What makes me different from the vast majority of Black American thought leaders who have fought their way up to be a part of the elite media is the vast majority grew up middle class, went to elite schools and learned to perform intellectualism and they inherited networks

I was asked how I get on so many National podcast? Truth is regarding stories, I stopped, pitching stories to other shows years ago, it can be stressful to twist yourself into other people’s interpretations of your lived experience, what came after ? sometimes producers approach me..

Working

Is it possible that Jay walking is a crime to provided a cover against liability ?

I don’t want to see Tyler make another damn movie that involves Black American history !

What’s Ray Saying … be ready for impact ! Ignorance may not survive this one!

Necessary knowledge is on the way… impact is imminent

Where did you learn about Black American history and who taught you ?

What if the first story you heard about yourself was never yours to begin with what if it was handed to you shaped by fear history and the people who needed the world to look a certain way this season of what’s Ray saying will ask what happens when you finally question that story.

You know most of us don’t remember learning our ABCs, but we remember the first time we learned about race, not because someone set us down and explained it, but because the world showed us, in a look a warning, or silence, those early lessons stay with us longer than you think.

There are historians, there are Storytellers, there are veterans. there are rural black man, there are scholars, and there are people who grew up in illiterate households, and there are people who understand the emotional architecture of race, but there is no one else who is all these things.

As a Fulbright Specialist, Educator and Narrative Scholar, I study how stories shape identity, community, and civic understanding. As an award-winning podcaster or an independent creator working far from major media hubs, I understand the challenges, Freelancer‘s face.

Beware of the false profits of media and entertainment, those who make money or have a platform on social media suddenly become experts, justice warriors, and thought leaders by virtue of of nothing more than talking and social media post.

What makes the podcast what’s Ray Saying is there are shows that tell history, but this is a completely different genre. It’s not a history show. It’s not a sociology show it’s not a memoir. It’s not a political show. It’s not a documentary. In fact. It’s all of them and none of them.

There is a huge gap between what people think they know and what they actually know about black American history and culture and the consequences of learning black history through white eyes is significant. 

Like no podcast on earth

This year we are not holding back !

Powerful compelling new episodes of What’s Raying Saying on the way, stay tuned. Compelling storytelling, history and personal narrative, an exploration into Black culture! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/w...

Trump and his supporters are determined to turn back the clock on all equality gains.

It starts now

It’s worth noting that in 2026, “America will never be an all White country dominated by a single group again, that ship has sailed and can never turn around. Any belief that it can be is in support of a “Lost Cause”. There will be an ugly backlash against Trump supporters when the tables turn.

Why would you want to perform at the “Peforming Arts Center” for an Administration that wants to destroy evidence of Black abuses and achievements. While adding his name as a monument to his own egotistical legacy Are we only to be the “Entertainment” for the Master and his friends?

Will we continue this coon show of Black folks telling ourselves how bad we are how dumb we are, how we can’t do nothing how we can’t be organized we have no morals you don’t see white people doing that this brainwashing of having us beat our own ass on a regular basis has gotten out of control.

Trumps distractions and his support of Putin is not an issue of “Wagging the Dog”, but rather massaging his balls.

My worry is Trump may ask the CIA to kill Zelensky or give Russian assets a way to do it by compromising his security, and providing Russia with intelligence.

Not that it matters just perspective, consider this , I don’t get calls, text or personal E-mails, I have only had 1 visitor in 12 years. Consider what your life could be , be thankful and return the love you get.

I lived and live a storied life not necessarily a good one

When folks ask what I do for a living I say “I am retired, I raise animals”

My life can be devided into 3 parts , growing up in a delapdated Southern Ghettos, where most of the family has died and folks don’t remember me , my 20 years in Army and folks who never connect with me, and a life of Academics where I have no friends. Such is my life !

What's Ray Saying?" refers to the podcast by storyteller Ray Christian, a veteran and educator, who shares personal narratives interwoven with Black American history, culture, and life lessons from his perspective in Appalachia

The internet allows people to communicate with more people then they normally would, creating the idea they are more influential and credible than they are, when confidence is greater then competence…. you have an indicator, of “Bull Shit”

Things that keep Republicans up at night !

If I had to list the fields that people who approach me about storytelling are typically most often best suited for. Communications /Journalism Social Work / Counseling Fine Arts / Theatre History English / Writing Law
