It’s not about right or wrong, it’s about understanding.

There has to be an uncomfortable element in the discourse for anything to change.

"A lot of times people look outside themselves for blame and answers.

But, all of the conversations and/or arguments you're having with other people are just rehearsal for the ones we need to have with ourselves."

When you LOVE people in their wrongdoing, it turns a mirror on them and shows them themselves. People inextricably know when they’re doing wrong; so you don’t have to tell them what they’re doing wrong, but rather show them, by and through LOVE. ❤️

Honoring Dr. King's Legacy "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. #MLKDay #MartinLKingJr #BlackLivesMatter Where are today's religious leaders that will leave the pulpit and the four walls of the church to affect change in the Black family as Dr. King did? His legacy change the landscape of how we are viewed in the world. Where are the religious leaders today who has taken the baton to keep progress moving for the betterment of the Black family unit? I'll wait...

A new scientific truth does not triumph by convincing its opponents and making them to see the light, but rather because its opponents eventually die, and a new generation grows up that is familiar with it.

WHO IS TO BLAME FOR THE FAILURE OF THE BLACK FAMILY?

I would blame the FAILURE of the BLACK FAMILY on the CHURCH. Why? Because, from my experience, churches seem to only minister to spiritual needs. You cannot challenge someone spiritually, if you have not challenged him or her naturally, first. The Bible even states, "but it is not the spiritual that is first but the natural, and then the spiritual (1 Corinthians 15:46 ESV)." It is a much more weightier task for you to teach someone godly principles if they're uneducated (and don't know how to earn a degree), broke (with no hope of ever recovering), unemployed (and don't know how to apply for one), underemployed, ignorant, struggling (living from paycheck-to-paycheck with no savings), and so on. If you want to incite virtue in someone: teach them how to get a job, apply for school and the discipline to earn a degree; teach them how to save money; teach them how live peaceably in their neighborhoods; teach them about sex and sexuality… TEACH on issues that affect us naturally, then teach on spiritual things.

Be free in who you are, even at a young age.

It is hard to let old beliefs go. They are familiar. We are comfortable with them and have spent years building systems and developing habits that depend on them. Like a man who has worn eyeglasses so long that he forgets he has them on, we forget that the world looks to us the way it does because we have become used to seeing it that way through a particular set of lenses. Today, however, we need new lenses. And we need to throw the old ones away.
