Discovering Hidden Truth couldn’t hurt.📖Calling on the Black Church ⛪️ to help make it work👩🏾🏫👨🏾🏫.
In a tightly Concealed era of American History, there has been a barrage of urgency to restrict the teaching of history-altering truths that require quite a few of America’s most notable stories to be revisited for the purposes of factual discovery.
With an abundance of hidden knowledge now successfully surfacing across various social media platforms, there are libraries of undiscovered history that are capable of mentally, physically, and spiritually uplifting African-Americans. Despite many of the mostly unknown tales of triumphant that have been undisclosed involving African American achievement currently being shared throughout the world, there still exists a dire need for American-Americans to accept the responsibilities of creating methods of educating, by organizing and providing a plan for the general instructions of establishing our own educational system that invites the challenges of efficiently educating African-American youth.
On February 18, 2022, The Men Of Color Having Answers Foundation (M.O.C.H.A.), presented a crucial question to African-American churches that are of ultimate importance. 👇🏾
Question presented by The Men Of Color Having Answers Foundation on (2/18/22).
So far The Men Of Color Having Answers Foundations’ question involving the lack of the initiative of Black Churches to self-educate African American youth to the countless history that has been withheld, has been unaddressed.
The truth is, we have never been a helpless race in America and we can no longer waste very valuable time, waiting on Legislative approvals for decisions on advancements in education that we are able to implement on our own. We must open the doors one more time to the church and be welcoming to an entirely new generation of youth who have tirelessly searched for an identity and have been unable to relate to some of the methods that we have chosen to deliver our messages to African-American youth.
My very first memories of attending church service were here at Golden View Baptist Church in Clemson, South Carolina. I always felt like my Grandmother, Mary Peppers, felt like this larger than life sanctuary was her official home.
We must be conscious of the fact that some of our youth simply require an updated message that compliments and validates the religious history that they have long been taught. Without successfully bridging the connections between our youth and our elders, we are not only able to salvage hidden history, but we are also afforded the opportunity to narrate our ancestor’s stories that have been left untold. By being triumphant in linking young African-Americans to those who are wiser due to their life experiences, and by practicing history studies that may or may not be relevant to religion; we are able to successfully preserve African-American heritage while strengthening the culture.
A stunning view of the historic and very elaborate, Golden View Baptist Church, in Clemson, South Carolina.
It is for this reason that I am humbly asking churches nationwide to come together and develop a plan of action that will permit our churches to teach the truth regarding Inspirational African-American History that has been left untold.
These inspirational stories have been deleted from the American history books, and due to their absence, we have left Black children uninspired by the endless stories that are unrelated to their personal struggles. As a result of a nonexistent connection, many Black Youths have abandoned Black Churches.
However, there are several unrevealed historical facts that are able to successfully merge community relationships through religious studies. The assistance of our churches stepping forward to assist with efforts to reteach, relearn, and reeducate African-American youth is priceless. I strongly believe that this solution is achievable considering, our churches are already equipped with some of the same necessities that are afforded to our public schools for transportation purposes. Thankfully, many of our churches are already in possession of buses and vans that are needed, and already performing duties such as transporting dozens of passengers on a weekly basis. Since churches are already a part of a much larger affiliation of individual organizations that are already continentally linked; I do not foresee any major objections to the collaborations of different religious congregations for the purposes of furthering the education of our youth.
The Men Of Color Having Answers Foundation (M.O.C.H.A.), also has intentions of introducing an early educational plan that includes the initiative of establishing nationwide programs that are allowed to inspire and motivate our youth. Programs that focus on minorities and the poor, such as but not limited to, the Head Start program. Helpful institutions such as these and many others could really help to make this task much easier by working to instill a confidence truth in our children while building character and developing self-esteem. We have the ability to make an early difference in each and every one of our youth by making subtle and very minor adjustments in our methods of preparation. A simple modification during storytime at our daycares, early child development centers, and pre-K, can go a long way in assisting with the process of having to develop new strategies for delivering education to our youth. If we start now by focusing on effective measures of educating African American Youth, then the job of having to re-teach our children, decades later, becomes unnecessary.
For example, during scheduled reading times, we have traditionally told fairytale stories to our children, in order to maintain the attention of the youth, but there are so many incredible stories of African-American greatness that are never exposed to our children until they are old enough to conduct personal research of their own. We have the power to change this unfair narrative. I’ve discovered the primary reason that many of our hidden stories are so powerful, is that they are all built off of adversity, so by inspiring our kids by telling these stories of concealed triumph; they are already prepared to start their battles from the point of achievement that has already been conquered by their ancestors. My point is, had the people of the south been educated to the triumphant story of Elizabeth Jennings Graham (the first American Civil Rights Icon) in 1855, then maybe the struggles of the Civil Rights Movement over 100 years later, might not have been so prolonged in the South.
All I’m saying is that our Ancestors were totally prophetic in forecasting that Education was the key, however, we understand today that they were not just speaking of any education but they were telling us that the education of the truth was the key to our official freedom. Now it is our turn to do our part by coming together and the purposes of educating our own children in our churches, just as our Ancestors first successfully achieved.
