About Calling Balls & Strikes

Calling Balls & Strikes with Willie G. Smith is about looking at real issues without automatically taking a side.

We discuss politics, race, culture, money, history, and current events from a Black American perspective while recognizing that no community, political party, public figure, or institution should be above honest examination.

The goal is simple: follow the facts, understand the history, challenge misinformation, encourage accountability, and have conversations that make people think.

You may agree with the call. You may disagree with the call. Either way, the conversation is worth having.

Calling Balls & Strikes — Black Perspectives on Real Issues.

Facts. History. Accountability. Solutions.
