Description

Ms. Flora Carter was borne on May 22, 1950.  She was raised with the best of both worlds and was able to experience the American and African culture growing up as her mother was from North Carolina and her dad was from Sierra Leone, Africa.  Her mom died when she was 11 and her dad raised her.  This resulted in Flor starting her independence early at age 17.  Flor is a product of the District of Columbia Public School system and attended college at Washington Technical Institute.  She has always been a hard working person which was instilled early by her dad.  She started working in middle school, at the nurses' office at school and has worked in the Federal Trade Commission, Department of Energy, the Justice Department and several contracting positions.  She retired in 2013 from International Monetary Fund where she worked in record management.  She has on daughter and two granddaughters. Flora fought to overcome verbal, physical, financial, and sexual abuse.  She has worked to help others understand and know that domestic violence is a choice that should not be made.  She says, "The cycle must be broken.  I am not a victim, but victorious, I am a survivor.  I now educate and advocate with perons to end the cycle." Join me Hezekiah L. Montgomery host of The Man In The Mirror and Co-Host Nichelle Johnson as we welcome this dynamic survivor to The Man In The Mirror platform.  She'll tell us more about her story, and share with us how the Lord is now using her to help stop domestic violence one victim at a time.  We'll find out how she helps turn them from victims to victors and become as she says victorious.  Just a reminder that Domestic Violence Is Real!!!
