She say she is very concerned about the way young black mothers are raising their children today. She claims that many mothers are single mothers and they are raising many children without the father in the home. This is a big concern due to the breakdown of family roles which leads to other problems in the single parent households. She also believes that many single women are raising their children without any knowledge of their black history and knowledge of God's History.

She says, "When I grew up, you had no options on what you were going to do on Sunday. Your mama just drugged you in, I mean dragged you and your brothers or sisters right on in to the church without any hesitation. Today, our young blacks are quiet hesitant and resentful of going to church.  They now have CHOICES OR OPTIONS! That's a BIG EPIDEMIC! It is like a disease, its contagious and it SPREADS!

For example, if little Shanika is 8 years old and don't know who the first man that God made was or don't know the man who Rowed his 

boat on that flood, SOMETHING IS WRONG...I mean totally WRONG!!

 But, if you get Shanika's mama and ask her the same questions, she may know, and then she may not. That's still not good for the MAMA to NOT KNOW! You see! I think Shanika's mama's, mama, which is the grandmama, had not been teaching her chullin anything about the Lord! That's where the EPIDEMIC STARTS!

Its a Generational Curse which continues to spread on down from generation to generation and then when little Shanika have kids, they ain't gonna know either! AND THAT'S CONTAGIOUS! Its a crying shame..shame..shame! Oh Lord! We..Gots..TO..do..SOMETHING FAST! Or else, its really gonna spread all over this BLACK GENERATION OF KIDS! Whew Lord, don't even ask Shanika who was the 1st Black President or who the lady was that didn't go to the back of the bus, oh no..don't ...LET ...HER...SPEAK! Have her to HOLD..HER...PEACE!
