The Understatement of Plowing

Do you ever wonder about the hearts and souls of the men who make up our society? Have you ever been tempted to ask them about their life realities and the secrets that shape their identities today? Men around the world have different stories to tell. Some stories are tragic and others are full drama and maybe enduring love. Whatever the case may be, each one's narrative is unique and important, not one story is greater than the next. This is the cornerstone of our society, the foundation by which our nation stands. But for black men in America, this foundation has appeared faulty and unjust. There has been a Great Divide that now beckons a bridge of togetherness.

What if men could live peaceably without discounting one another, no matter their race, culture, social or economic status? 

In this historical documentary, you will travel in time from the 1920's to the year 2019. You will discover what it feels like to be a black man in American society, each generation plowing straight ahead and never giving up on a land that has promised liberty and justice for all. The men in this book are living the lives of modern day pioneers. 

You will get to know them on a personally level and quickly understand why the process of plowing should never be minimized. It is what sustains the hope of a grand harvest. This hope requires extreme hard work, steadfastness, and unwavering faith. A faith that invites the unity of all people.

There is a hope of not only creating a positive environment for a dialogue concerning the challenges of unity, but the importance of implementing a "Call to Action" by stepping back into time and identifying the deadly root, then cutting it off once and for all. Healing a nation begins with acknowledgement, repentance and forgiveness. 

The Understatement of Plowing is raw and organic. It will give you a close look inside the minds of four black men. You will hear the whispers of their hearts speak, "We just want to be valued as MEN, period." And with that, we trust that hope will not disappoint. I implore you to receive what you will and find a way to not only understand their perspectives, but be compelled to join them on a quest to walk out God's original plan for true diversity and unity in America.
