It’s Official
By The Cup | November 5th, 2008 | Category: Hot Moca, Politics | No Comments »To all my family and friends:
Today November 5, 2008, being a black man in America has a different feeling, it feels GREAT!!!! Last night reaffirmed what I already knew about our people that we are powerful beyond measure, “we are born to make manifest the power of GOD that is in us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine,we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, Our presence automatically liberates others.”
