How does one grapple with identity and history in a world that often distorts both? Tune in to this episode of "A New Yorker's Perspective" as Ron Brown LMT and Mikey Fever sit down with Kujo Atkins Battle, introduced by our regular contributor Tiffany French. Kujo opens up about his upbringing in Richmond, Virginia, within the Moorish Science Temple of America, highlighting his mother's resilience despite her tragic shooting and paralysis. Kujo's story is one of strength and community, set against the backdrop of a supportive third-grade teacher and the cultural dynamics of Richmond in the 1980s.
The journey through Kujo's life continues as he recalls his days at Temple Number Six, where Friday fish fries and Sunday meetings were more than just events—they were pillars of community life. We discuss the significant impact of the Shaka Zulu miniseries in broadening cultural perspectives and challenging societal norms. Through Kujo's vivid recounting, listeners gain a deeper understanding of how the temple fostered a critical worldview, encouraging young minds to question and explore.
We then broaden the conversation to look at the larger historical context, examining the domestic and transatlantic slave trades and their unfortunate legacies. Kujo offers a nuanced view on the forced migration of enslaved individuals and the complex history that binds African Americans today. We tackle misconceptions and affirm the undeniable truths of our shared history, touching on the importance of continuous learning and the power of cultural heritage. This episode is a thoughtful exploration of identity, resilience, and the profound impact of community support on personal growth.
