This week's CONVERSATIONS W/ SMART PEOPLE series features two brilliant minds as the first hour (10am-11am) features ELI MARKUS, a prolific writer/thinker in BLACK EXCELLENCE.  We probe MARKUS to discuss his acute focus on RESULTS, and how he uses those results to debunk many of the negative STEREOTYPES used against AFRICAN AMERICAN MEN. We also discuss his idea of BLACK AMERICA as a whole needing to engage in a cultural CIVIL WAR between BLACKS & NIGGAS to determine its future fate. In the 2nd hour (11am-12pm) JULIAN ROSE joins us as he is amid his doctorate studies in BIOMEDICAL ENGINEERING at GEORGIA TECH. We speak to ROSE about his own experience that lead to his career choice, and what role RACE plays, if any, as for as his own advancement now and in the future. MENTAL DIALOGUE asking the questions America's afraid to ask. ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU THINK
