This is the second part of the conversation between Pastor Jason and myself. In this episode, we talk less about the history of the bible and religion and more about practicing what you preach. Can one be a "Good Christian" and vote for Donald Trump? 

I've known Jason since way back. Back before he was a pastor and before I was a tattoo artist; before either of us settled into calmer lifestyles. What I knew of Jason then is no longer who he is now. I'm different in many ways, but my core beliefs remain the same.
Listen to this episode as we cover the differences between God and Religion, and debate how the Bible has been used to further a racist agenda. We talk about the Black Israelites, who believe they are God's Chosen People, eternally punished for turning away from God.
As always we appreciate any and all feedback on the episode and look forward to reading your reviews!

On this special episode of The Grand Proclamation, I call a woman named Amanda who I found on social media. Her family had disowned her, I learned by a post she made, for attending Black Lives Matter marches and protesting racism and police brutality. 
This episode gives space for Amanda to give her perspective on the events of 2020.

Welcome to The Grand Proclamation where we have important conversations with important people. The definition of Grand Proclamation is: A public or official announcement of an important matter.  Our guests are candidates for office, they are activists, they are disowned from their families for marching for Black lives, they are voices that the country needs to hear right now. Jon Johnson hosts a different person each week to give insight into what is going on in the world right now.

On this episode of The Grand Proclamation, I sit down with Dora Drake, Democratic State Assembly Candidate in Milwaukee's District 11. She's running for the same position as our first guest, Orlando Owens. Topics jump all over including gun control, mental health, voting and campaigning during an unprecedented pandemic, and what it's like being a Black woman in America running for office.

On the very first episode of The Grand Proclamation, Jon sits down with Orlando Owens, a Black Republican running for State Assembly in the 11th District of Milwaukee, WI.
Jon only learned that Orlando was a Republican upon arrival to record the episode. A slew of questions followed. Press play to hear conversations about what Orlando plans to do if he's elected on November 3rd, how religion and race affect people's political views, and what it's like running a local race during a controversial national election.
