Qu’est-ce qui pousse à porter une ceinture ou une cage de chasteté ?

Il existe différentes raisons pour utiliser une ceinture de chasteté. Pour certaines personnes, elle sert à renforcer l’autodiscipline et à maîtriser la sexualité masculine (érection, masturbation, etc.). Ce dispositif peut accentuer l’excitation au sein de relations sexuelles de domination. D’autres l’utilisent pour garantir la fidélité dans leur couple en empêchant toute possibilité d’infidélité physique. Ce dispositif peut être considéré comme une forme de défi où la restriction et l’attente exacerbent l’excitation et le désir.

Comment déterminer la taille appropriée pour une cage de chasteté ?

Lors de l’emploi d’une ceinture de chasteté, il est important de suivre certaines précautions. Il est important de conserver une hygiène stricte pour prévenir les infections. Il faut retirer la cage régulièrement pour contrôler la condition de la peau et réaliser un nettoyage complet. Pour que la pratique se déroule bien, il est important de discuter avec le coach, dont l’expérience permet d’anticiper les changements.

En quoi consiste le fonctionnement d’une cage de chasteté ?

Une cage de chasteté fonctionne de manière assez simple, reposant sur un principe de confinement sécurisé. Comment procéder à l’installation d’une cage de chasteté : L’anneau de base est placé autour de la base du pénis et derrière les testicules en premier. On positionne ensuite le tube sur le pénis avant de l’insérer dans la cage. Sécurisation du dispositif : Après avoir installé le tube, on insère les tiges de connexion pour joindre l’anneau de base à la cage. Pour finir, le dispositif est verrouillé avec le verrou. La cage reste en place grâce au verrou, qui ne permet son retrait que si le détenteur de la clé la déverrouille.

Explorez le lien entre l’homme et la chasteté.

De nombreux hommes choisissent la chasteté comme règle de vie. À notre époque, la chasteté se vit dans la discrétion. Cette page sous divers angles. Cela cache le fait que de nombreux hommes utilisent une cage de chasteté. Sous ses vêtements, l’homme cache l’entrave de son sexe. Cela l’empêche de se masturber. Il n’est plus soumis à ses pulsions animales, mais aux directives d’un coach. Sans accessoire de chasteté pour retenir sa verge et ses testicules, l’homme se masturbe aisément. Cela est tout à fait naturel. Dans le monde moderne, l’homme est constamment soumis à l’excitation. Il peut se concentrer, mais les sollicitations incessantes de la publicité, du cinéma, de la musique et autres le rattrapent. La seule option qu’il considère est de céder à une autorité supérieure qui prend en main son sexe et la rétention de sa semence. La pratique de la chasteté conduit à une amélioration notable des performances et de la réussite chez les hommes. Sportif, étudiant ou cadre, ressentir une contrainte sur ses organes génitaux via un accessoire induit un état psychologique différent de celui généré par la masturbation libre ou la sexualité sans contrôle.

Quelle influence la pratique de la chasteté exerce-t-elle sur la relation entre deux personnes ?

La chasteté peut influencer profondément la dynamique d’une relation amoureuse. Elle peut renforcer la confiance et la communication, en encourageant les partenaires à explorer de nouvelles formes d’intimité. Pour certains couples, elle permet de découvrir une nouvelle complicité et excitation, en élargissant et enrichissant la sexualité. Une gestion adéquate de la chasteté peut en faire un puissant levier pour renforcer les relations et découvrir de nouvelles facettes de celle-ci.

Quels effets positifs découle de la chasteté?

La chasteté, souvent pratiquée avec l’aide de dispositifs comme les cages de chasteté, peut offrir plusieurs avantages, tant sur le plan personnel que relationnel. Grâce à la pratique de la chasteté, on peut accroître son autodiscipline et se concentrer sur des aspects plus importants de la vie. Elle peut également renforcer l’anticipation et le désir sexuel, rendant les moments d’intimité plus intenses. Dans une relation de couple, la chasteté favorise une meilleure communication et une plus grande complicité. En se concentrant sur des gestes d’affection non sexuels, les partenaires peuvent explorer de nouvelles façons de se connecter sur le plan émotionnel et d’enrichir leur relation.

Quelles sont les différentes parties d’une cage de chasteté ?

Une cage de chasteté est un dispositif dont le but est de bloquer l’accès au pénis, généralement utilisé pour modérer le plaisir sexuel masculin ou pour renforcer la discipline. Voici les principales composantes d’une cage de chasteté : Le tube, qui peut aussi être appelé cage, est la composante principale du mécanisme. C’est dans cette section que le pénis est enfermé. Le tube est habituellement conçu pour épouser la forme du pénis au repos, garantissant un maintien à la fois confortable et limité. Les tubes peuvent être faits d’acier, de plastique ou de silicone, chaque matériau ayant ses propres avantages relatifs à la qualité, au confort, à la sécurité et à l’hygiène. L’anneau de base est une pièce fondamentale du système. Il se place autour de la base du pénis et derrière les testicules. Il se relie au tube pour maintenir la cage en place et empêcher tout retrait non autorisé. Les anneaux sont offerts en plusieurs tailles pour assurer un ajustement confortable à l’utilisateur, sans serrer trop fort. Le verrou est utilisé pour sécuriser la cage contre l’anneau de base. Il y a divers types de verrous, des cadenas métalliques classiques aux dispositifs en plastique plus subtils. Lorsque le verrou est en place, le dispositif ne peut être retiré sans la clé, garantissant que l’utilisateur reste en état de chasteté. Les tiges de connexion, également appelées espaçeurs, assurent la liaison entre l’anneau de base et le tube. Elles servent à régler l’écart entre l’anneau et la cage, assurant un ajustement confortable et personnalisé. Ces espaçeurs sont souvent proposés en diverses longueurs pour permettre un réglage optimal selon la morphologie individuelle. Des mesures telles que la longueur de la verge et les diamètres de la base du pénis doivent être prises pour assurer un bon ajustement. Des ailettes anti-recul, ou petites extensions internes, sont intégrées dans certaines cages de chasteté pour éviter tout mouvement arrière du pénis. Cette amélioration de sécurité rend le retrait du pénis quasiment impossible.

