Intelligence is mandatory as we make sense of the words that have been used against us. Killing Cliches is a platform where words are defined by the author, and where cliches are examined by the light of the truth. These cliches are found everywhere, but they are perpetuated through politics and religion. These conversations are meant to enlighten and to bring a spiritual clarity to the discussion. Therefore, you will hear commentary on the state of black people, positive affirmations, meditations, and perhaps even songs of encouragement. "Killing cliches enroute to the truth."
