In this episode of 'Need to Know' hosted by the award-winning Dr. Nsenga Burton, the focus is on the African American proverb 'Don't start none, won't be none.' Dr. Burton discusses the current political climate, particularly about the actions of the U.S. President known as '47', who is instigating tensions through the imposition of tariffs on countries like Mexico, Canada, and China. The episode emphasizes the limitations of presidential power, the importance of not agitating other nations, and the necessity for thoughtful consideration before making political moves. Dr. Burton underscores the significance of leaving others in peace and not provoking unnecessary conflicts.
