Touré Show Ep 29 Original Air Date: May 16, 2018 In 2021 we’ve got to start working smarter, not harder. You don’t need to work 50 hours a week to get rich. You need to make your money work for you. And you need to know that you can infiltrate the power structure and make their rules for you. Arlan Hamilton is an amazing Black female Venture Capitalist who was homeless not long ago and now has a crowdfunded VC fund that anyone can join (theoretically—right now it’s closed, slots sold out in a day! But I’m hoping it opens back up soon!) But here she talks about going from homeless to VC and how she’s trying to create business opportunities for Black, brown, female and LGBT founders because they are an under utilized resource even though they know how to make a dollar out of 15 cents. A throwback to an important conversation from 2018 with a woman who’s figured out how to steal white privilege and make it work for her.

Judas and the Black Messiah is a hot new movie starring Daniel Kaluuya and Lakeith Stanfield about Chicago Black Panther leader Fred Hampton and the FBI infiltrator who snitched on him. It’s a great story and a compelling film on HBO Max now. The story began with a treatment by the Lucas Bros who talk about the film from inception to screen. Great conversation for those who’ve seen the film—spoilers abound because we go deep into the story, the nuances, the making of it, and the ending. Should it have had a different ending? We discuss the alternate ending they considered, one I like even better. You can get half of this conversation for free. To hear the whole thing support us at Patreon.co/toureshow.
