Errol opens the show by setting the tone for a powerful and reflective conversation, while recognizing activist Merisol Vega and her work rooted in justice and community advocacy. David Marshall’s Marshall Minute anchors the hour with a sharp reflection on power, accountability, and the moral choices facing our movements. The discussion then expands during Tea With Tay, as Tay Akins and all hosts examine “When Power Becomes a Human Rights Violation,” unpacking how unchecked authority harms workers, families, and entire communities.
The hosts continue by asking “Who’s at the Center?”—a collective examination of whose voices are prioritized and whose are ignored in labor, policy, and human rights decisions. This leads into a candid conversation on truth and denial, confronting how people are often pressured to reject the reality they see with their own eyes. The show then deepens with “Generations, Grief, and the Work We Carry – Part II,” exploring intergenerational trauma, resilience, and the responsibility passed from one generation to the next. The episode closes with Union Buster of the Week, as Timmia Wiley calls out NIKE, spotlighting corporate practices that undermine workers and reinforce why solidarity and collective power remain essential.
