“Message in the Music” Part 2: Kenny Gamble

October 27, 2016

I think it’s important to again let you know how I’m connected to Kenny Gamble.  First and foremost, before I ever met him, I was a big fan of his music.  Not only did I enjoy the music immensely, I was overwhelmed by the lyrics- the message in the music. Significantly, I used to literally […]

We Have Missed the Diagnosis – Part 2

October 21, 2016

Let me begin by saying that you don’t have to agree with me and I will probably offend many Blacks that believe that they have so-called “made it” in America.  That’s not my intention because the facts are the facts.  There are real reasons why our community isn’t making more progress than we are, and […]

“Message in the Music” Kenny Gamble

October 15, 2016

God Made Man in His Own Image, Why? Part 2

September 29, 2016

In Part 1 of my article, I tried to establish that there is definitely a Creator no matter what science confirms or doesn’t confirm – the fact of the matter is, I believe that both science and faith are on the same page most of the time. This Creation, which includes man, is no accident […]

God Made Man in His Own Image, Why? Part 1

September 24, 2016

Black Culture is About Achievement, It’s About Greatness, and it’s About Excellence

August 6, 2016

The Black community in America, which consists of nearly 47 million people, contrary to popular opinion, isn’t a monolithic group.  The fact of the matter is that Black America is represented by a very large diverse description with unique characteristics to their sub-group. South vs north; east-coast vs west-coast; urban vs suburban; urban vs rural; […]
