He is married to Faya Ora Rose Touré, formerly Rose M. Sanders, and they have three children by birth, four by foster relationship, and many by heart.In 1971, Sanders began what became Chestnut, Sanders, Sanders, Pettaway and Campbell, LLC.

He served as one of three lead counsel in the nationally known $1.2 billion Black Farmers Discrimination Litigation.As a community person, Sanders has helped found and build many organizations and institutions, including the following: Alabama New South Coalition, where he currently is President Emeritus; 21st Century Youth Leadership Movement; Alabama Lawyers Association; Black Belt Human Resources Center; McRae Learning Center; the National Voting Rights Museum and Institute; the Slavery and Civil War Museum; C.A.R.E.

As the final tides of Pride wind down, the alphabet people have truly exposed themselves — both literally and figuratively. This time, a group of Pride marchers was on camera chanting “we're coming for your children.” Now, we've been told that this definitely isn't what those in the LGBT community are trying to do even while they're on video chanting it. Of course, they'll tell you that they're only joking, but one has to wonder if they really are. When you have a group of people unironically wearing satanic merchandise, it's hard to not believe them when they say they're coming for children. Speaking of disasters, Joe Biden continues to be an unmitigated mess. Considering the continued disintegration of Joe's mind and the avalanche of Hunter Biden's crimes, are the Democrats done with Joe Biden? Is the stink around the Biden finally bad enough that they're going to retire him and swap in Gavin Newsom? It seems increasingly likely — maybe even by September. Nancy Pelosi says Republicans don't respect women, which is ironic coming from someone in the party that can't even define what a woman is. There's a new food craze taking over China: eating rocks.

The Marches were ignited by the Death of SCLC local Jimmie Lee JacksonWhat did Jimmie Lee Jackson accomplish?Jimmie Lee Jackson, was a Vietnam veteran, Baptist deacon, activist and martyr of the Civil Rights Movement. Jackson, active in the fight for equal rights, had tried multiple times to register to vote in Alabama and was denied each time.When Jimmie Lee Jackson saw his frail 80-year-old grandfather rudely turned away from the registrar's office in 1962 after attempting to register to vote in Marion, Ala., the young man became angry. He knew he had to join the civil rights movement.On Feb. 18, 1965, he was among more than 200 people participating in a night march in Marion. Before they had walked a block, they were confronted by state troopers and the police chief, who ordered them to disperse.The marchers halted at the chief's order, and suddenly all the streetlights on the square went out. A black minister at the head of the march knelt to pray and was struck on the head by a trooper. Other troopers began swinging their clubs, and the marchers panicked, running for cover.Jackson and his mother huddled for safety in a café. When Jackson's grandfather entered the café bloodied and beaten, the young man tried to take him to a hospital. But they were quickly shoved back by a crowd of club-swinging troopers and terrified marchers.The troopers began knocking out the café lights with their clubs and beating people. Jackson saw a trooper strike his mother, and he lunged for the man. He was clubbed across the face and slammed him into a cigarette machine. Another trooper pulled his pistol and shot Jackson in the stomach. It was two hours before Jackson arrived at the hospital in Selma. He died eight days later.Forty-five years later, former trooper James Bonard Fowler pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of second-degree manslaughter. He was sentenced to six months in jail but was released early due to poor health. Fowler claimed he shot Jackson in self-defense.At one of two services for Jackson, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. told a crowd of 2,000: “Jimmie Lee Jackson's death says to us that we must work passionately and unrelentingly to make the American dream a reality. His death must prove that unmerited suffering does not go unredeemed.”© 2023 Building Abundant Success!!2023 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon Music ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy:  https://tinyurl.com/BASAud

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - Hundreds of thousands of children were abused in the Catholic Church in France over the past 70 years. That's according to a new landmark report detailing the abuse crisis in the French Church. The report said an estimated 216,000 children were abused by priests, deacons, monks or nuns, from 1950 to 2020. The number of abused children jumps to 330,000 when including abuse by other Church workers. Three Swiss Guards have quit their posts, after refusing to comply with the Vatican's COVID-19 vaccine requirement. Three other guards have been suspended until they are fully vaccinated. Vatican City is requiring all employees and visitors to provide proof of vaccination, proof of recovery from the coronavirus, or a recent negative COVID test. The Swiss Guard is requiring all 135 guards to be fully vaccinated. The next World Youth Day will take place August 1-6, 2023, in Lisbon Portugal. Lisbon is about 75 miles from Fatima, one of the most visited Marian pilgrimage sites in the world. Portugal also reportedly has one of the highest levels of weekly Mass attendance among young people in Europe. The last World Youth Day was in 2019, in Panama City. More than 300,000 people participated in a March for Life in Mexico City last weekend. Marchers chanted in the defense of life, and carried posters criticizing the Supreme Court for legalizing abortion, and restricting the right to conscientious objection of health professionals. Today is the Memorial of Saint Mary Faustina Kowalska. Faustina was born in 1905 to a poor but devout Polish family. She entered the convent at the age of 20, and spent time in convents in both Poland and Lithuania. Jesus appeared to Faustina throughout her life, asking her to become an apostle of his mercy, and to commission the painting of an image of his Divine Mercy.

