Interweblians, welcome back this week. This weeks episode is a special one. It is dedicated to the Indigenous Peoples March and to all Indigenous Peoples of the world. This past Friday Self and family attended the 1st ever Indigenous Peoples March in the United States that took place in Washington D.C. A beautiful day with electric, positive energy. Even a dark cloud couldn't steal it's shine or power. The main focus was the solidarity, unity, and marching. A situation did occur which ended up globally viral but we explain the mess of a story to bring clarity to all and everything. We were there. We weren't Google or CNN or Fox 5 spectating, We experienced it and saw it with our own eyes in the flesh. Like I said this did not take focus away from the true meaning of this day. Listen to the full episode to hear a few interviews and speakers and singers sharing their energy with us. This episode is very important. Please share if you feel we did the story justice and brought some clarity.Thank You. Tune in you don't want to miss this one!!!. Please Like, Comment, Share, Rate & Subscribe. Peace!!!
