Dr. Margaret Hardy & I invite you to join us for #TheSundaySchoolLesson live from 8:30-9AM CST on Facebook at www.facebook.com/HankTheRockS...

Jesus spoke truth to power, confronting the religious elite & political oppression. What do we consider important enough to take a stand for? Background:

Let us all be inspired by the words and the actions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. every day of our lives. "The road ahead is not altogether a smooth one. There are no broad highways that lead us easily and inevitably to quick solutions. But we must keep going." - Dr. King's words 60 years ago.

Sketches #1960 – The unique power of unity.
We can never lift others without lifting ourselves. We can never pull down others without pulling down ourselves. Those who tear down others, tear down themselves. #CircleOfUnity #SymbolsOfUnity #Unite #Lift #Contribute 🦋

Today is the seventh day of #Kwanzaa. The principle for the day is #Imani, which means #faith. I wish you Imani because faith helps us to make a way out of no way. It helps us with our family. It helps us with our communities. It helps us with everything. 1/3

We have so many opportunities to start over. Each new morning is an opportunity to start over, but there’s nothing like a whole year to start all over. New Year’s provides that opportunity. Let us join hands and hearts and spirits to start over this new year. Have a great start over and great year!

I have written a weekly column every week for the past 1,957 consecutive weeks. First I wrote Senate Sketches for decades, and now I write Sketches. My column for Thanksgiving week is linked below. #Thankful

Epilogue: Kwanzaa is so powerful. It is powerful for people who practice it because it builds better communities and better communities build better people. Kwanzaa is particularly powerful for oppressed peoples... #Kwanzaa

There's no other holiday season like this one. We have 4 holidays within 8 days. #Christmas! #Kwanzaa! #Hanukkah! #NewYears! I combine the spirits of each of these four holidays, and I pray that their combined strength touches and lifts each one of us. I pray that we are lifted in joy, love & unity!
