What does real community look like in the firearms space, and why does it matter now more than ever? In this episode of We Da People, we sit down with Phillip Smith of NAAGA to talk about Black gun ownership, firearms training, preparedness, safety, and advocacy from a community-first perspective.
This conversation digs into why representation matters in the 2A space and why getting more Black families comfortable with firearms, emergency preparedness, and legal awareness is so important. We talk about how NAGA helps beginners get started, creates a low barrier to entry for new shooters, and builds confidence through training, competition, and support.
We also get into emergency planning, the rise of neighborhood preparedness groups, why communications matter in a crisis, and how advocacy connects directly to gun rights. From new shooters to experienced carriers, this episode is about building real knowledge, real skill, and real community.
In this episode, we cover:
- What NAGA is and who it serves
- Why Black gun ownership and training matte
- How beginners can get started safely
- The value of competition for new shooters
- Emergency preparedness and neighborhood support
- Why safe storage and gun responsibility matter
- Legal advocacy and protecting gun rights
- How to plug into a like-minded community
Key takeaway: Training, preparedness, and community are stronger when people feel seen, supported, and equipped to grow.
