"seeKing", previously shared on several occasions without music, has been enhanced to bring a deeper resonance to this piece- born from historical ache, generational memory and our relentless pursuit of justice.

This piece, which I love, confronts the moments when hope was mocked, when dreamers were silenced, and when violence tried to erase vision.

Isn't that eerily similar to what we are now facing?

If you listen until the end, this piece admonishes us, through the words of John Lewis, to lift our chin and continue to seek out 'Good Trouble' so that we can continue to illuminate that our spirit refuses to die.

This is "seeKing" as it was always meant to be experienced-honest, and spiritually anchored.

OUR SPIRIT...LIVES!

PEACE!

I was inspired to revise this piece for Black History Month.

This piece is for OUR Ancestors-those who endured.

For the dreamers who marched.

For the families who held the line.

For every generation that rose-and continues to rise.

It is a reminder.

A testimony.

A DECLARATION!

OUR SPIRIT...LIVES!

PEACE!

They are running this race with the expectation that we will eventually grow weary-en masse.

Their game plan is to continue to throw things at us with the expectation that we will all simply accept it as a way of life-adopt "the it is what is is" mentality and simply acquiesce to whatever they have in store for US.

Think back to your childhood. Remember that ache or that sore to which we all paid close attention. Remember, it seems as if every 15 minutes, or so, we rubbed it or picked at it until we became accustomed to the pain.

"Desensitized"...

alludes to just that . The guy at 1600 Pennsylvania and his loyal minions think that if they continue to create diversions -those things that we once thought unfathomable in America-then we will soon forget and go on about our business.

Let's KEEP IT 100...that is what we have perpetually done on too many occasions to count.

However, this time I feel that they are overplaying their hand and are setting themselves up for a MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT.

Let's continue to maintain our composure throughout the daily constitutional and civil rights violations, the protests, and the numerous other daily atrocities.

NO!!! That does not mean SILENCE!!

Let's all find some way that we can support those who do choose to man the lines in an effort to right this wayward ship.

It is my prayer that these pieces helps to illuminate and helps us to keep the current situation at the forefront of our minds, so that we will not become desensitized.

OUR SPIRIT...LIVES!

PEACE!