A daily news briefing from Catholic News Agency, powered by artificial intelligence. Ask your smart speaker to play “Catholic News,” or listen every morning wherever you get podcasts. www.catholicnewsagency.com - Poland's March for Life drew 5,000 people this year. The annual march took place in Warsaw Sunday. Marchers carried Poland's red and white flag, and posters with pro-life slogans. This was Poland's first March for Life since Poland's constitutional court ruled against abortion for fetal abnormalities. The ruling is expected to lead to a significant reduction in the number of abortions in Poland. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas said the example of Catholic nuns, and his grandparents, taught him how to navigate and survive the negativity of a segregated world. He said they also taught him that all people were children of God. Thomas is only the second Black Supreme Court justice. He made his comments in a lecture hosted by the University of Notre Dame. The Vatican will require all visitors and personnel to show proof that they are vaccinated against COVID-19, have recovered from COVID-19, or have tested negative for the virus. The new requirement will go into effect beginning October 1st. The rules will apply to any visitors in Vatican territory, including tourists, employees, and officials. In his Angelus address Sunday, Pope Francis said the true measure of success is what someone gives, not what someone has. The pope centered his reflection on the day's Gospel reading from Mark, in which Jesus declares that anyone who wishes to be first shall be last, and the servant of all. Francis said those who wish to follow Jesus must take the path of service. Today, the Church remembers several leaders in the Korean Catholic Church, who were martyred in the late 19th century.

What are you doing right now? Are you eating? Listening to a podcast? Out for a run or a walk? Heading home from work? Ready to fall asleep?  Maybe you are intentionally doing something to nourish your heart, your body, your mind— your self. Maybe some combination of all of the above. I'm writing at home, not thinking about safety. Ahmaud Arbery and Breonna Taylor were doing something ordinary when they were killed. Ahmaud was out for a run, Breonna was asleep. Their lives and deaths bring to mind too many other Black Americans and people of color doing ordinary things in America while facing increasing racial injustice and fear. Almost 65 years ago Rosa Parks wanted to do something ordinary too— sit in her seat on the bus home from work. Despite many decades since the modern civil rights movement, more attention is needed particularly from white and privileged christian communities who have been uneducated and silent.  Remembering Rosa Parks gives us an opportunity to learn and to pay attention to both history and current events. She is relevant in both. It does not need to be Black History Month to focus on Rosa Parks. It does not need to be February. We need Rosa Parks this summer and in every season. Her voice teaches us to be more fully human, honor and love God, and all human beings as ourselves. Rosa Parks invites us to listen, stretch, to become collaborators and to work for justice for everybody. FIRST MOTHER Roll. Roll, Rosa. Roll down, Rosa. Roll down where wheels roll on, Cleveland Avenue bus. Move. Move on, Mother. Move on back. Move back as this driver orders, Montgomery Police bust. Rosa rides the dented yellow, green and white bus home from work where she sews dignified defiance into every garment. Rosa Louise McCauley Parks rides. Sees through sound glasses in 1955, sensible dignity any day in the way she inhabits her rightful vinyl seat. First of December this mother is due. Tonight, she sits unmoved, no stopping here. So still, Rosa. Accepts deep breaths of arrest, receives this moment thrust upon her. Constant kicking, labor, pains, screaming. Undeserved delivery. Giving birth to a boy- cott, Rosa Parks, forbearing mother. Twelve years ago when that same bus driver pushed her off that bus, rain, not justice, rolled down. An ever-flowing stream ran over her, walking, buttoned up topcoat, soaked. What patience courage carries. The face that stops hundreds of busses, moves thousands of feet. Do nothing and change everything. Down the road for such a time as this, Rosa. Awaken the pastor, whose dream will preach. Feel an honest presence. Marchers swelling like an emotional river still. So many motherless. Stillborn, are too many children of God. Console, Rosa. Let my people roll. So far and we are not there yet. Go down, Rosa. Even so, Rosa. This is the long way home. Susan Cunningham ©Susan Haroutunian Cunningham 2019