Utilisation et port de la cage de chasteté :

La cage de chasteté, une fois fixée, empêche les érections complètes et limite l’accès au pénis. Cela permet de contrôler l’activité sexuelle, que ce soit en solitaire ou sous la surveillance d’un partenaire. Maintenir une hygiène adéquate est crucial lorsque l’on porte la cage. La plupart des cages sont conçues pour permettre la miction sans devoir retirer le dispositif, mais il est vital de nettoyer régulièrement pour éviter les irritations et infections. La cage ne peut être retirée qu’en utilisant la clé pour déverrouiller le dispositif et enlever l’anneau de base ainsi que le tube. Il est conseillé de vérifier l’état de la peau et la circulation sanguine après chaque utilisation prolongée. Malgré sa complexité, une cage de chasteté est un dispositif efficace pour les personnes qui choisissent de pratiquer la chasteté. En comprenant les différentes parties et en utilisant correctement la cage, on peut intégrer cette pratique de manière sécurisée et confortable dans sa vie personnelle ou en couple.

Retranscription des paroles de la vidéo: [Music] n aah [Music] ahahahahahahahahah [Applause] [Music] hello everyone and welcome again to another edition of the Chris recorder dialogues I am excited here to be with my colleague the Reverend Dr Mark Kelly Tyler on his maiden voyage here with us sharing on this platform we have an exciting discussion today with you very timely discussion as we commemorate the 39th president of the United States re um about to say Reverend President James Earl Carter as of note we also have a special p a special article that was written by Clarence white that you’ll be seeing in the February recorder so we want you to look out for that but again thank you for being with us at this time we’re excited for the discussion and colleague Dr Tyler please take take it away thank you so very much to the editor of the Christian recorder John Thomas we want to thank you and want to thank your team uh for putting this on for us and allowing this format to be available to the office of the historiographer also we want to thank our chair for uh our shared chairperson uh Bishop Francine brookens the 141st Bishop of the am church and also Bishop of the fifth district we’re hoping that she’ll be able to join us this evening uh we have we had to record this because we wanted to make sure that we got it right for you all but as we are recording today uh this day the wildfires in California have already taken off and I suspect that this will still be a major story next week by the time this actually airs so we’re praying uh for her and for the people of the fifth district and certainly hopeful that she will uh be able to join us if possible but if not again our prayers are with her in the district on the evening as John said we’re here to remember the 39th president of the United States uh affectionately known by all of us as Jimmy Carter a person who Rose through the ranks uh out of the most unlikely of unlikely places to become president of the United States Naval career uh governor of Georgia and then later president of the United States even earning the Nobel Peace Prize but this evening we want to talk about the influence of the African Methodist Episcopal Church on that Stellar career of his one of the things that has constantly stayed with me in this last week is how much people have placed a focus on the faith of President Carter Sunday school teacher a person who was motivated to help Habitat for Humanity not just because it’s a good thing but because of his faith well many of you would be surprised to know that there is a serious am connection to that Faith story and to help us tell it tonight we have three wonderful guests on this program we’re going to hear first from the Reverend Germaine Harris who was the pastor of Allan am Church in Americus Georgia uh which is not too far from Plains we’re also going to hear from the Reverend Tracy Blackman who is uh no stranger to any of us she is a daughter of the am church now serving in the UCC but she is one of the most outspoken social justice leaders of our time and we also have a good friend and big brother in Ministry retired presiding Elder of the in the first Episcopal District the Reverend Dr alvan Johnson who um I’m gonna save his relationship and connection to this story for just a few minutes kind of like string you all along so let’s get into this uh first of all Reverend Harris who is a native himself of uh Stewart County Georgia attended Fort Valley State and Georgia Southwestern uh State University he loves am history um I’m gonna we’re going to duut uh an associate historiographer of the am Church down in Southwest Georgia for all the work you’ve been doing now get this folks he invited me to preach in Americas which has his own powerful history a couple of months ago and one of the things he kept saying to me is it’s near where president Carter grew up and it’s got all this history I want to take you to the cemetery I want to show you all of this stuff and the first person I thought about when I heard the sad news of the passing of the president was Reverend Harris and I picked up the phone and reached out to him so Reverend Harris welcome uh to the Christian record live in the office of the historiographer Come on talk to us about the area where you serve where President Carter grew up uh archery Georgia just give us an idea and a description of how close these places are and where they are kind of use Atlanta as the as the kind of the compass the Northstar for all of us folk who don’t know anything about Georgia other than Atlanta okay uh thank you uh doc Dr Tyler we are uh grateful for this opportunity just to spread the history of of of the area of the Southwest Georgia conference um Atlanta is um maybe two and a half hours from SAA County which is um the county um uh seat is America Georgia um also um PLS is about 9 miles um um West um Southwest of um well west of uh Americas and then archery is maybe about three miles um uh to your to your west of uh Plains um the connections um there in Southwest Georgia uh conference fora County um we have um Bishop uh John brigh um who is uh U what’s born down in America’s Georgia uh Campell chaper em Church um many others who um came through and with uh President Carter um we have um um seen the relationship and as you would hear a little a bit later um how the am Church connects to President Carter so that’s kind of a brief overview of um where we are located in in Southwest Georgia um uh two and a half hours um um south of Atlanta um maybe in between um uh Columbus and Albany um ala Georgia is uh 31 miles south of of Americas and Columbus Georgia is 60 miles and then Mak Georgia is um 70 miles um kind of northeast of of um Americas and planes and uh archery so one of the persons thank you for that overview Reverend Harris one of the persons that uh Clarence white was going to talk about we couldn’t get him on but as John mentioned we have his article it’ll be in the Christian recorder um he’s morehous grad grew up in elville he did uh but one of the people he talked about was his former Pastor Reverend Raven who is now I believe 98 years old and was a very close friend of re of I’m like John out Reverend Carter may as well have been Reverend president but President Carter can you talk do you know anything about that relationship yes um the Ravens uh grew up in the archery um um as well as uh president uh Carter and all of them all the Ravens and the weight Fields um and uh Elder retired presign Elder Johnny Raven uh who is still living and uh often comes to uh the Southwest Georgia annual conference uh we was uh fortunate enough to uh host the conference um last year uh after 20 years uh um um not coming to uh s County uh we was finally able to uh host the 128th session of the Southwest Georgia anual conference and um the retired Pella Janet Raven walks through the door he is a humble giant um he has a um um big connection to um the Carters um and uh I’m just so blessed to be in his his presence and every time I see him I I just thank him for um all his leadership and if you ever been around uh Elder Raven he is a humble giant um not only in uh stter County but in the Southwest Georgia conference and the south Georgia conference and the six EP principal District well I think that so listen I I want to believe that the relationship with Reverend Raven was probably easy uh not just because they were neighbors but also because of the ways in which uh President Carter admired and looked up to the am Church in some ways that people are tonight are about to learn so we got a short video uh very very short about a minute long uh from a CBS news story about that connection and then we’re going to go to our next guest uh retired presiding Elder alvan Johnson but uh if we can get the uh video played I think this will um give some folks some new information and new insight Jimmy Carter recruited Tony Lowden to come to his hometown Church Louden answered the call and the two formed a special bond how tough is this time for you not only have I been able to be as pastor but it’s tough for me because he’s also my friend Lowden recalled being especially moved by a trip they made together to a historically black cemetery near Plains the A’s are pushing his wheelchair and he’s in the son the