KING Talks Ep 10 | Table Talk on Rev. Conrad Tillard Part 2

Posted on 12/02/2017 12:00 am  

Episode 10 of KING Talks is live! Adam, Chris & Cliff are back at you with PART 2 Table Talks that covers issues discussed in the Rev. Conrad Tillard Sr. interview, formerly a member of the Nation of Islam and the current host of Conversations with Conrad on WCHR NYC. Part 2 we ask whether or not teaching black history & black identity in the church is divisive, how integration enabled hip hop music in a negative way, and the meaning of the so-called ‘social gospel’–why that’s a term we should move away from.  Part 1 was amazing and informative, but Part 2 doesn’t disappoint! #podcast #kingtalks #farrakhan #christianity #nationofislam #blackmen #nationalism #kingmovement #SITL
