The assassination of a public figure jolted me into deep reflection about the state of our discourse and the dangerous tactics used to silence differing viewpoints. This episode departs from my usual format to examine my reaction to this national tragedy while connecting it to my personal journey as a targeted individual experiencing harassment and intimidation.

When violence becomes the response to speech we disagree with, we've crossed a dangerous threshold. I share my momentary fear upon hearing the news – knowing that as someone breaking silence about my own experiences, I could become more vulnerable. Yet that fear quickly gave way to resolve. As scripture reminds us, God has not given us a spirit of fear but of power and a sound mind.

The digital landscape has created a troubling disconnect where real humans with families and feelings are reduced to abstract entities deserving of scorn. I've experienced this firsthand through algorithm manipulation, cyber stalking, character assassination, and coordinated campaigns designed to shame me into seclusion. These tactics share a common goal: silencing opposition through fear and isolation.

Despite these challenges, I'm strengthened by faith and encouraged by other Christian voices who refuse to be intimidated. We overcome through our testimony – which explains why those opposing truth often desperately try to silence it. I'm committed to documenting my experiences not from fear but conviction. As the Creole/French saying goes, "Abraham dit c'est assez" (French) or "Abraham di sa ase" (Haitian Creole).

I close with prayers for our nation, its leaders, and a return to respectful dialogue across differences. While this episode offers glimpses into my personal story, I invite you to continue following this documentary series as I break my silence and share the truth of my experiences. Join me in choosing courage over fear and dignity over dehumanization.
