“At the same time” - the heartbreakingly beautiful paradox of the Passion

Tomorrow is Good Friday.

Then Easter comes shortly after.

And Jesus went through His Passion to get there.

He sweated blood. He felt more physical pain than any of us could ever know. He felt more internal agony than physical pain. He died and was seemingly defeated.

It is time, it is well past time that the colored black American, man and woman WALK AWAY completely from the DEMOCRAT plantation, that slave plantation for it has done nothing but DESTRUCTION; Trump

I totally agree. Turning Point and Walk Away are doing their best on this.

Everyone should watch this documentary which shows how, despite segregation, black Americans were making incredible achievements in building their own parallel economic systems.

In fact their example should be a template for the parallel systems we need to build today in this post COVID world.
