February is Black History Month

Black AmericansWe would like to honor our African American brothers and sisters during the Black History month of February.   We have all been blessed by the many talented, skilled, intelligent  athletes, authors, civil rights leaders, activists, entertainers, inventors, scientists, educators, politicians, lawyers, government leaders, singers and musicians. It was a mile stone in High Consciousness U.S. history for us to elect an African American President, Barrack Obama.  Walls and barriers are coming down!

The whole idea of anyone being biased or prejudiced against any person whose skin color is a shade different seems ludicrous.  We all came from the ONE GOD so we are all connected at the CORE of our being. Science has proven skin color in the genes is only different by a minimal .1 percent. Different shades only increase the beauty in diversity as the colors in a flower garden.

Amazing Grace
“At Carnegie Hall, gospel singer, Wintley Phipps delivers perhaps the most powerful rendition of “Amazing Grace” ever recorded.  He says, “A lot of people don’t realize that just about all Negro spirituals are written on the black notes of the piano. Probably the most famous on this slave scale was written by John Newton, who used to be the captain of a slave ship, and many believe he heard this melody that sounds very much like  a West African sorrow chant.  And it has a haunting, plaintive quality to it that reaches past your arrogance, past your pride, and it speaks to that part of you that’s in bondage.  We feel it. It’s just one of the most amazing melodies in all of human history.”  After sharing the noteworthy history of the song Mr. Phipps delivers a stirring performance that bring the audience to its feet!”
