60 Years Ago and One Day " Rev. Dr. Howard Thurman" A Revolutionary Christian

On April 16, 1961, Dr. Reverend Howard Thurman spoke at Boston University's Marsh Chapel on​ the topic "Community and Self" a powerful message of building one's self to produce accomplished results in one's community. I use the term dig deep, then dig deeper, to produce the you that can produce the change you want to see. If you have never read the words of Dr. Howard Thurman then you truly need to start a journey of understanding. The people that Howard Thurman influenced range from Dr. Martin Luther, James Farmer, Barbara Jordan, Jessie Jackson and so many other defenders of human rights in our country and around the world. So on this Saturday listen as I put my voice to Reverend Dr. Howard Thurman's words on The Blackman's Blog.

Wednesday's Provoked Thought

Sometimes I wonder? Curtis Mayfield wrote, if you had a choice of colors which one would choose my brothers, if there were no day or night which one would you perfer to be right? We have come so far yet we have so far to go. Whose words would you rather hear my brothers Lil Wayne or DuBois, Kanye or Washington, Lil Uzi or Gil Scott, Tyga or Langston Hughes, Azealia Banks or Fannie Lou Hamer, Theophilus London or Malcolm, Big Sean or Benjamin Mays, Wiz Khalifa or Medgar Evers well I guess we should want to listen both because didn't the historical words of former lead to the powerful words of the latter?. I want to listen to words that uplift, words that expose our discontent, and words that renew our spirit whether old or new. I will continue listen and learn from our past leaders and words of those new voices until our people's have won the absolute battle for universal equality.
