Jamie Foxx, Killer Mike and Kirk Franklin Join DL Hughley’s Conversation Series to Discuss Protests / WATCH

*This past Friday night, comedy legend DL Hughley welcomed rapper/activist/entrepreneur Killer Mike; Academy award-winning actor and comedian, Jamie Foxx; and Grammy-award winning gospel star Kirk Franklin to a special edition of his conversation series, DL Uncut and I wanted to touch base and see if you or any of your colleagues might be interested in sharing highlights from the episode.

Each guest dropped by to share their views on the continued protests against police brutality and racial violence while sharing messages of justice, unity, and action.  

• • DL and Killer Mike discuss the impact of forceful protests and the responsibility that comes with it
    “Peaceful protests don’t make people uncomfortable enough to make change…America will never answer to you if you whisper.” 

• • Jamie Foxx touches on the importance of embracing and celebrating blackness throughout his film career
    “We struggle to get to a certain point in our lives where they’ve told us to be mainstream…but if my black fans are not proud of what I’m doing then somehow it doesn’t feel the same.”

• • Kirk Franklin shares thoughts on Donald Trump’s Bible Photo-Op
    “The same Bible held reads Psalms 119 that says ‘Hide thy word in thy heart’ not hold my word in thy hand.  So just because you hold it doesn’t mean you’re in it”
