This was an AMAZING podcast. In regards to the vision of Freedom, GA, this reminds of Magneto, a Marvel comic book character, was so disheartened by the plight of fellow mutants, he created a territory as a safe haven for mutants so that they can thrive, not survive, in their day-to-day lives.

Kimonis Sadiq definitely has a wealth of opinions. it seems as though his opinions aren't driven by much fact though. With quotes from Malcolm X he attempted to heighten Trumps status by saying blacks hated him because white people said to, siting appearances on the Fresh Prince of Belair and his references in rap songs. However Sadiq neglected to reference the Central Park Five case, or his lawsuit for discriminatory practices, all the reports of his casual racism, etc... Along with a host of other reasons that make him a horrible person. With all that said and more I haven't said, I would like to warn you about the responsibility of being a consumable media and hopefully having people in your podcast that speaks truth to power, and doesn't come off sound like a black russian operative, such as the ones that infiltrated our community in 2015-16 election cycle.