hot son pointing out that headstone right there is Bishop William Decker Johnson African-American am Bishop who introduced me to Christ that here’s a father and son who the father served in World War I and the son served in World War II this Cemetery where African-Americans have spilled blood and built Georgia and fought for this nation you know some in today’s politics Will Call that being woke but he was aware and in recent weeks ladden told us he’s been visiting with the former president who shared this advice for him and all of us don’t get weary Don’t Be Afraid don’t give up cuz this is a great nation don’t get weary don’t give up all right so now who is Bishop William deer Johnson you might ask uh for those of you who skipped out on am history I’ll tell you was he’s the grandfather of our next guest Reverend Dr alvan Johnson retired presiding Elder uh up here in the first district where it’s mighty cold on today uh Reverend Johnson I think you might I hope you’re not muted but let me just ask you looking at that video hearing that preacher and seeing your grandfather’s Tombstone just talk to us about this moment right here we’re going to talk about other things but just how are you feeling right now I feel feel um honor for first off let me say uh Reverend Dr Tyler thank you for including me in this session uh and it’s just how amazing things come together because uh William Decker Johnson’s son William Decker Jr was the editor of the am review the Chris yeah am review and so um it’s all tying together I feel as though I’m grateful that the am Church helped to Fashion the career of such a really a a giant whose Faith over overshadowed the rest of this political Mala that we’re in but I’m honored that our family and African Methodist Episcopal Church helped to shape who Jimmy Carter is and who he was well well let me ask you this all right so some people have to just ask the question so when your grandfather died Jimmy Carter was only 12 years old so this means he was like so he’s a young boy neighbor um can you talk about the proximity of where your grandfather lived to the Carter uh Farm as well just you know give us a little background absolutely I’d be glad to um my grandfather was born and excuse me he was born in 1869 and uh he was the son of uh EXs slaves who had just been Freed at the beginning of the Civil War and they had a commitment to the church to Christ and to education and so my grandfather Rose to be the 42 Bishop of the African Methodist Episcopal church now Bishop Johnson’s farm was a Peanut Farm in Plains Georgia right next door to the Carter Farm the only difference is that being an AM Bishop Bishop Johnson’s farm was larger than the Carter Farm much larger and as a result uh Carter’s father and my grandfather became he really respected that a black man had achieved that much and of course you and I know that in those days Black Folk had to go to the back door but my grandfather was the only black person in Plains that could go through the Carter’s front door so he really had the highest respect for Bishop Johnson and so it wasn’t necessarily the after Bishop Johnson then influenced Carter’s father that my father uh Alvin senior uh and Jimmy Carter became best friends they grew up together they were educated um at the same time and of course it was segregation back then but Carter went to the academy the Naval Academy and my father went to the Navy and the Navy sent him to uh Boston and so he went to tus University there in Boston so the issue is that Carter and my father were very best friends but it was the influence of Bishop Johnson that made all of them really love the Lord love the church embedded in them their love for the church and for the Lord my my my grandfather had three sons Simeon who became a colonel in the AM church and uh William Decker Jr who became the editor of the am review and my father who built uh wil’s Chapel in uh Tulsa the issue is that was my grandfather’s influence over Carter’s father and really impacted Carter himself and my father the two of them grew up and loved the church and so it’s because of Bishop Johnson’s influence over the Caris with the Caris in with the influence that Jimmy Carter then not only taught Sunday school he loved the church was in it every single Sunday if he was anywhere in vicinity he was in church and so it’s because of um Bishop Johnson M who I might add um brought a a college into uh into existence called Johnson home industrial college that my grandfather influenced the Carters influenced all of the people in that Plains area in archeries which is really a suburb they’re really right there together but it was my father’s my grandfather’s farm and his influence that really impacted the spirituality he impacted the spirituality of James Earl Carter so oh so first of all this is I know I’m I can’t be by myself just in awe and I’ve talked to you already this week but even hearing more of this is just amazing um re Dr Tracy Blackman founder and CEO of Hope builds LLC a former associate uh General Minister Justice and local Church Ministries in the United Church of Christ the UCC social justice Warrior and became a I don’t know it’s a friend mentee but developed a relationship with President Carter you’re hearing this now Dr Blackman what are it has to have you like me kind of just rethinking a lot about Jimmy Carter can you talk to this because you’re a daughter of the am Church you know our social justice St you know all of that yeah how is this Landing with you well first thank you for having me Dr Tyler and congratulations on the new position in the AM Church um I’m listening to this story just fascinated and realizing that it makes a lot of things um makes sense I’m here in DC uh for the funeral of President Carter and today I spent time with some people that were uh chosen by him and his family to have a private viewing uh in the retunda uh today where his body lays in Repose um and in those conversations it it was um a couple of things happened and and I will tie them into what we’re talking about uh one was to stand in the retunda uh with this group of people and realize that everyone standing it was about a dozen of us that everyone standing there were people who spent their lives helping and serving others um it it was really a statement to who he is and What mattered to him uh that he wanted to be surrounded even in his passing by people who saw the need to help others as a way uh to be the best person that you could be and so when I listened to that kind of ethos which wasn’t just something that he talked about it was it was something that uh President Carter embodied um he is a president who I believe could have had a second term but wasn’t willing to compromise his Integrity to do so uh he’s a person whose Faith was first and foremost for him he built over thousands of home for Habitat Humanity and in his post presidency uh life he did even greater things for Global Peace and Global Health uh he won the Nobel Peace Prize for his interventions with Israel and Egypt and his Global International Peace work is why he won that Peace Prize and so to listen to this story this um sense and allegiance to Liberation and seeing all people I was talking to one of his um staff today who worked very closely with him on women’s rights and she revealed that in his latter days he focused primarily in African uh countries we don’t talk about that a lot um but he brought a wisdom and great respect and great love for the people of the mother cont continent of into conversation whether he flew them to to the cter center or whether he went where they were um and that was fascinating to me because because he’s hundred years old I didn’t think that he would have grown up with any inclinations such as that and hearing this story makes it make sense because his roots are found in those that he wanted to later have an impact um in the betterment of their lives and the seeing of their value and their Brilliance so I’m just in awe of hearing this story to tell you the truth so so so first of all thank you for taking time out on today be with us because we know that they’re probably pulling you every which way they’re in DC um so so Dr Blackman I was listening today to um his acceptance speech when he was elected governor in 1970 of Georgia and he’s and he went on this riff about that you know we have to end bigotry and hatred and racial hatred I mean he just went on this long kind of thing and I guess for some people they may have thought it was just you know things a politician says because it’s know you want to get votes but hearing it after hearing this story the last few days it it spoke to me like I’m wondering he he must have been thinking and like picturing people that he knew personally uh as he’s talking about this story um do you kind of see like you know his faith how did it play into how he understood race and you know moving this country forward especially given the current attacks on everything from Dei to anything that looks like it is an attempt to be fair and write the wrong of the past I absolutely see that and to hear Reverend Dr um Johnson talk about his grandfa and their Farm being right next door to the Carter farm and being the larger Farm uh and them having authentic relationship there you know we all know that relationship is what changes the world