Apr 7, 2026 | Hot Topics

In this episode of The Way We See It, Pastor Alex Bryant breaks down a powerful conversation between Stephen A. Smith and Anton Daniels on politics and Black culture. Using clips from their full conversation, Alex weighs in on some of the toughest questions facing the Black community today. Why does it often feel like you can only be a Democrat? Why are Black Republicans so often attacked? And what role does the victim mindset play in holding people back? Anton Daniels makes the bold claim that 98% of the struggles in the Black community are self-inflicted wounds, and Stephen A. Smith pushes the conversation into deeper waters. Pastor Alex adds his own perspective on personal responsibility, political identity, and what it takes to move forward with truth and accountability. This is real talk on culture, politics, and the way we see it.
