In this episode of The Way We See It, Pastor Alex Bryant is joined by Dr. Todd Preston to talk through a recent Facebook post that stirred up a whole lot of conversation. The post was directed to Black Americans and shared what Alex calls the “cheat codes for success in America”—a challenge originally laid out by Booker T. Washington and W.E.B. Du Bois. Their message was clear: if you want to build lasting success, pursue education, own land, and start your own business. While many embraced the post, others didn’t like it. In this candid conversation, Alex and Dr. Preston dive into the tension between two prevailing mindsets—one that says “pull yourself up by your own bootstraps,” and another that says “the system is rigged, so why even try?” This episode is a real talk discussion about personal agency, generational struggle, and how we move forward with both grace and grit.
