leaders through early education and civic exposure. From Dayton, Ohio to Ghana and beyond, YellowPain reminds us: if we don’t show up, we lose our power. It’s not about just voting—it’s about knowing why you’re voting and who truly affects your daily life.

This Thanksgiving season, Malcolm and Candace welcome Queen Yonasda—an activist, hip-hop artist, and spiritual leader whose story is a testament to resilience and the power of community. As the granddaughter of Louis Farrakhan, leader of the Chicago-based Nation of Islam, and the late Wauneta Lone Wolf-Cox, a member of the Oglala Lakota Nation, Queen's heritage bridges Black and Indigenous legacies of strength and activism. Her father, Theadius McCall, brought the vibrancy of Brooklyn, NY, into her dynamic upbringing.

Queen shares her deeply personal journey of being diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer during the pandemic, a life-altering experience that redefined her priorities. She also sheds light on her pivotal role in the Standing Rock protests, where tribes united to protect sacred treaty lands and water from the Dakota Access Pipeline. From children running hundreds of miles to Washington, D.C., to enduring tear gas and water cannons, Queen paints a vivid picture of courage, unity, and sacrifice.

As we gather for Thanksgiving, Malcolm and Candace explore themes of gratitude, healing, and advocacy through Queen’s extraordinary story. Let this episode inspire you to reflect on the power of community and the ongoing fight for justice.

Raheem shares intimate stories about his father’s battle with schizophrenia and the strength it took to step up as his caregiver until his father’s passing.
The conversation touches on the importance of “homework” in therapy, where Raheem emphasizes practicing new habits outside of the therapy room to face life’s challenges differently. He also reveals his connection to his West African roots and reflects on the unique experience of being Black in America, calling for more safe spaces and support systems within the community.
His message to Black men is profound: “You’re not alone.” Through prayer, action, and a refusal to judge others, Raheem reminds us to approach mental health with empathy and understanding, saying, “Try not to call anybody crazy, because you don’t know what they’ve been through.”
Tune in for a deeply moving episode that sheds light on mental health, legacy, and building a stronger, supportive community.

🚨 NEW EPISODE ALERT 🚨

We’re excited to welcome back Dr. Daniel Black for his second appearance on the show! In this episode, Malcolm, Candace, and Weusi dive into a powerful conversation with Dr. Black about parenting, discipline, and the cultural influences that shape how we raise children in today’s world.

From “plantation parenting” to the balance between protection and freedom, they explore how value systems have evolved over time and the impact this has on children's development. The group opens up about the challenges of discipline, sharing personal experiences, while discussing the tension between fear, obedience, and respect.

Dr. Black connects these modern challenges to traditions, rituals, and the powerful role imagination plays in shaping a child's future. As they reflect on “old school” approaches versus “new rules,” they question how much of what we pass on to our children is rooted in history—and how much is based on what we hope for them in the future.

Tune in for an insightful and heartfelt discussion about how we can raise the next generation without passing down the wounds we’ve inherited.
