#60 Progress trumps Authoritarianism, Every Time! | Stoppage Time with Uncle Rob

Welcome to this week’s episode of Stoppage Time with Uncle Rob — a deep, honest, and hopeful reflection on where we are, where we’ve been, and the powerful people lighting the way forward.Yes — the title is intentional. And yes — we are nine months into an administration that increasingly echoes authoritarian regimes of the past. But history shows us something important: progress always wins.This episode is more than just political commentary — it’s a declaration of resilience, truth, and belief in the unstoppable force of people power. Uncle Rob reflects on the state of democracy, the erosion of First Amendment rights, and the ongoing cultural, legal, and moral battles we’re all witnessing here in the U.S.But most importantly, this week’s conversation is full of hope — found in the stories of bold, brilliant women of color who are reshaping industries, challenging systems, and leading communities. You’ll hear from rising leaders like Amiah Sheppard, whose journey from foster care in Inglewood to the halls of Columbia University and USC is nothing short of incredible — and just one example of the kind of purpose-driven innovation that gives us hope.If you need to feel inspired — genuinely inspired — by the kind of people who are building a better future in the face of political darkness, this episode is for you.Tune in. Feel seen. Stay encouraged.This is what optimistic resistance sounds like.Peace. Joy. Love. And belief in the better days ahead.— Uncle Rob
