Nothing Gets Done Without A Beginning!


Had the wonderful opportunity to speak with, but more importantly - LISTEN TOO -- the young men spearheading the truce in Plainfield during their BKS1 3-hour talk radio interview.  BKS1 Radio is a local internet-based combination talk radio and R&B genre music station that has begun to claim listeners throughout the country, and most assuredly right here in their hometown of Plainfield, NJ. I was first introduced to the station when asked to interview last year regarding parental involvement and mentoring.

Although not a religious listeners I do log in from time to time when topics (advertised on Facebook) call my attention.

Tonight/This Morning -- was one of those times and like all the other times the show's topic and guests, as well as a host of call-in and chat room patrons did not disappoint!


Dubbed "The Fave Five" These gentlemen are spearheading a truce among rivaling gangs in an effort to bring PEACE back to the Queen City!  They fully own their responsibilities for past behaviors and misguided deeds, and recognize that they have an opportunity to bring about positive change in our community.

Log onto to http://bks1radio.com/index.php tomorrow to hear a rerun of the 3-hr long interview.

May we all learn the lessons of patience, tolerance, unconditional love and respect as we begin the journey to restoration and peace in our city.
