  • Transition in Progress

    17 NOV 2020 · The peaceful transfer of power is at the very bedrock of our democracy. Since 1801, with the departure of John Adams after being defeated by his friend-turned-rival Thomas Jefferson, each President has learned to pass the baton, turn the page, and allow each chapter of American history to unfold as we the people write it, one vote and one election at a time.

  • One Nation Under God

    13 SET 2020 · Since the inception of America, citizens in classrooms, courtrooms, and legislative bodies have recited the pledge of allegiance to America every single day. In 1954 President Eisenhower encouraged Congress to add the words "under God," creating the 31-word pledge many recite today. In recent years we have witnessed evangelical christian leaders stand behind Donald Trump and many of his ungodly antics, but today we are joined by Bishop C. Anthony Muse to discuss whether or not America can live up to the true meaning of its creed in being: one nation under God.

  • We The People

    6 SET 2020 · At the crossroad of American politics, our nation stands on the precipice of change with an important decision to make in just about 60 days. In the argument of whose America is it, conservatives are using images of protests, riots, and national civil unrest to suggest that chaos is to come if Joe Biden is elected as President. However, pursuant to the Preamble of the US Constitution, America will always belong to "We The People", and protests are at the very bedrock of our democracy!