uh it’s not rhetoric it’s not law it’s relationships when you meet people that contradict the things that you’ve been told about them then it changes you forever and hearing this story just makes me love Jimmy Carter more but but also recognize it helps me to recognize the power of the strong power of what the am church has been doing in loud and quiet ways for a very long time you’re talking um when Reverend Johnson said how old uh his grandfather was uh I’m like I was born in in 1963 and he said 1865 that was so many years ago right that he was already making a difference in um in the lives of black people and obviously in the lives of white people too um because he knew that his grandfather must have known that we all need each other um and those examples of love and those examples of acceptance and doing things the right way I am sure what 100% sure influenced Jimmy Carter who chose his faith over everything else wow that that’s amazing you know as I was thinking Reverend Harris um kind of bring you in here that and Reverend black you just touched right on it right so Jimmy Carter’s born in 1924 so you have Bishop William Decker Johnson who is the son of enslaved people so from his life he goes back deep into the 1800s with people who influenced and touched him and going forward with Jimmy Carter who lives a hundred years I mean you span the 1800s the 1900s and deep into the 2000s with these two individuals who as you said authentically knew each other and the kind of influence that lasted a 100y year Rel you know influence over somebody Reverend Harris what I mean how are people in America Georgia AR planes uh elville in that area how are they kind of remembering this moment and and thinking about it um they are just uh Overjoyed by you know um uh President Carter in uh stter county is um he is a figure that will live on forever um um we are just blessed um to uh have just been in his presence uh for as um people who are talking um church members uh Community the Habitat for Humanity um which is located in the in Americas um they are just um know everyone just have nothing but good things to say about uh President Carter if you would go back um um he went to Georgia Southwest in his first year um and then he went on to uh the Navy Academy but uh the people are you know just just blessed to you know and and and they are Overjoyed by the fact that he never lost a sense of where he is from and and that’s that’s very important um to um the community as well he always um made certain that he uh recognize uh PLS uh in s County um uh in the area Southwest Georgia um as his home um he did not leave and and once he um retired and came back to PLS and and um would teach uh Sunday school um every Sunday when he was able and people from all over came to uh to his Sunday school class so uh the people are something kind of you know they are just um um thankful and and grateful for his contribution that he brought a light to to the community of of S County and and they got something to be proud of well listen speaking of being proud I think as you know am and as you know person who came out of the am tradition it gives us A Renewed sense you know we we talk we off still am Mark you can claim me all right you I don’t want you UCC people running me down on the street you trying to take Tracy Blackman from us yeah but does I mean like this is for anybody I mean I don’t know how you feel but you know we get so many bad news stories that we often forget to lift up these important stories and I mean I would imagine there are thousands of stories like these uh it just gives me such a sense of hope and as a preacher I’ll tell you that like sometimes you think maybe you don’t see the crowd that you want and you kind of wonder about your influence like could Bishop William johnon William Decker johnsson think in the 1920s talking to this little white kid next door and talking to him about Christ that it could have such a huge influence that he’s talking to a future president who will have a world platform it’s just it’s it’s mindboggling to me um Reverend Johnson does your family how does your family hold this story I mean how did you yeah what do you all think about it just as a family like you know this is incredible it is it is incredible I want to thank goodness for my my uh sister who uh has done incredible amounts of research on Bishop uh Johnson but the main thing that really impacts us is that with so much hatred in the world and so many people taught to hate each other simply because of melanin In Their Skin and other fictitious IDE because there’s no such thing as race however the Carter overcame that hatred and uh it can be overcome and influence uh people to on to Greatness and so we’re very proud of the fact that Bishop Johnson and his influence over Jimmy Carter and my own father the the projected them into into greatness and so one one of the and I think it’s ironic because Jimmy Carter became a submarine he was a genius at the nuclear weaponry and my father helped to build the the submarines that Carter that Carter uh Captain so it was it’s just very very interesting that our family our Heritage and the African Methodist Episcopal Church helped to overcome racial hatred and project people into greatness such as Jimmy Carter oh that’s a great word thank you for that message all right let me give uh also Reverend Harris and then Reverend Blackman a closing word as well Reverend Harris anything you want to like um anything that just kind of hits you in this moment well I’m just uh grateful to be a part of of of this history um the am church has um really have um a major influence in sta County um so many um great um uh people who have who have March through S County and just to hear uh Dr Johnson um I am Overjoyed by by the stories and um and just so grateful in the words of uh President Carter uh one of the uh the mayor uh lee kennelman who is the mayor of America was a social studies uh teacher in the U late 90s early 2000 did a documentary uh on uh archery and one of the things that he interviewed President Carter at that time and President Carter um U talked about uh how um his father would take them the St Mark am Church in archery and when Bishop Johnson came home and he was just fascinated over the fact that you know Bishop Johnson was uh such an intelligent um um preacher but also he said he could relate to the sharecroppers as well so he could talk the the slang and and kind of bring uh bring everything together and and and Bridge everything uh he can walk with Kings but he also can uh have the common touch for those who may have not been um educated at the time and and made them feel a part as well and that’s um is coming uh from President Carter in an interview he did over 25 years ago and uh I’m just so uh grateful that um I can share um that story also and I’m just Geor just to be in the Pres of um Bishop Johnson’s grandson and um just just grateful to hear all the stories and I would like to hear much more from him as well wonderful wonderful so Dr Blackman um you know last words I know yeah I mean just how how are you feeling what are you thinking and if there’s anything that else that happened at the funeral you want to share with us that you know in this moment because we’re kind of living by Carly through your presence there well the the funeral is tomorrow um and we have to be downstairs at 6:30 so I’m going to bed pretty soon um but what really resonates with me right now uh Reverend Dr Tyler in one of my earlier visits with you when you at mother bethl and you told the story of going into St George I’ve never forgotten that story um and as I listened uh to both Reverend Harris and and uh Reverend son speaking here um I I am struck by the comments that have been made about the simpleness of Jimmy Carter’s funeral his uh coffin is just a wooden coffin with a flag draped over it that’s all he wanted um and I think that his connections that were made in Plains Georgia Beyond his own immediate family uh with the am family uh are best served in the Testament that a man who has served this nation in the highest office possible who is expected and owed uh a king’s burial who has Place reserved for him in Arington because that’s where our presidents go will leave DC tomorrow after this funeral to be buried in Plains next to his wife he wanted to be buried at home and as this inauguration approaches one that he did all he could do to make have a different outcome one where he voted for kamla Harris publicly stating so and when that didn’t work out offered his congratulations to President elect Trump because he is a man of character and integrity and understands the Office of the President as that looms and he has transitioned to another place I know it’s pretty Petty of me but I think he has the last word in that the stat the flag of the United States will fly at half mass for 30 days because the president Jimmy Carter has died which means that it will be at half Mass when the next inauguration comes and the fact that he is leaving here and going back to Plains Georgia for me is his way of saying under the shadow of the Civil Rights Movement where in Memphis Dr King would have been marching with sanitation workers who say I am a man it is Jimmy Carter’s way of saying I am only a man and I’m grateful for the impact that the am church had

