“I believe we’ve lost the ability to engage in a proper debate within our Community and understanding that we are not always going to agree with each other but that shouldn’t stop us from working together. We've forgotten that being able to have serious discussions where we may have different views will actually help us to foster civility among each other when we are able to “agree to disagree” but work toward common goals for our Community and chosen Culture. This will, in turn, improve the way we both view & interact with each other within the Black Community.” – Wes Chase
