If you run from yourself, you will never know who you are. In this episode, I will share why America continues to run from its true identity. How can America be great, if it refuses to acknowledge the cries of its people?

Greatness admits its failures and does whatever is necessary to correct them. U Still Here #socialjustice #civilrights #leadership #americanunity #2gethermovement