0.47 Rose through the ranks uh out of the
0.47 most unlikely of unlikely places to
0.47 become president of the United States
0.47 Naval career uh governor of Georgia and
0.47 then later president of the United
0.47 States even earning the Nobel Peace
0.47 Prize but this evening we want to talk
0.47 about the influence of the African
0.47 Methodist Episcopal Church on that
0.47 Stellar career of his one of the things
0.47 that has constantly stayed with me in
0.47 this last week is how much people have
0.47 placed a focus on the faith of President
0.47 Carter Sunday school teacher a person
0.47 who was motivated to help Habitat for
0.47 Humanity not just because it&;s a good
0.47 thing but because of his faith well many
0.47 of you would be surprised to know that
0.47 there is a serious am connection to that
0.47 Faith story and to help us tell it
0.47 tonight we have three wonderful guests
0.47 on this program we&;re going to hear
0.47 first from the Reverend Germaine Harris

0.47 from the Reverend Tracy Blackman who is
0.47 uh no stranger to any of us she is a
0.47 daughter of the am church now serving in

0.47 and it&;s got all this history I want to

0.47 seen the relationship and as you would
0.47 hear a little a bit later
0.47 um how the am Church connects to
0.47 President Carter so that&;s kind of a
0.47 brief overview of um where we are

