The Start of a Healing Conversation: an Approach to Healing a People Who Have Been: Uprooted, Disconnected, Disjointed, and Dehumanized by the System of S Edgar Gosa

Publisher Marketing: We Know the Problems. Let's Talk Solutions. You do not have to look far to see the challenges faced by the African American Community. Soaring unemployment, violence and increasing health issues have become an accepted way of life for many. We hear and take part in many conversations about the problems. It is time to put more emphasis on the solutions. Edgar Gosa has seen it all. Born in Carrollton, Mississippi and later moving to Chicago, Illinois, Edgar has experienced both the joys and pains of living in a rural and inner city environment. His experience in the military has allowed him to observe life in other parts of the world. Serving for over 30 years with the Chicago Police Department, Edgar has seen all sides of the criminal justice system and its effects on the African American Community. Edgar, like many of us, is familiar with the problems. He desires that we move from talking about problems to talking solutions. Each one of us must get focused and directed toward improving the situation and to do our personal part in making our community a better place to live. We must take action that will heal us and make us a whole and complete people again. We know that we are hurting. It's time for a healing conversation.
