​A quite organic and thought-provoking conversation from the minds and hearts of Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers, dynamic evangelist, radio and TV personality and best-selling author, and Dr. Christine Bacon.

On part one of this show a caller called and asked "Why is there so much White Silence for those who see racism take place and, further, why does the Church (namely preachers) not become more proactive in addressing these issues with their congregations? On this part two we discuss this question as well as some of the reasons we believe that may be happening. Listen in and enjoy another engaging, yet positive, discussion with The Voices of Virginia. You'll be glad you did.

Race relations in America today may seem strained but not for long if the Voices of Virginia have anything to say about it. Listen in as two of the twelve panel members, Manny Holadia and Julian Rivera, of this organization whose mission it is to unite voices to bring about change in Virginia and America engage with Dr. Christine Bacon in another "tough" and "uncomfortable" conversation. Listen in and lend your ear to the conversation, join your voice and learn how you, too, can get involved in actively making this world a better place.

Preacher Ronald Jackson of "Out of the Box Ministries" joins Dr. Christine for her series on continuing the conversations on racism in America by bringing in a spiritual component: racism is bad. Anything bad comes from the devil. It opposes God's will and yet it must still be dealt with in the natural in order to be fixed. Listen in to another broadcast which seeks to give voice to both Black and White voices. The conversations must continue.

With the racial tensions in America today at its highest levels in decades, it's good to bring in the perspectives of those who have first hand experience with being Black and with being White: a married couple. Listen in as Jacob and Jessica McCleese share very transparently what it's like to become family with  someone from another race including some disapproving family members, misspoken phrases and a whole lot of empathy and understanding where once ignorance existed. It's a warm, honest and insightful hour that will open your eyes and help to bridge any gaps between yourself and those in your life with a different skin color.

Two hundred years ago, Will Ford's great grandparents, Black slaves, prayed that one day their grandchildren would sit together with the grandchildren of their White owners at the same table as friends and brothers. Two centuries later those prayers have been answered. Listen to this incomprehensibly divine story in which Ford and his best friend Matt Locket share how they met, established the bonds of their friendship and the moment they found out the truth about their shared history. It is an hour that will not soon leave your memory. In this day where racial healing is so desperately needed, Will and Matt's story will show you the power, the love and the beauty that can be birthed from forgiveness and repentance two centuries in the making. You will NEVER hear another story like this!

What profession can be more difficult than that of one of America's elite military forces--the Navy SEALS? How about being the first African American within that force at a time when being Black itself was a daily struggle in a world that still segregated its Blacks from its Whites? Meet Master Chief (Ret) Bill Goines, the one man who can answer those questions because he lived it. Enjoy this great conversation with one of America's finest as he details his life before, during and after his time as a Navy SEAL--a career he would do all over again if he were able. Prepare to be blessed.

The photo of him and numerous other Black Americans praying over President Trump in the Oval Office went viral and was attacked relentlessly by the media and others. He says "President Trump is the best president  since Abraham Lincoln" and he's been persecuted for it. Meet Marc Little: pro-life, preacher, lawyer, Black and Republican. Passionate about relationship over apology, he's focused on getting Americans (in particular Black Americans) to return to traditional family values, vote based on biblical principles, and love like it's all you have. Listen in and be inspired unlike ever before. It's a powerful hour of insights.

Dr. Christine Bacon continues her conversation with guests from both sides of the "population": the majority and the minority. Nothing can heal our nation's current issues better than continued conversations directed at enlightening minds and changing hearts. No matter where one stands on the issue of racism, the truth remains that our nation's Black brothers and sisters believe it exists and experience it on a daily basis. So when one member of the body is hurting, the entire body is hurting and the only way to ease the pain is to find the wound in order to next find and apply the medicine. Listen in as we continue this engaging and eye-opening conversation that seeks to do just that. You may leave feeling a bit less comfortable or a bit more relieved. Either way, you'll leave changed.

America is experiencing some unprecedented events in the history of its existence as a nation. Protests and riots over race relationships have dominated our nation's cities as well as the media coverage reporting it. We are in a turning point and how we communicate with one another at this important juncture will determine the direction of all future generations of any color for decades to come. America is a great nation whose basic humanity is good and whose majority (both Black and White) seeks to love another and work together to heal our nation. But to do that we must seek first to understand those minority populations whose voices have remained unheard for far too long. As a famous person once said, "If part of the body is hurt, the whole body hurts." America is hurting. Listen in to this very real and raw conversation between some of America's greatest citizens in order to hear what's been shouted from the rooftops but had not yet been heard...until now. It'll open your eyes and hopefully your heart too, and, if we're lucky, it'll help you to see life in America from a different set of eyes than your own.
