"Our fundamental belief is that if you empower an individual, you inspire the family. If you inspire the family, you uplift communities. If you uplift communities, you alter the world's view on humanity. Hope dope is that?" she asks.

Woodson—and his slew of equally accomplished namesakes. "Godwyn, Dwayne, Betty, Bunchie and Shawn. What do they have in common?" she asks before launcing into the infectious Lil' Wayne track Mr. Carter. "As Kanye West said, 'I make black history every day. I don't need a month.' And we don't. But we are still appreciative," she adds. "What bridges hip-hop for me are four people in three generations: My grandmother, born in 1926, as part of the great migration from North Carolina landed in Harlem. My mother was born in 1950, in the era of the Black Panters, Young Lords and Motown sound. And then my uncles, born in the late 60s, grew up in the 80s—the real hip-hop era." 00:28:00Lincoln LoungenoHistory Meets Hip-Hop,Syreeta Gates,Mr. Carter,Lil' Wayne,Lincoln MKX Presents HistoryHistory Meets Hip-Hop host Syreeta Gates, who can also be heard weekly on New York's WBAI public radio, pays homage to Black History Month via its founder, Carthttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-music-evelyn-champagne-kingMusichttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-music-evelyn-champagne-king/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-music-evelyn-champagne-kingTue, 07 Feb 2012 15:00:00 GMTLincoln MKX Presents MUSIC: Evelyn "Champagne" KingLOTL Radio host Reginald Ford kicks it with disco diva Evelyn "Champagne" King, whose 1977 hit Shame was one of the first records inducted into the Dance Music Hall of Fame, and whose latest single is titled Everybody.

When Nakea asks about real-life correlations to the tawdry tale, Victoria replies: "In some circles, a pastor is a celebrity—just like meeting an actor or athlete. They have so much power. And so often we're attracted to people with power. And if you have all that power and you can sing? It's a wrap. So I think that's the challenge that first ladies have." When our host notes, "I wouldn't be surprised if there's a first ladies reality show coming down the pike," ReShonda chimes in, "I know somebody who was shopping something like that. But I would be surpised if they actually did it, because I can't imagine any pastor would want his wife to do it—and want his dirt out there. It's hard to keep quiet.

During the hourlong special, a caller who'd hazed freshmen as an undergrad expresses remorse for her actions–and offers up a prescription for making the entrance into fraternity and sorority life more humane. "It's imperative to begin talking about ending the hazing process completely. Because a mother and a father didn't celebrate Thanksgiving with their son, and that could've easily been me at one point or you at one point; it could've been a lot of us. Unfortunately, we think that it's not that bad until it actually is that bad," she says. "It was necssary for me to do it to prove I was worthy enough to be connected to them. I had friends who always talked about the fact that this was too much, or that we would never do such and such when it was our turn. And when it became our turn, we did the exact same thing." 00:59:00Lincoln LoungenoCollege hazing,HBCU Digest,Jarrett Carter,Robert Champion,Lincoln MKX Presents EducationHBCU Digest host Jarrett Carter examines hazing on college campuses in the wake of the November 2011 killing of Robert Champion, an openly gay drum major at Flohttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-music-billy-beck-of-the-ohio-playersMusichttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-music-billy-beck-of-the-ohio-players/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-music-billy-beck-of-the-ohio-playersTue, 07 Feb 2012 02:00:00 GMTLincoln MKX Presents MUSIC: Billy Beck of the Ohio PlayersLOTL Radio host Reginald Ford hangs with Ohio Players founder Billy Beck, who has a plan for returning R&B to its glory days.

"You can catch a young lady's attention by impressing her and caressing her through your lyrics, without every having to put a hand on her or go underneath her clothes.

"It was just an ordinary Sunday. What were excited that it was Youth Sunday, which meant we were in charge of every aspect of church that day, from reading the scripture, to reading announcements to bringing the morning message," says the civil-rights activist, whose 2011 memoir, While the World Watched: A Birmingham Bombing Survivor Comes of Age during the Civil Rights Movement, recounts the horrific event. "There were two things on my mind that morning: That I was the Sunday school secretary, and I really was proud of having that job, because I was only in the seventh grade. And the second thing was that Cynthia's father was my elementary school principal, and Cynthia and I were in a social club together. We'd visit at each other's homes and drink punch and play records and just laugh and act silly as girls do. But that week, we'd placed an add in the Birmingham World newspaper announcing that the Cavalettes Club would meet Sept. 15. And then it gave you the names of the girls in the club, but it also said don't forget to bring your $3—we were ordering caps and T-shirts for everybody. So I was excited when I went to church that morning. Then all I remember after the bombing was that I went from dancing on tiptoes to just numb that evening and night and on into the week." 00:25:00Lincoln LoungenoCarolyn Maull McKinstry,While the World Watched A Birmingham Bombing Survivor,Marie Stroughter,African American Conservatives,Lincoln MKX Presents HistoryAfrican American Conservatives host Marie Stroughter goes one on one with Carolyn Maull McKinstry, eyewitness to the 1963 Ku Klux Klan perpetrated 16th Street Bhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-poetry-open-mic-love-jamArthttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-poetry-open-mic-love-jam/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/02/07/lincoln-mkx-presents-poetry-open-mic-love-jamTue, 07 Feb 2012 02:00:00 GMTLincoln MKX Presents POETRY: Open-Mic Love JamThe Speakeasy Café host Nyla Allisia welcomes romantic scribes from around America for an open-mic poetry jam.

