Ep 83: "GhettoPhysics" E. Raymond Brown

In this edition special edition of Po Politickin, we politick with Author, visionary and hip hop griot, E. Raymond Brown. E. Raymond Brown stops by to discuss documentary entitled "GhettoPhysics". "GhettoPhysics" is a cutting edge hybrid documentary that initially whisks us to the streets depicting very real street players, the pimps and ho's, as they play out their game. The film then transitions us to the classroom and the corporate boardroom, where the same game is being played, only at a much more subtle and globally consequential level. The underlying theme is "dominators and the dominated" or in street lingo, "pimps and ho's." "GhettoPhysics" reveals the universal game of control, manipulation and subterfuge that is escalating in the world at a maddening pace, then offers a solution. http://www.ghettophysics.com/
