The Dusty Crutchfield Women's Coalition was founded by Helen Ladsen immediately after her 2021 Brunswick Georgia Mayoral bid. The Coalition seeks to educate, organize and lead people from poverty to progress.
It's initial public effort was as a cosponsor of the Drapetomania Conference hosted in Brunswick Georgia in the Spring of 2022.
The comments on this post are open for a reason. We hope you will use them to answer the following three questions for us.
We look forward to hearing from you?

Taken from our home lands
so we could be your free hands
Your experiment in changing our character from being a human man left us working your sand day and night
That ain't right
Now your pretense is that slavery is out of sight
Well your lies about slavery being over can be seen, cause you drive a Land Rover
While we jog for our health
You run us down-kill us to keep your wealth
Tunis Campbell taught us well
Develop and control to keep from living from this kind of hell
Keep the Buckra from sitting a spell-
for he will declare your place his as well
Ask the native people about their pain
'cause they made that mistake and lost all they'd gained
"Hold to His hand, God's unchanging hand. Build your hopes on things eternal, hold to God's unchanging hand." - Jennie Bain Wilson
My most favorite episode of Good Times is Season 1 Episode 2: Black Jesus, where the Kid Dynamite- J.J Evans paints a portrait of Black Jesus which resembles Ned the Wino. Throughout the episode, matriarch Florida Evans contends with the blessings of Black Jesus and the oppression of blonde hair/blue eyed Jesus, relaying that the portrait rendered by young J.J was blasphemous.
Although filled with comedy, this episode speaks volumes to our conditions today, seeing the former as a nuisance and the latter as the remedy for our disintegrated communities. With this observation in mind, we are likened unto Saul in the 9th chapter of Acts- an offender of the brethren.
Acts 9:1) And Saul, yet breathing out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, went unto the high priest,
2) And desired of him letters to Damascus to the synagogues, that if he found any of this way, whether they were men or women, he might bring them bound unto Jerusalem.
3) As he journeyed, he came near Damascus and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven.
4) And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Saul, Saul, why persecuteth thou me?
Although Florida Evans meant well, the fact that she could not embrace a Black Jesus detoured her from seeing the Savior within. She, like most of us, had trouble seeing pass the scales of oppression that lingered in her eyes. No matter how many great things were manifested throughout this particular episode, Mrs. Evans found it quite difficult to acknowledge the greatness within herself, husband & children which stifled any chances of unity within the home that would ultimately lead to unity in their proximity.
