Episode 9 of KING Talks is live! Adam, Chris & Cliff are back at you with another installment of Table Talks. This week we're addressing our last episode Rev. Conrad Tillard Sr., formerly a member of the Nation of Islam and the current host of Conversations with Conrad on WCHR NYC. There was so much to get into that we split this Table Talk into two parts! Part 1 turned into a fascinating discussion about the factors that led to the rise and 'fall' of the Nation of Islam and the social dynamics that made the organization so attractive to men of color. KING Founder/President Chris Broussard lays out a very strong case for the positive and negative lessons that Christians of all ethnic and social backgrounds should learn from the NOI's time of prominence in America.
