HC one of our local newspapers did a huge article on my pastor today.
HC y'all already know about my pastor and all of his legal "issues".
HC the cover of the paper has this big ole picture of him and it says "Holy High Roller".
HC here's the link http://www.coastweekly.com
HC I'm the person who helped arrange the press interviews.
HC the guy who wrote the article doesn't completely understand the culture of the black church and it's evident in his writing.
HC he portrayed the women cooking in the kitchen like they were "mammys".
HC he cited people shouting out "amen and hallelujah" in church like it was some kind of minstrel show.
HC I'm feeling a bit "Bamboozled".

HC I just finished reading the article and felt somewhat of the same feelings as Soror Prayerfull felt?
HC this is yet another reason why we need more people of color working in all facets of media?
