For decades, the U.S. passport was considered one of the strongest in the world. But in 2025, that reality has shifted — quietly, but dramatically. In this episode, we break down why U.S. passport power has declined, what rank it truly holds today, and how global mobility has changed for Black Americans looking to live, travel, or retire abroad.
You’ll learn how political instability, visa restrictions, and shifting international alliances are reshaping where U.S. citizens can go easily — and where barriers are rising. More importantly, we explore why this matters for the Black Diaspora: access to safer countries, better healthcare, long-term residency pathways, and a future that isn’t limited by U.S. borders.
If you’re planning your exit, preparing for retirement abroad, or simplypaying attention to global mobility, this is a must-listen.
