Not to be contrarian, but I'm not feeling this Pass the Mic Tour. I have great respect for all three brothers, especially Michael Eric Dyson and Cornell West who are both Alpha brothers, but we as black people talk things to D-E-A-T-H.
Do we really, at this point, need another round of talks and discussions about anything? The issues that plague our communities (drugs, police brutality, teen pregnancy, etc..) are well-known and documented. We have "symposia" out da ying-yang as it is. My hope for Pass-the-Mic is that at the end of yet another discussion, there are some action steps proposed and taken. Doesn't matter whether the steps succeed or not, but let's do something. If this is what they do with PTM, then I apologize in advance for my rant.