0.47 Columbus and Albany um ala Georgia is uh
0.47 31 miles south of of Americas and
0.47 Columbus Georgia is 60 miles and then
0.47 Mak Georgia is um 70 miles um kind of
0.47 northeast of of um Americas and planes
0.47 and uh
0.47 archery so one of the persons thank you
0.47 for that overview Reverend Harris one of
0.47 the persons that uh Clarence white was
0.47 going to talk about we couldn&;t get him
0.47 on but as John mentioned we have his
0.47 article it&;ll be in the Christian
0.47 recorder um he&;s morehous grad grew up
0.47 in elville he did uh but one of the
0.47 people he talked about was his former
0.47 Pastor Reverend Raven who is now I
0.47 believe 98 years old and was a very
0.47 close friend of re of I&;m like John out
0.47 Reverend Carter may as well have been
0.47 Reverend president but President Carter
0.47 can you talk do you know anything about
0.47 that relationship yes um the Ravens uh
0.47 grew up in the archery um um as well as
0.47 uh president uh Carter and all of them
0.47 all the Ravens and the weight Fields um
0.47 and uh Elder retired presign Elder
0.47 Johnny Raven uh who is still living and
0.47 uh often comes to uh the Southwest
0.47 Georgia annual conference uh we was uh
0.47 fortunate enough to uh host the
0.47 conference um last year uh after 20
0.47 years uh um um not coming to uh s County
0.47 uh we was finally able to uh host the
0.47 128th session of the Southwest Georgia
0.47 anual conference and um the retired
0.47 Pella Janet Raven walks through the door
0.47 he is a humble giant um he has a um um
0.47 big connection to um the Carters um and
0.47 uh I&;m just so blessed to be in his his
0.47 presence and every time I see him I I
0.47 just thank him for um all his leadership
0.47 and if you ever been around uh Elder
0.47 Raven he is a humble giant um not only
0.47 in uh stter County but in the Southwest
0.47 Georgia conference and the south Georgia
0.47 conference and the six EP principal
0.47 District well I think that so listen I I
0.47 want to believe that the relationship
0.47 with Reverend Raven was probably easy uh
0.47 not just because they were neighbors but
0.47 also because of the ways in which uh
0.47 President Carter admired and looked up
0.47 to the am Church in some ways that
0.47 people are tonight are about to learn so
0.47 we got a short video uh very very short
0.47 about a minute long uh from a CBS news
0.47 story about that connection and then
0.47 we&;re going to go to our next guest uh
0.47 retired presiding Elder alvan Johnson
0.47 but uh if we can get the uh video played
0.47 I think this will um give some folks
0.47 some new information and new
0.47 insight Jimmy Carter recruited Tony
0.47 Lowden to come to his hometown Church
0.47 Louden answered the call and the two
0.47 formed a special bond how tough is this
0.47 time for you not
0.47 only have I been able to be as pastor
0.47 but it&;s tough for me because he&;s also
0.47 my friend Lowden recalled being
0.47 especially moved by a trip they made
0.47 together to a historically black
0.47 cemetery near Plains the A&;s are pushing
0.47 his wheelchair and he&;s in the son the
0.47 hot son pointing out that headstone
0.47 right there is Bishop William Decker
0.47 Johnson
0.47 African-American am Bishop who
0.47 introduced me to
0.47 Christ that here&;s a father and son who
0.47 the father served in World War I and the
0.47 son served in World War II this Cemetery
0.47 where African-Americans have spilled
0.47 blood and built Georgia and fought for
0.47 this nation
0.47 you know some in today&;s politics Will
0.47 Call that being
0.47 woke but he was aware and in recent
0.47 weeks ladden told us he&;s been visiting
0.47 with the former president who shared
0.47 this advice for him and all of us don&;t
0.47 get
0.47 weary Don&;t Be
0.47 Afraid don&;t give
0.47 up cuz this is a great nation
0.47 don&;t get weary don&;t give up all right
0.47 so now who is Bishop William deer
0.47 Johnson you might ask uh for those of
0.47 you who skipped out on am history I&;ll
0.47 tell you was he&;s the grandfather of our
0.47 next guest Reverend Dr alvan Johnson
0.47 retired presiding Elder uh up here in
0.47 the first district where it&;s mighty
0.47 cold on today uh Reverend Johnson I
0.47 think you might I hope you&;re not muted
0.47 but let me just ask you looking at that
0.47 video hearing that preacher and seeing
0.47 your grandfather&;s Tombstone just talk
0.47 to us about this moment right here we&;re
0.47 going to talk about other things but
0.47 just how are you feeling right
0.47 now I feel feel um honor for first off
0.47 let me say uh Reverend Dr Tyler thank
0.47 you for including me in this session uh
0.47 and it&;s just how amazing things come
0.47 together because uh William Decker
0.47 Johnson&;s son William Decker Jr was the
0.47 editor of the am review the Chris yeah
0.47 am review and so um it&;s all tying
0.47 together I feel as though I&;m grateful
0.47 that the am Church helped to Fashion the
0.47 career of such a really a a giant whose
0.47 Faith over
0.47 overshadowed the rest of this
0.47 political Mala that we&;re in but I&;m
0.47 honored that our family and African
0.47 Methodist Episcopal Church helped to
0.47 shape who Jimmy Carter is and who he was
0.47 well well let me ask you this all right
0.47 so some people have to just ask the
0.47 question so when your grandfather died
0.47 Jimmy Carter was only 12 years old so
0.47 this means he was like so he&;s a young
0.47 boy neighbor um can you talk about the
0.47 proximity of where your grandfather
0.47 lived to the Carter uh Farm as well just
0.47 you know give us a little background
0.47 absolutely I&;d be glad to um my
0.47 grandfather was born
0.47 and excuse me he was born in
0.47 1869 and uh he was the son of uh EXs
0.47 slaves who had just been Freed at the
0.47 beginning of the Civil War and they had
0.47 a commitment to the church to Christ and
0.47 to education and so my grandfather Rose
0.47 to be the 42 Bishop of the African
0.47 Methodist Episcopal church now
0.47 Bishop Johnson&;s farm was a Peanut Farm
0.47 in Plains Georgia right next door to the
0.47 Carter Farm the only difference is that
0.47 being an AM Bishop Bishop Johnson&;s farm
0.47 was larger than the Carter Farm much
0.47 larger and as a
0.47 result uh Carter&;s father and my
0.47 grandfather became he really respected
0.47 that a black man had achieved that much
0.47 and of course you and I know that in
0.47 those days Black Folk had to go to the
0.47 back door but my grandfather was the
0.47 only black person in Plains that could
0.47 go through the Carter&;s front door so he
0.47 really had the highest respect for
0.47 Bishop Johnson and so it wasn&;t
0.47 necessarily the
0.47 after Bishop
0.47 Johnson then influenced
0.47 Carter&;s father that my father uh Alvin
0.47 senior uh and Jimmy Carter became best
0.47 friends they grew up together they were
0.47 educated um at the same time and of
0.47 course it was segregation back then but
0.47 Carter went to the academy the Naval
0.47 Academy and my father went to the Navy
0.47 and the Navy sent him to
0.47 uh Boston and so he went to tus
0.47 University there in Boston so the issue
0.47 is that Carter and my father were very
0.47 best friends but it was the influence of
0.47 Bishop Johnson that made all of
0.47 them really love the Lord love the
0.47 church embedded in them their love for
0.47 the church and for the Lord my my my
0.47 grandfather had three sons Simeon who
0.47 became a colonel in the AM church and uh
0.47 William Decker Jr who became the editor
0.47 of the am review and my father who built
0.47 uh wil&;s Chapel in uh Tulsa the issue is
0.47 that was my grandfather&;s influence over
0.47 Carter&;s father and really impacted
0.47 Carter himself and my father the two of
0.47 them grew up and loved the church and so
