We as a people have to get Right with the Redeemer. Black people we need to get down on our knees and say thank you Lord, we have past into the era of reconciliation on earth with our fellow man and God, not repeat error’s of our past and remember there is a living GOD, he only wants us to believe by Faith that he exist and by Grace you have life everlasting,
