|  FROM OUR OWN...
 "People have to know
what real revolution is.
It's about change.
It's about sacrifice. It's about endurance.
It's about the willingness
to see this thing through
until the end.
The bus boycott lasted 381 days.
We have to change laws and culture
of law enforcement which
makes them think
they are above the law.
Finally we need to have
leadership which ensures
that the law is equally applied
to everyone.
Power to the People!" By
Darrell Murkison

Our collective hearts were broken over and over seeing George Floyd brutally murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis MN! It pained me immensely as a mother of three beautiful black adult children! Lord have mercy! We need the love of God in this country! Not the hatred that is so rampant!