0.47 it&;s because of Bishop Johnson&;s
0.47 influence over the Caris with the Caris
0.47 in with the influence that Jimmy Carter
0.47 then not
0.47 only taught Sunday school he loved the
0.47 church was in it every single Sunday if
0.47 he was anywhere in vicinity he was in
0.47 church and so it&;s because of um Bishop
0.47 Johnson M who I might
0.47 add um brought a a college
0.47 into uh into existence called Johnson
0.47 home industrial college that my
0.47 grandfather influenced the Carters
0.47 influenced all of the people in that
0.47 Plains area in archeries which is really
0.47 a suburb they&;re really right there
0.47 together but it was my father&;s my
0.47 grandfather&;s farm and his influence
0.47 that really
0.47 impacted the
0.47 spirituality he impacted the
0.47 spirituality of James Earl Carter so oh
0.47 so first of all this is I know I&;m I
0.47 can&;t be by myself just in awe and I&;ve
0.47 talked to you already this week but even
0.47 hearing more of this is just amazing um
0.47 re Dr Tracy Blackman founder and CEO of
0.47 Hope builds LLC a former associate uh
0.47 General Minister Justice and local
0.47 Church Ministries in the United Church
0.47 of Christ the UCC social justice Warrior
0.47 and became a I don&;t know it&;s a friend
0.47 mentee but developed a relationship with
0.47 President
0.47 Carter you&;re hearing this now Dr
0.47 Blackman what are it has to have you
0.47 like me kind of just rethinking a lot
0.47 about Jimmy Carter can you talk to this
0.47 because you&;re a daughter of the am
0.47 Church you know our social justice St
0.47 you know all of that yeah how is this
0.47 Landing with
0.47 you well first thank you for having me
0.47 Dr Tyler and congratulations on the new
0.47 position in the AM Church um I&;m
0.47 listening to this story just fascinated
0.47 and realizing that it makes a lot of
0.47 things um makes sense I&;m here in DC uh
0.47 for the funeral of President Carter and
0.47 today I spent time with some people that
0.47 were uh chosen by him and his family to
0.47 have a private
0.47 viewing uh in the retunda uh today where
0.47 his body lays in Repose um and in those
0.47 conversations it it was um a couple of
0.47 things happened and and I will tie them
0.47 into what we&;re talking about uh one was
0.47 to stand in the retunda uh with this
0.47 group of people and realize that
0.47 everyone standing it was about a dozen
0.47 of us that everyone standing there were
0.47 people who spent their lives helping and
0.47 serving others um it it was really a
0.47 statement to who he is and What mattered
0.47 to him uh that he wanted to be
0.47 surrounded even in his passing by people
0.47 who saw the need to help others as a way
0.47 uh to be the best person that you could
0.47 be and so when I listened to that kind
0.47 of ethos which wasn&;t just something
0.47 that he talked about it was it was
0.47 something that uh President Carter
0.47 embodied um he is a president who I
0.47 believe could have had a second term but
0.47 wasn&;t willing to compromise his
0.47 Integrity to do so uh he&;s a person
0.47 whose Faith was first and foremost for
0.47 him he built over thousands of home for
0.47 Habitat Humanity and in his post
0.47 presidency uh life he did even greater
0.47 things for Global Peace and Global
0.47 Health uh he won the Nobel Peace Prize
0.47 for his interventions with Israel and
0.47 Egypt and his Global International Peace
0.47 work is why he won that Peace Prize and
0.47 so to listen to this story this um sense
0.47 and allegiance to Liberation and seeing
0.47 all people I was talking to one of his
0.47 um staff today who worked very closely
0.47 with him on women&;s rights and she
0.47 revealed that in his latter days he
0.47 focused primarily in African uh
0.47 countries we don&;t talk about that a lot
0.47 um but he brought a wisdom and great
0.47 respect and great love for the people of
0.47 the mother cont continent of into
0.47 conversation whether he flew them to to
0.47 the cter center or whether he went where
0.47 they were um and that was fascinating to
0.47 me because because he&;s hundred years
0.47 old I didn&;t think that he would have
0.47 grown up with any inclinations such as
0.47 that and hearing this story makes it
0.47 make sense because his roots are found
0.47 in those that he wanted to later have an
0.47 impact um in the betterment of their
0.47 lives and the seeing of their value and
0.47 their Brilliance so I&;m just in awe of
0.47 hearing this story to tell you the truth
0.47 so so so first of all thank you for
0.47 taking time out on today be with us
0.47 because we know that they&;re probably
0.47 pulling you every which way they&;re in
0.47 DC um so so Dr Blackman I was listening
0.47 today to um his acceptance speech when
0.47 he was elected governor in 1970 of
0.47 Georgia and he&;s and he went on this
0.47 riff about that you know we have to end
0.47 bigotry and hatred and racial hatred I
0.47 mean he just went on this long kind of
0.47 thing and I guess for some people they
0.47 may have thought it was just you know
0.47 things a politician says because it&;s
0.47 know you want to get votes but hearing
0.47 it after hearing this story the last few
0.47 days it it spoke to me like I&;m
0.47 wondering he he must have been thinking
0.47 and like picturing people that he knew
0.47 personally uh as he&;s talking about this
0.47 story um do you kind of see like you
0.47 know his faith how did it play into how
0.47 he understood race and you know moving
0.47 this country forward especially given
0.47 the current attacks on everything from
0.47 Dei to anything that looks like it is an
0.47 attempt to be fair and write the wrong
0.47 of the past I absolutely see that and to
0.47 hear Reverend Dr um Johnson talk about
0.47 his grandfa and their Farm being right
0.47 next door to the Carter farm and being
0.47 the larger Farm uh and them having
0.47 authentic relationship there you know we
0.47 all know that relationship is what
0.47 changes the world uh it&;s not rhetoric
0.47 it&;s not law it&;s relationships when you
0.47 meet people that contradict the things
0.47 that you&;ve been told about them then it
0.47 changes you forever and hearing this
0.47 story just makes me love Jimmy Carter
0.47 more but but also recognize it helps me
0.47 to recognize the power of the strong
0.47 power of what the am church has been
0.47 doing in loud and quiet ways for a very
0.47 long time you&;re talking um when
0.47 Reverend Johnson said how old uh his
0.47 grandfather was uh I&;m like I was born
0.47 in in
0.47 1963 and he said
0.47 1865 that was so many years ago right
0.47 that he was already making a difference
0.47 in um in the lives of black people and
0.47 obviously in the lives of white people
0.47 too um because he knew that his
0.47 grandfather must have known that we all
0.47 need each other um and those examples of
0.47 love and those examples of acceptance
0.47 and doing things the right way I am sure
0.47 what
0.47 100% sure influenced Jimmy Carter who
0.47 chose his faith over everything else wow
0.47 that that&;s amazing you know as I was
0.47 thinking Reverend Harris um kind of
0.47 bring you in here that and Reverend
0.47 black you just touched right on it right
0.47 so Jimmy Carter&;s born in
0.47 1924 so you have Bishop William Decker
0.47 Johnson who is the son of enslaved
0.47 people so from his life he goes back
0.47 deep into the 1800s with people who
0.47 influenced and touched him and going
0.47 forward with Jimmy Carter who lives a
0.47 hundred years I mean you span the 1800s
0.47 the 1900s and deep into the 2000s with
0.47 these two individuals who as you said
0.47 authentically knew each other and the
0.47 kind of influence that lasted a 100y
0.47 year Rel you know influence over
0.47 somebody Reverend Harris what I mean how
0.47 are people in America Georgia AR

