The Transformation of Tafari
In this episode, I'm taking you on a deeply personal journey from the strict pews of a fire-and-brimstone church to the liberating discovery of my own truth. Raised in a devout Christian household, I witnessed firsthand the contradictions, hypocrisies, and control that shaped the faith of my family and community. But when the church turned its back on me, I found something far greater: freedom of the mind.
Through travel, study, and self-reflection, I came to understand how religion has been used as a tool of manipulation, particularly against Black people, and how spiritual awakening begins when the blinders come off. This is not just my story, it’s a call for all of us to question, to seek truth beyond tradition, and to reclaim our power.
Please tune in to hear the chapter that became the foundation of Tafari’s transformation, where chains were broken, the spirit was redefined, and a mission to awaken his people was born.
Unchain Your Mind. Reclaim Your Soul.
