Join Dr. Culbreth for a commentary on what she has coined as
the “Culture of Ignorance.” It is time
to wake-up, stand-up, step-up and address the culture of ignorance, which
continues to be the driving force responsible for the plethora of ills that
continue to stagnate society. Will you take a stand? Where will you stand? With
whom will you stand? On the side of equality, justice, and unity for all people
or will you join the narrow-minded, illogical and biased members of society
“consumed with immoral acts” (King) against the masses? We are at a crossroads in
this country! Be a part of the change
needed in this world!
