MARCHING AGAINST THE MADNESS | Friday, April 4, 2025 in Fort Worth, Texas 76104.

FORT WORTH, TEXAS - Fifty-seven years ago, a bullet took the life of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., a man who preached peace but fell victim to the very violence he fought against. His assassination was not just the loss of a leader—it was a wound to his family, to the Black community, and to a nation still grappling with the devastating impact of gun violence. Decades later, the pain persists, the trauma lingers, and the cycle continues.



On Friday, April 4, 2025, at 5:30 PM, we gather to say enough. We come together as a united force of love, resilience, and remembrance for all those we have lost, for the families still mourning, and for the communities still healing. March Against the Madness: Overcoming the Thoughts, Triggers, and Trauma of Gun Violence and Suicide is more than a march—it is a call to action, a demand for change, and a step toward healing.


We will begin at the corner of Atatiana Jefferson Memorial Parkway and Mississippi Avenue, marching through a community that knows this pain too well. With every step down Mississippi Avenue, we march in memory of Dr. King, Atatiana Jefferson, and countless others. We march for justice, we march for peace, and we march for a future where no more families must bear this burden.



Our journey will end at New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church (2864 Mississippi Avenue, Fort Worth, Texas 76104), where we will lift up the voices of survivors, honor the fallen, and renew our commitment to breaking the cycle of gun violence.


Let us march with purpose.

Let us march with love.

Let us march for a safer tomorrow.

NOT GUILTY IN TARRANT COUNTY! Joseph Delancy Stands Victorious with His Grandmother by His Side. Pastor Kyev Tatum, Sr.  https://www.star-telegram.com/news/local/crime/article301585229.html FORT WORTH, TEXAS - When the words “Not Guilty” rang through the courtroom, Shonette “Mama Shon” Hill felt the weight of the world lift from her shoulders. Her grandson, Joseph Delancy, had endured an unimaginable trial—accused of a crime he did not commit, fighting against a system determined to make him a scapegoat. But through it all, Mama Shon stood firm, unwavering in her belief in Joseph’s innocence. With the love only a grandmother can give, she had been his rock, his shield, his fiercest defender. When others turned away, she remained. When doubt crept in, she stood taller. And when the verdict came, she held Joseph close—her faith and love carrying him through the storm. This was not just a victory for Joseph. It was a testament to a grandmother’s unbreakable love. A FIGHT FOR JUSTICE, ...

Aunt Liz the Angel: A Champion for the Six Triple Eight. By Pastor Kyev Tatum, Founding Director, Texas 6888th Project. WASHINGTON, D.C. – On April 29, 2025, inside Emancipation Hall beneath the sacred shadow of the Capitol dome, the soul of America was stirred as our nation finally paused to say “thank you” to the women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion. That day, wrapped in dignity and destiny, the Congressional Gold Medal was placed upon their legacy. And standing at the center of this divine moment, like a hidden angel sent for such a time as this, was none other than Retired Master Sergeant Elizabeth Anne Helm-Frazier—known across our community, and to the cast of the Tyler Perry film, simply and lovingly as Aunt Liz. Let me say it plain: Aunt Liz is God’s gift to the memory of the Six Triple Eight. When the final living members of the battalion took her in, they said something Master Sgt. never forget: “Liz can’t do no wrong in our book.” And I declare today—neithe...

Bush Presidential Center on the campus of Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas, hosted an extraordinary event honoring the trailblazing women of the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, affectionately known as the “Six Triple Eight.” This all-Black, all-female unit of the Women’s Army Corps made history during World War II by clearing a staggering 17 million-piece mail backlog in Europe, ensuring that American service members received their much-needed letters from home. Their dedication and efficiency not only boosted troop morale but also shattered racial and gender barriers of their time. In recognition of their extraordinary service, the battalion was awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in 2022, the highest civilian ho...
