Ep 472 | The Reason White America Questions Juneteenth | Degenerate ‘Pound Town’ Sends Sad Message

Fearless with Jason Whitlock

A recent Twitter Spaces conversation about Juneteenth left Jason doubling down on his premise that the celebration as a national holiday cannot be decoupled from the death of George Floyd and the summer of the Black Lives Matter riots. And therein lies the issue that white Americans have with Juneteenth: “Ushering in a holiday on the back of George Floyd ... ain't got nothing to do with freedom and liberty [and] has everything to do with rubbing it in people's faces and being divisive and being racially idolatrous. That's reality.” Jason has a lot to get off his chest. For a brief moment, Bryson Gray’s “Reclaim the Rainbow” was bumped out of the #1 position on the iTunes Rap Chart by Sexyy Red & Nicki Minaj’s “Pound Town 2.” Jason has thoughts on what it says about our culture that such a vulgar, hyper-sexualized song could outperform a song inspired by God’s word. T.J. Moe joins the show to discuss the unbelievable story of OceanGate’s Titan sub missing in the North Atlantic while taking tourists, including a British billionaire, on a tour of the Titanic’s remains some 12,000 feet below the surface. In Tennessee Harmony, Turning Point USA pastor Rob McCoy discusses his thoughts on politics and the church, and Dave Shannon helps Jason unpack Pastor McCoy’s thoughts.
