Love you, Joy-Ann. Miss seeing you everyday. For years, I’ve felt we were of the same kinda heart and soul. Had to miss you in Brooklyn in 2024. Had tickets in hand and we were SO excited; however, my health crashed & we couldn’t be there. And this year? Well…

This is an amazing interview, and something that is always on my heart, especially with a nephew who’s being swayed in ways about which you speak. Freshman in college, far from home.

Keep it going, girlfriend. You’re a gift! Hope to meet you someday.

Love & light to you!

Like my Dad said, race is their religion. It's insanity.

Thank you Joy. I’m 68 years old and learned some things tonight. I’ve lived in the Pacific NW just about my whole life, and am well versed in the Indigenous history, but was surprised of how much hadn’t been taught in school nor life on some aspects of slavery as related to our national songs’ missing verse, the churches, nor their divisions. And I’m thinking that may fall into the “white privilege” category…

Guessing I still have time to dig in and find out the rest of the true history of our country!

And I applaud you for that !!!

👏👏👏👏

As an adult my family is every nationality, skin tone/color, and language; we are very diverse group in all aspects 😂

Thank you for continuing to share your words, and your selections of guests. You are providing a large audience a real education as well as allowing us to find within ourselves that we have much more to learn in this lifetime to be of service to others in understanding.

Life sure takes us on some crazy rides. I feel as though that if we weren’t experiencing all that is happening currently I, personally, would not had my mind opened further!

So now let me put on my learning glasses n start peeling back pages I haven’t seen yet!

💕🙏💕

Thank you!

Any idea of building a bridge to bring MAGA/White Supremist Christan Nationalists into the tent, in my opinion, is a futile effort. The floodgates have been flung open to allow hate speech from the very pulpit to permeate our society. Apartheid is upon us. And this didn't just start with the Trump administration. Your discussion was so very good. Such wise words clarifying the historical thread. Thank you both for the dive into the real undercurrent that is at the heart of the political underbelly.

Thank you Joy and Robert. I learned a lot! Really scary times but shining light on these issues is one way to fight what is going on.

To quote the great Christopher Hitchens: religion poisons everything. That has never been more true in this abomination of a country than now.

I wish that Joy would stop being so interesting. I started watching just a segment of her show and ended up watching the whole thing. Then a started watching this interview. It is now 1:00 am in the morning, thanks a lot! jk

This is an eye-opening, info packed interview on Christian Nationalism. Scary stuff. Thanks so much for putting this out there.
