What is black empowerment when it seems to benefit not the vast majority but an elite that tends to be recycled?

I'd rather go to hell than worship a homophobic God.

Jesus could weep. Sometimes when you look at the ugliness that makes you weep, you know that the heart of God is also weeping. Jesus is for real. He does not give up on anyone, least of all on me.

I would refuse to go to a homophobic heaven.

Bringing people together is what i call 'ubuntu,' which means 'I am because we are.' Far too often people think of themselves as just individuals, separated from one another, whereas you are connected and what you do affects the whole world. When you do well, it spreads out; it is for the whole of humanity.

It means a great deal to those who are oppressed to know that they are not alone. And never let anyone tell you that what you are doing is insignificant.

One of the ways of helping to destroy a people is to tell them they don't have a history that they have no roots.
