    Nov 17 2025

    Gwen Allen would live one of the most traumatizing experiences of her life as she witnessed her best friend participating in her high school pre-graduation preparations while she sat at home with a new born child. This moment would forever define the course of her life as she made a promise to her mother that she would never give up until she got her high school diploma. That promised would be aggressively tested but Gwen would learn to bend but not break. Through faith in Jesus Christ, prayer and hard work, she would soon become a beacon of hope for anyone that came in contact with her. She would not only get her GED, bachelors degree, nursing license and Masters degree but she would also go on to be the second African American director of surgery at Saint Anthony's hospital for seven years before retiring. She wants her testimony to inspire anyone who feels like the world has given up on them. Her belief is that anyone can make a come back from bad choices or situations if you believe! The Movement with Mongo proudly presents an episode that we call - If Gwen can then you can! My mama's comeback story!

  • The House of David: And Justice for All!
    Nov 17 2025

    David Prater was the district attorney of Oklahoma county for more than sixteen years. In that time frame, he tried some of the most divisive cases that the state has ever seen but none would be as heart wrenching as the 2009 pharmacy robbing. David would be forced to rely on his faith in GOD when radical groups would begin to threaten him over following the states law and not what was popular. This case would define the states moral compass on truth, and fairness for all Oklahomans and define the legacy of the district attorney who just wanted justice for all. The Movement with Mongo humbly presents an episode that we call - The House of David: And justice for all!