"We shot this film in Prague, Czech Republic, for about three and a half months. The day after we got there, after one night of sleep, we hopped in a van at the crack of dawn and went to boot camp for about a week and a half—military training, marching, nine-mile hikes in the mud with packs on, building tents blindfolded," says the Moesha cast member. "Working with George Lucas, you could only expect that it was going to be intense. So we didn't know exactly what to expect. But we got to go up in a P-51 fighter plane before we actually shot the film. When I did that it was like, Wow this is something I've never had to do for a role.

"The people who came to this three-day event are the upper eschelon, so their response was wonderful, considering that jazz is a foreign music to them. It's probably like world music is to us. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to share my tradition with the people. I actually cried when I was leaving the festival because the young people were just so warm. And if you know anything about all the civil strife the country has endured for 30 years—just to see them with love in their hearts and being so kind and caring. It moved me so.

Like every day on the TV you see the new iPhone 5 is coming, so you get ready for it, you save your money for it, and when they hit the market, you want to be one of the first people to have it," he says. "On the solar-energy front, there needs to be some major advertising and marketing campaigns to educate the public on how much money can be saved using clean energy. If I were a developer and I had 100 acres to develop, I'd probably develop only 90 acres of it. On the other 10 acres I'd set up a 100-megawatt solar farm.

"A few years ago, he had a comedy club here in Atlanta called Chris Tucker's Comedy. I was headlining at the room, and I came out and told the audience that I didn't feel good, and they laughed because they thought it was part of my show," the funny lady says. "The next thing you know, I was on the floor, holding my head, and his brother, Dexter Tucker, was standing over me, tellin' the people on the phone, 'Y'all need to get here. This girl done passed out onstage.' When they took me to the hospital, they realized I had an aneurism. But I'm so happy to tell you about that because, according to the statistics, I'm not supposed to be here. I was blind in my left eye and paralyzed on my left side. But now I can see you and touch you just as good as anybody.

The author has this to say to the hoards of would-be entrepreneurs who put off starting their business due to lack of bucks: "If you wait on getting the money, you're probably going to be waiting your whole life. I tell people to challenge your thinking. Ask yourself, How long have I been saying that - when I get the money? Because it's not always about the money. It's often about the knowledge. And once you have the knowledge, you can get the money." 00:15:00Lincoln LoungenoBrian Joubert,Running with Blinders,Klarque Garrison,starting a business,Lincoln MKX Presents BusinessSurvive 365 host Klarque Garrison talks with self-made millionaire Brian Joubert, whose new book is titled Running with Blinders: The Top 17 Mistakes of Small Bhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/01/31/lincoln-mkx-presents-philanthropy-cnns-soledad-obrienEducationhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/01/31/lincoln-mkx-presents-philanthropy-cnns-soledad-obrien/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/lincolnmkx/2012/01/31/lincoln-mkx-presents-philanthropy-cnns-soledad-obrienTue, 31 Jan 2012 01:00:00 GMTLincoln MKX Presents PHILANTHROPY: CNN's Soledad O'BrienSaturday Mornings host Joy Keys chats with Soledad O'Brien, for whom philanthropy begins at home - and then expands into communities across America. In August 2011, the CNN anchor teamed up with investment-banker hubby Brad Raymond on The Soledad O'Brien & Brad Raymond Foundation, which "provides young women with a bridge between obstacles and opportunity." Here she recounts how the org came to be: "It started in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. My best friend, who's from New Orleans - and was my executive producer at CNN - called me one day. She'd moved back to try and rebuild her house. And she said, 'There's a girl here who needs a scholarship for school. Can you help her pay for tuition?' And my husband and I said sure. So we started funding small grants to young women who were trying to figure out their educational situation in a really bad enviromnent. For these girls, there's no cushion - no sort of, Oh, I'll borrow the money from my aunt, or work an extra job or take the money out of a 401(k) that my dad has." 00:20:00Lincoln LoungenoSoledad OBrien CNN,Brad Raymond foundation,Hurricane Katrina,Saturday Mornings with Joy Keys,Lincoln MKX Presents PhilanthropySaturday Mornings host Joy Keys chats with Soledad O'Brien, for whom philanthropy begins at home - and then expands into communities across America.

"It's a lonley place out there. A lot of people don't understand that," she says of life on the road in the league. "These players go to hotels. They arrive one, two, three in the morning. Nobody's in the room. They try to order room service; some hotels don't even have it at that time, so they just turn on the TV. All the glitz and glam is when the lights are on and they're on the floor and there's thousands of cheering fans. But when them lights go off and you get on that plane - half the time it's freezing cold," continues the No Ordinary Love author. "I lived the life with Doug and I saw it. And I loved being able to sit there and cuddle my huband, and if he didn't have a good game I could look at him right in the eye and tell him it's OK, because you can get right back out there and play again and win the next one."   00:27:00Lincoln LoungenoJackie Christie,Doug Christie,Basketball Wives LA,Rodney Perry Live,Lincoln MKX Presents FamilyRodney Perry Live host Rodney Perry gets up close and personal with Jackie Christie – whom no one can accuse of not standing by her man, former NBA shooting gua
