Longform investigative essay uncovering how, during Prohibition, the KKK stepped into law enforcement roles—shaping racial hierarchy and policing practices that echo through America’s criminal justice system today.
In 1871, under President Ulysses S. Grant, Black militias in South Carolina stood shoulder to shoulder with U.S. troops to dismantle Ku Klux Klan terror. Led by men like Prince Rivers, Robert Smalls, and Jim Williams, these disciplined defense units proved that when granted the means, freedmen could protect their communities — not through charity, but through courage and organization. Their stand remains one of America’s most overlooked triumphs of Reconstruction.
In 1978, the Kansas City Star noted that football was rivaling church as America’s religion. Decades later, Jerry Jones — once photographed in the Little Rock crowd opposing integration — stands as one of its high priests. From Kaepernick to Deion Sanders to Dr. Tony Evans, his pattern is clear: protect the game, even if it means silencing the prophets.
Pastor Jamal Bryant has once again found himself in the center of cultural clash. After lifting Martin Luther King Jr. as a prophetic voice, he was accused by Millicent Sedra of “ethnic idolatry.” But is honoring a witness the same as worshiping an idol? This sermonette examines the charge, the self-appointed gavel, and what the Word says about idolatry, remembrance, and the cloud of witnesses.

President Trump’s September 25 memorandum “Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence” cloaks itself in security but risks weaponizing fear. Its vague definitions and sweeping powers threaten nonprofits, dissenters, and democracy itself. InnerKwest examines the psychology, history, and political ramifications of this Orwellian directive.
Crypto has become both an accelerant and a cloak for conservative social engineers like the Heritage Foundation and Federalist Society. From anonymous donations to state-level financial experiments, digital currency is being woven into strategies that shift power away from democracy.
In Erie, Barack Obama was asked if America is at an inflection point. He answered, “Yes.” The U.S. now faces a decisive turn—toward renewal or decline. The danger: feckless governance drifting without courage or vision.
White Christian nationalism is not Christianity — it is idolatry. This sermonette unmasks the rival faith of Whiteness that seeks to diminish God’s people of their power, purpose, and prowess. Rooted in Scripture, it calls the church to renounce idols and return to the liberating Christ.
