"Give Me A Chance...I'll Give You A Choice" feat. 13th Congressional District Candidate for the City of Detroit; Martell Bivings

In this week's episode we are interviewing the only African American Candidate for the 13th Congressional District in the City of Detroit on either side of the political aisle; Martell Bivings. Martell is the Republican Candidate for the 13th Congressional District going against Michigan State Legislature and India Immigrant Shri Thanedar in the upcoming November General Election. In this week's interview we discuss the fallout from the August Primary Election results and the harsh reality and the likelihood of no African American representation from the 12 or the 13th Congressional District from the City of Detroit in almost 70yrs. In a crowded field of Democratic Candidates in the 13th District, Martell ran unopposed on the Republican side vying for this coveted seat heading into the November General Election. Listen and learn about this candidate is who could be Detroit's last shot at Black representation in Congress. 
PLUS, we have a thought-provoking and engaging Thought of the Week, which I believe is directly in line with tonight's theme, entitled "Vote Or Die Trying." IN this week's Thought we discuss the growing voter apathy in the African American Community and what we need to do to overcome it. We are the answer, we are the solution to our problems. And, here's another opportunity for us to heed the call to action. 
This is definitely a show worth your time and attention, and we hope that you not only listen but encourage others to do so as well.
