Dr. Parson shares from a historical, factual, and biblical view of racism and it's non-effect on the Black American spirit. He takes you back in time highlighting the Black American's ability to overcome, succeed, prosper, and develop independence and wealth during the most difficult time in American history, which was after the Civil War.
