Queen’s Chronicle: A Labor of Black Love
Uplifting Black people out of not only financial poverty but spiritual poverty is truly a labor of Black love. Many have been taught not to believe that we are beautiful, intelligent and powerful. This used to be done in an overt manner but now it is covert via the media-both mainstream and social. Therefore, people buy into imagery that lures them away from taking pride in uplifting themselves and their own communities. Therefore, as a leader, one has to be careful about who is with you as you go about the work that must be done “And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you.”

GOD repeated to me, “I am in the grassroots.”
