  • The Willie Lynch Letter: America's Guidelines to Making a Slave

    To all our faithful listeners and subscribers, we’re extremely excited for upcoming episode this weekend. (Not as excited as we would be if we had a guest speaker😉)but the subject about which we will be speaking is one we are very passionate about learning and talking more about.

    Though believed by many to be written in hindsight and a hoax, and regardless of the fact that it very well may be, the Willie Lynch Letter still poses an interesting point of view for the making and maintenance of a slave. Whether or not this is a legitimate instructional pamphlet, the content contained within it has manifested itself across our nation and the multidimensional damage it has created for generations is almost irreparable. We are not without hope, though, for the "healing for all nations" as the Word of God promises us is inevitable.
    A huge shout out to all who suggested the reading of the Willie Lynch letter!
    Sending loads full of ✌🏽❤️🪮 to all of you. Our appreciation for you knows no bounds.

  • Children, Phones, and Social Media

    Guess how old we were when we got phones…nope you’re not even close! Growing up, we were blessed with parents who realized the negative affect social media would have on our young minds. We were able to learn the plethora of diverse education that we could obtain through good books instead of social media. Now that we do have phones, it becomes increasingly apparent to us that we would in no ways be who we are today if we had owned one as children.
