Thanks for taking the time to post a review. My personal beliefs shine through in everything I do and I am not ashamed of what makes me who I am. My hope is to inspire individuals to be themselves more freely not any sort of adaptation to my walk and journey that have made me who I am today. I would encourage you to share your truth and speak what resonates with your spirit to whoever is open to receiving it. That is what others will remember and your legacy will out live you. God bless you 🙏🏾

February 6, 2020Testament spoke a GL Roberts CVI on February 6, 2020 for about 45 minutes. From my perspective as an audience member he was awesome. As a teacher I liked his stage presence, and his conscious effort to offer and make connections to our diverse audience. Speaking to our entire school as part of Black History month, Testament's purpose, lived experiences, and energy, felt authentic, meaningful, and inspiring. Thanks Testament!
