Real Talk

This page is dedicated to discussing important issues and events in the U.S. and throughout the world. Although I approach these issues from a Christian perspective , the blog is a space for everyone to POSITIVELY and RESPECTIVELY voice their opinions. Last, but not least, the goal of this blog is to promote unity, growth, and positive social and political change for the betterment of all human life.

A perspective on "The Passion"

Peace and blessings,

I came across this clip the other day and I thought it was an interesting stance to take on the movie "The Passion of the Christ." In this clip, Cornel West talks about the socio-political contexts of the Roman empire during Jesus' time and the "American" empire today, and how his view the former was not adequately addressed in the film. Enjoy and speekonit...

1) "One Night With the King" - based on the Biblical story of Queen Esther. Check link below.
