THE RIGHT SOUND BITES Pastor Kyev Tatum: The Man, the Message, and His Relationship With The Media Since 1980. By Black Texans, Inc. MSNBC Link:https://www.msnbc.com/politicsnation/watch/benjamin-crump-talks-new-book-criminal-justice-reform-72112709512?fbclid=IwQ0xDSwLk299leHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHvGVPXv4u0BfQedgMaPS6EfP9RgXVgC7aKNt36S9YVJGxhfA90iTPKFkciAv_aem_3hzYXoPx5Ecfz6ZVW_A8mQ



FORT WORTH, TEXAS — The story begins in May of 1980, when the Fort Worth Star-Telegram captured a proud mother on its front page, celebrating the graduation of her son Archie. Among the crowd was a young boy named Kyev Tatum. That moment lit a spark—and since then, Kyev has lived in a lifelong love affair with the media.




From catching passes on the football field at Tarleton State University, to organizing student movements at the University of North Texas, to championing civil rights at Texas State University and confronting policymakers in the halls of the Texas State Capitol—Kyev’s journey has always run parallel with the lens, the microphone, and the story.




Now, as Pastor of New Mount Rose Missionary Baptist Church in Fort Worth, his prophetic voice continues to echo far beyond the pulpit.



Kyev Tatum doesn’t just use media—he understands it. He’s lived it. As a former radio announcer on two San Marcos stations, and now as host of the Determined and Undeterred podcast, Kyev has shaped his message with clarity, conviction, and compassion.



He’s been interviewed by every major media outlet in Texas and countless national platforms. His commentary is not noise—it’s newsworthy. A trusted voice. A soundbite savant. A preacher with a press pass.




But what truly separates Pastor Kyev Tatum is not just his presence on camera—but his purpose behind it. He has consistently used the power of media to amplify the voices of the ignored, the silenced, and the unseen. Even when officials shut doors or turn off microphones—Kyev speaks. And the cameras roll.



His 40-plus-year relationship with the media is built not on convenience, but on trust. He trusts them. And they trust him.




For the least, the last, the lost, and the left out—Kyev Tatum is not just a voice in the wilderness. He is a friend in the media.




And that’s the message worth listening to.

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...
