Who’s Coming Home?: Black Holidays in 2025

Outlaw Radeo:

HOST: B.I.G. Nel Obuya
PRESENTED BY: RUN It BAC Media | Digital Liberation & Black Intelligence

In this powerful episode of The Outlaw Radeo Podcast, B.I.G. Nel Obuya breaks down one of the most overlooked realities in Black American life: the emotional and economic weight of the holiday season.

From the brother sleeping on the couch while his lady carries the bills…
To the Thanksgiving table, trying to hold a family together…
To the single mother stretching her last dollars at the grocery store… —this episode reveals the truth behind the smiles, the photos, and the performances of holiday culture.

Nel connects the dots between Black economics, family survival, relationship strain, and the loss—and reinvention—of our cultural traditions.

The Street Scholar Report shines a light on:
* The passing of H. Rap Brown (Imam Jamil Al-Amin) and his legacy of community, accountability, and resistance
* Rising Black unemployment is going into the holiday season
* SNAP benefits ending in Georgia and the impact on food insecurity
* Black buying power vs. the 6-hour circulation of the Black dollar
* The emotional tax of performing happiness during hardship

This episode isn’t about judgment.
It’s about clarity.
It’s about truth.
It’s about understanding why our people are under pressure—and how we can move differently as a community.
