Ryan! Powerful! We love you man!
He is such a sweetheart
This was a refreshing experience. To get insight from someone who has experienced what Brother Ernest did is edifying. To challenge an ideology that unfortunately exists to this day without succumbing to bitterness and hatred is a testament of the strength of the Civil Rights generation.
intro is a vibe
Thank you for having Mr. Green on. I was an 11 year-old from Oregon watching him on TV. I was petrified he would be hurt or killed. Once the event was televised , there was no turning back. What a true patriot, innovator, all around good man. Thank you Mr. Green. ♥️
Inspiring, power to all skin colours, we are ALL equal!
Amen
