Praise The Lord! It is February 3rd, 2018, and it is Black History Month.Some Folks Don't Know this,
but it use to be A Weekly Celebration..It was Called: "Color History Week" Anyway, I want to discuss a Few Things. I Will talk about Our History and What We Must do now.
To Start, Let's talk about My Family and their Little Part in History:
My Grandmother-The Late Gladys Mae kirsey Parsons. was a Gifted Musician. And The Gift continued
to Grow Through Generations. She was The First Musician of St. Stephen A.M.E. Church in Detroit,
Michigan. Her Sister Emma with another Sister was One of The First Black Females that Sung on
The Radio. She was The First Piano Teacher of The Late Frank White, a Musician Known All
across The Country but who Spent Many Years as a Choir Director at St. Stephen. Her Son, My
Late Uncle Kenneth Kirsey was a Famous Jazz Pianist. Our Roots are Very Strong in Canada.
So he was Known as The Canadian Jazz Pianist. He Later came to The United States. He Lived in New York City where he died in 1983. And he Had one of The Biggest Funerals for Jazz Musicians
There. Some of the People that he Played with and For were, .Red Allen, Billie Holiday and More.
And I Founded and Pastor, The First African Methodist Episcopal Church in Dearborn, Michigan-
"New St. John African Methodist Episcopal Church-Dearborn". I am Very Active in Helping All People in Dearborn and Detroit, Michigan. Dearborn was a City that Was Well Known for it's Racism for Decades. I am The Only Black Female Pastor in Dearborn. And Now, I am The First Black Female to Be a Chaplain in The Dearborn Police Department.
Now We know about Certain Black People in History Like, Harriett Tubman, Phyliss Wheatley
and Frederick Douglass...( Who Definitely is No Longer Alive). But Everyone Do Not Know
about The Hard Work of The Late Detroit Council President Erma Henderson, Journalist Benjamin Pelham and Robert Pelham Jr. People who used their Gifts to make a Difference. And then it was
Rosa Parks and Dr. Martin Luther King. Civil Right Fighters, who did not just Fight for Black People but for Women and The Poor and Neglected of All Races. And Though Controversial, Malcolm X
Turned a Few heads as Well and Took Black People to another Level.
As far as Inventors: we know about The Traffic Light and Madam C.J. Walker who was
known for Beauty. But what about: Dr. Shirley Jackson? She was a Black Physicist who Received a Doctorate in Nuclear. And how about Lewis Latimer? He invented The Carbon Filament which is the main part in a light bulb. He also assisted Alexander Graham Bell in getting a Patent on the design of The Telephone. I can Go On and On. But let me end with this.
We Thank God for The Late Medgar Evans who was Killed doing The Work in 1963.
And Today, We Really Appreciate the work of The Rev. Al Sharpton, The Rev. Jesse Jackson,We are
Very Thankful for The Many Years of Hard Work and Fighting for us done by Congressman
John Conyers. Regardless of what has been Written, We Will Never Forget. And Please Keep up
The Fight, Congresswoman Maxine Waters, Congressman Elijah Cummings
and Detroit Native, Bro. Joe Madison.
And We Thank God for The Continue Hard Work of President Barack Obama. and Others.
You see, The Fight Still Goes on. And Now with Young People like Mary Pat Hector, a 19 Year old who works with The Youth of
The National Action Network, who is Very Intelligent and Very Involved in Politics, We are Ready to Bring Down Strongholds! So, to The Children, Nieces and Nephews of Jim Crow, Look Out, For
We are Coming After You! And Here is a Reality Check. To You White Supremacy Folks and The Like....There is No Pure Race. You are Not All White!
So Deal with it and Repent Quickly. And if You Do Not Believe me, Just
Check The True Word of God..."The Bible". Yeah, Check it Out...Still in Denial?....Can You Spell
"Ancestry.com?!" So Let it Be Known...That Donald Trump Making us The Victims of his Over
71 Years of Hatred, Racism and Being Unloved by his Own Father is Over! #45 and Friends...
Fall on Your Knees and Repent, Because Your Appointment with God is at Hand. And it does not Matter Who You Kill, Try to Fire or Who's Character you try to Malign, God Will Always Make Sure that His Truth Will Come Out...And You Can't Lie on Him and Shut Him Up!!!! So, People of God,
During this Black History Month, Keep Your War Clothes On, Get Out and Vote, and Rejoice in The Name of The Lord Jesus Christ. For Because of Our Faith and The Faithfulness of Our Almighty God.....In spite of What is Going on Around You......We Shall Overcome! So Let's Continue to Pray, Stand Up......And Fight!!
Blessings
