Season 3 - Episode 11: Malcolm Slandered: In Collaboration with the Make It Plain Podcast The Ambassador Podcast

    • Society & Culture

This week, we are presenting an episode from our friends, Phillip Holmes and Taelor Gray, and their “insightful and challenging” podcast Make It Plain. In this episode of the Make It Plain podcast, host Phillip Holmes and Taelor Gray discuss how Malcolm X was slandered. Holmes and Gray reflect on how Malcolm X’s quote was frighteningly accurate and how this perception of him is alive and well today. They explore the motives for this misrepresentation and why Malcolm X predicted that the press would be the culprit rather than the government or FBI. Phillip closes by sharing a story about how he was recently slandered to serve as an illustration of what they believe are the effects of slander and ends with biblical applications regarding how Christians should view slander.

Phillip Holmes is a marketing executive, podcast host, and owner of Highest Good Media. Phillip is married with children and his family are members of Redeemer Church.

His wife, Jasmine Holmes, has a recently released book called Carved in Ebony that invites you into a world that tells a history that doesn’t exclude the contributions of black women. It will educate you on many black women of faith who teach us about the intersections of faith and education, birth, privilege, opportunity, and much much more … What a resource to engage in if you’re looking for something to honor and celebrate black history month.

Taelor Gray currently serves as pastor at Linden Life Fellowship while doubling as a hip-hop artist. He is a husband to an amazing wife and the father of two children.

Host: Jarryd Cole

Collaborators: Phillip Holmes, Taelor Gray