0.47 things to say about uh President Carter
0.47 if you would go back um um he went to
0.47 Georgia Southwest in his first year um
0.47 and then he went on to uh the Navy
0.47 Academy
0.47 but uh the people are you know just just
0.47 blessed to you know and and and they are
0.47 Overjoyed by the fact that he never lost
0.47 a sense of where he is from and and
0.47 that&;s that&;s very important um to um
0.47 the community as well he always um made
0.47 certain that he uh recognize uh PLS uh
0.47 in s County um uh in the area Southwest
0.47 Georgia um as his home um he did not
0.47 leave and and once he um retired and
0.47 came back to PLS and and um would teach
0.47 uh Sunday school um every Sunday when he
0.47 was able and people from all over came
0.47 to uh to his Sunday school class so uh
0.47 the people are something kind of you
0.47 know they are just um um thankful and
0.47 and grateful for his contribution that
0.47 he brought a light to to the community
0.47 of of S County and and they got
0.47 something to be proud of well listen
0.47 speaking of being proud I think as you
0.47 know am and as you know person who came
0.47 out of the am tradition it gives us A
0.47 Renewed sense you know we we talk we off
0.47 still am Mark you can claim me all right
0.47 you I don&;t want you UCC people running
0.47 me down on the street you trying to take
0.47 Tracy Blackman from us yeah
0.47 but does I mean like this is for anybody
0.47 I mean I don&;t know how you feel but you
0.47 know we get so many bad news stories
0.47 that we often forget to lift up these
0.47 important stories and I mean I would
0.47 imagine there are thousands of stories
0.47 like these uh it just gives me such a
0.47 sense of hope and as a preacher I&;ll
0.47 tell you that like sometimes you think
0.47 maybe you don&;t see the crowd that you
0.47 want and you kind of wonder about your
0.47 influence like could Bishop William
0.47 johnon
0.47 William Decker johnsson think in the
0.47 1920s talking to this little white kid
0.47 next door and talking to him about
0.47 Christ that it could have such a huge
0.47 influence that he&;s talking to a future
0.47 president who will have a world platform
0.47 it&;s just it&;s it&;s mindboggling to me
0.47 um Reverend Johnson does your family how
0.47 does your family hold this story I mean
0.47 how did you yeah what do you all think
0.47 about it just as a family like you know
0.47 this is incredible it is it is
0.47 incredible I want to thank goodness for
0.47 my my uh sister who uh has done
0.47 incredible amounts of research on Bishop
0.47 uh Johnson but the main thing that
0.47 really impacts us is that with so much
0.47 hatred in the world and so many people
0.47 taught to hate each other simply because
0.47 of melanin In Their Skin and other
0.47 fictitious IDE because there&;s no such
0.47 thing as race however the Carter
0.47 overcame that hatred and uh it can be
0.47 overcome and
0.47 influence uh people to on to Greatness
0.47 and so we&;re very proud of the fact that
0.47 Bishop Johnson and his influence over
0.47 Jimmy Carter and my own father the the
0.47 projected them into into greatness and
0.47 so one one of the and I think it&;s
0.47 ironic because Jimmy Carter became a
0.47 submarine he was a genius at the nuclear
0.47 weaponry and my father helped to build
0.47 the the submarines that
0.47 Carter that Carter uh Captain so it was
0.47 it&;s just very very interesting that our
0.47 family our Heritage and the African
0.47 Methodist Episcopal Church helped to
0.47 overcome racial hatred and project
0.47 people into greatness such as Jimmy
0.47 Carter oh that&;s a great word thank you
0.47 for that message all right let me give
0.47 uh also Reverend Harris and then
0.47 Reverend Blackman a closing word as well
0.47 Reverend Harris anything you want to
0.47 like um anything that just kind of hits
0.47 you in this moment well I&;m just uh
0.47 grateful to be a part of of of this
0.47 history um the am church has um really
0.47 have um a major influence in sta County
0.47 um so many um great um uh people who
0.47 have who have March through S County and
0.47 just to hear uh Dr Johnson um I am
0.47 Overjoyed by by the stories and um and
0.47 just so grateful in the words of uh
0.47 President Carter
0.47 uh one of the uh the mayor uh lee
0.47 kennelman who is the mayor of America
0.47 was a social studies uh teacher in the U
0.47 late 90s early 2000 did a
0.47 documentary uh on uh archery and one of
0.47 the things that he interviewed President
0.47 Carter at that time and President Carter
0.47 um U talked about uh how um his father
0.47 would take them the St Mark am Church in
0.47 archery and when Bishop Johnson came
0.47 home and he was just fascinated over the
0.47 fact that you know Bishop Johnson was uh
0.47 such an intelligent um um preacher but
0.47 also he said he could relate to the
0.47 sharecroppers as well so he could talk
0.47 the the slang and and kind of bring uh
0.47 bring everything together and and and
0.47 Bridge everything uh he can walk with
0.47 Kings but he also can uh have the common
0.47 touch for those who may have not been um
0.47 educated at the time and and made them
0.47 feel a part as well and that&;s um is
0.47 coming uh from President Carter in an
0.47 interview he did over 25 years ago and
0.47 uh I&;m just so uh grateful that um I can
0.47 share um that story also and I&;m just
0.47 Geor just to be in the Pres of um Bishop
0.47 Johnson&;s grandson and um just just
0.47 grateful to hear all the stories and I
0.47 would like to hear much more from him as
0.47 well wonderful wonderful so Dr Blackman
0.47 um you know last words I know yeah I
0.47 mean just how how are you feeling what
0.47 are you thinking and if there&;s anything
0.47 that else that happened at the funeral
0.47 you want to share with us that you know
0.47 in this moment because we&;re kind of
0.47 living by Carly through your presence
0.47 there well the the funeral is tomorrow
0.47 um and we have to be downstairs at 6:30
0.47 so I&;m going to bed pretty soon um but
0.47 what really resonates with me right now
0.47 uh Reverend Dr Tyler in one of my
0.47 earlier visits with you when you at
0.47 mother bethl and you told the story of
0.47 going into St George I&;ve never
0.47 forgotten that story um and as I
0.47 listened uh to both Reverend Harris and
0.47 and uh Reverend son speaking here um I I
0.47 am struck by the comments that have been
0.47 made about the simpleness of Jimmy
0.47 Carter&;s funeral his uh coffin is just a
0.47 wooden coffin with a flag draped over it
0.47 that&;s all he wanted um and I think that
0.47 his connections that were made in Plains
0.47 Georgia Beyond his own immediate family
0.47 uh with the am family uh are best served
0.47 in the Testament that a man who has
0.47 served this nation in the highest office
0.47 possible who is expected and owed uh a
0.47 king&;s
0.47 burial who has Place reserved for him in
0.47 Arington because that&;s where our
0.47 presidents go will leave DC tomorrow
0.47 after this funeral to be buried in
0.47 Plains next to his
0.47 wife he wanted to be buried at
0.47 home and as this inauguration
0.47 approaches one that he did all he could
0.47 do to make have a different outcome one
0.47 where he voted for kamla Harris publicly
0.47 stating
0.47 so and when that didn&;t work out offered
0.47 his
0.47 congratulations to President elect Trump
0.47 because he is a man of character and
0.47 integrity and understands the Office of
0.47 the
0.47 President as that
0.47 looms and he has transitioned to another
0.47 place I know it&;s pretty Petty of me but
0.47 I think he has the last word in that the
0.47 stat the flag of the United States will
0.47 fly at half mass for 30 days because the
0.47 president Jimmy Carter has died which
0.47 means that it will be at half Mass when
0.47 the next inauguration comes and the fact
0.47 that he is leaving here and going back
0.47 to Plains Georgia for me is his way of
0.47 saying under the shadow of the Civil
0.47 Rights Movement where in Memphis Dr King
0.47 would have been marching with sanitation
0.47 workers who say I am a
0.47 man it is Jimmy Carter&;s way of saying
0.47 I am only a
0.47 man and I&;m grateful for the impact that
0.47 the am church had on him recognizing the
0.47 humanity of
0.47 all
0.47 wow boy I tell you you three are amazing
0.47 thank you for for being here on tonight
0.47 Reverend Tracy Blackman CEO of Hope

0.47 spring summer and fall uh doing black
0.47 history on two wheels you can find that
0.47 on YouTube as I&;m already posting things
0.47 and um when I go to preach in February
0.47 in Americas at Island Chapel for
0.47 Reverend Harris he has promised to drag
0.47 me around to every Historic Site that&;s
0.47 down there um and I&;m looking forward to
0.47 it at some point this year Reverend
0.47 Blackman you may want to pull a
0.47 motorcycle out and join me we&;re going
0.47 to ride across the Edmund Pettis Bridge
0.47 from Brown Chapel am Church down there
0.47 Reverend strong G to reach out to him
0.47 and uh we&;re going to keep this going
0.47 because we cannot allow our stories to
0.47 be buried and for people to forget that
