In this pod, Meeks dissects how the Black revolutionaries and activists of 1960s and 70s the were suppressed, infiltrated, expunged and replaced by leaders of the new school made up of sundry gangsta rappers, questionable politicians, a few would-be-billionaires, prosperity gospel pastors and masons. Altogether they are called the Boulé. This evolution of the unified Black Christian tradition left the majority of Blacks in urban settings vulnerable to the wiles of urban renewal and blight. Fast forward to today, the so-called presidents and vice presidents that were supposed to heal and make us whole, often worked against the community they claimed to represent. This episode goes through the history of this decades long process and finally posits but one conjoined solution - personal salvation in Christ and Black Christian communalism.
