Discussion: When you are a truthteller, there will always be things working to silence and discourage you. The one consistent thing you will notice in your life is that people will seemingly be able to tell lies about your character and defame your name, without you being able to defend yourself. Anybody can tell the truth, but truth tellers change atmospheres and uncover. And that will make people upset, and cause certain powers to actively work in your life in a way to keep you silent, or put you down when you have the courage to speak up.  Katt Williams, Cedric the Entertainer, Steve Harvey, Dee Ray Davis, Big Worm, Faison Love, Rickey Smiley, Kountry Wayne, Club Shay Shay, Dave Chappelle, Shannon Sharpe Scripture mentioned  "He that is first in his own cause seemeth just; but his neighbor cometh and searcheth him."

Please give me a little grace, as I was rushing to get my thoughts out, due to being short on recording time.  Purchase A More Accurate Definition of Racism Thoughts, concerns, comments?
