The Walking Dead of Faith
In this episode of Movement, Rhythm, and Conversations with Tafari, we confront one of the hardest truths in our community: the mental enslavement that religion has wrapped around African Americans for centuries. We explore how European powers didn’t just chain the body, they chained the mind, using the Bible as a tool to strip away African identity, self-worth, and power.
I break down why so many of our people feel attacked when we question the slave master’s religion, why blind faith has turned us into a people walking through life like the dead, and how the cycle of obedience keeps us in spiritual darkness. This episode challenges the hypocrisy, calls out the lies, and dares us to see ourselves beyond the illusions handed down through generations.
It’s not about destroying belief, it’s about reclaiming the truth. It’s about unchaining the mind to reclaim the soul.
