TonyTidbit: A Black Executive Perspective

• When Black Conservatives Deny Reality

  Episode Title: Episode Audio Link: https://podcast.ablackexec.com/episode/when-black-conservatives-deny-reality Episode Video Link: In this episode of BEP Live, Tony Tidbit and Chris P. Reed take on one of the most polarizing and perplexing topics in modern politics: the rise of Black conservatism and the narratives that accompany it. Using real clips from prominent Black conservative voices, the hosts unpack the startling disconnect between what some of these figures claim and the lived realities of Black Americans.Tony and Chris cut through the talking points to examine how the GOP continues to reshape conversations around racism, identity, and power, often in ways that erase or distort Black experience. They explore why some Black conservatives adopt these narratives, what they gain, what they risk, and what it means for the larger community. This episode doesn’t shy away from contradiction, discomfort, or calling out political gaslighting. Instead, it pushes for a deeper, more honest dialogue about history, policy, and the long-term implications of aligning with a party that often minimizes or denies the systemic issues still shaping Black life.If you’re ready for a conversation that challenges assumptions, confronts false narratives, and forces a real look at the political crossroads facing the Black community, pull up a seat. This one demands your attention.▶︎ In This Episode 00:00: Introduction to Black Republicans00:59: Welcome to A Black Executive Perspective Podcast03:08: Diving into Black Conservatives and Trump05:24: Exploring Black Republican Perspectives07:12: Historical Context and Modern Misconceptions10:31: The Impact of Policies on Black Communities15:21: The Role of Individualism vs. Collective Action18:01: The Reality of Black Progress and Oppression29:04: The Importance of Accurate Historical Narratives32:32: The Impact of Racism on Wealth and Society33:25: Workplace Dynamics and Racial Perceptions35:35: Black Support for Trump: A Complex Issue36:38: Historical Context of Political Parties and Racism39:12: The Role of Black Conservatives in Modern Politics50:23: The Grifter Allegations Against Black Republicans55:42: Final Thoughts and Call to Action🔗 Resources Links and resources mentioned in this episode:🔔 Listen and Subscribe Listen to this episode and subscribe for future updates subscribe to A Black Executive Perspective podcast onYouTube PodcastsApple PodcastsSpotify PodcastsAmazon MusicOther platforms or by searching "TonyTidbit" if you like what we're doing and would like to support us, here's some ways you can help us continue the uncomfortable conversations that drive changesubscribe to our newslettergive us up to a 5 star review on Apple...

• When Lived Experience Gets Labeled a Conspiracy

  Episode Title: Episode Audio Link: https://podcast.ablackexec.com/episode/when-lived-experience-gets-labeled-a-conspiracy Episode Video Link: In this episode of Need to Know, the conversation takes aim at a recent Pew Research Center study that framed Black perspectives on racial progress as “racial conspiracy theories.” The backlash was immediate for one reason. Lived experiences are not theories. They are the day-to-day realities shaped by systemic racism in workplaces, classrooms, courtrooms, and communities.This episode unpacks where the study missed the mark, how data often lags what Black Americans already know, and why dismissing these truths causes further harm. With sharp analysis and real-world examples, the discussion calls for empathy, historical awareness, and genuine allyship to confront the systems that many would rather pretend do not exist.▶︎ In This Episode 00:00: Introduction and Welcome00:18: Pew Research Center Study Overview00:48: Black Americans and Conspiracy Theories01:49: Critique of the Study's Presentation02:47: Editorial Note and Infographics04:09: Real Experiences of Systemic Racism05:46: Daily Challenges Faced by Black Americans13:07: The Importance of Empathy and Allyship14:40: Conclusion and Sign-Off🔗 Resources Links and resources mentioned in this episode:🔔 Listen and Subscribe Listen to this episode and subscribe for future updates subscribe to A Black Executive Perspective podcast onYouTube PodcastsApple PodcastsSpotify PodcastsAmazon MusicOther platforms or by searching "TonyTidbit" if you like what we're doing and would like to support us, here's some ways you can help us continue the uncomfortable conversations that drive changesubscribe to our newslettergive us up to a 5 star review on Apple Podcastsshare an episode with a friend, family member or colleague🗣️ Follow @ablackexecfollow us across social media @aBlackExecLinkedInInstagramFacebookYouTubeTwitter
