24 SEP 2018 · Gospel Artist Susan Charli was on the Tamika Hall Radio Show to discuss her single, "Lead Me." ABOUT SUSAN Born in Spanish Town, Jamaica, Susan Charli Small migrated to the United States of America at the age of 4 where she began attending The Church of Jesus Christ. Raised in church by her beloved grandmother, Yvonne Minnott, Susan was baptized at the tender age of 10 years old. In 1992, she became a member of True United Church of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania under the leadership of Pastor Shawn D. Bartley where she would spend her childhood and teenage years being divinely groomed for ministry. For many years, Susan served faithfully as Youth Ministry Leader and Worship Leader and by studying to show herself approved, was elevated to Evangelist in 2003 and again to Minister in 2012 and has continued flourishing in ministry. ​Susan has had the opportunity to facilitate numerous workshops and conferences throughout the tri-state area. Additionally, she has served as worship leader for well known ministries in Philadelphia such as The First Baptist of Oakeola, Church of Christian Compassion, Holy Temple of Deliverance, Acts of Random Kindness Christian Center, along with many others. In the process of leading others in worship over the years, the Lord laid it upon Susan's heart to pen her own melody to Him - and along with composer and producers, Keran Sabir and Shawn Bartley, she wrote a song called "Lead Me", which she released in May 2018. This anthem of worship is one of many to come from the heart of this worshiper. ABOUT THE SINGLE Lead Me, the debut single by Susan Charli, is a poetic symphony of worship. Revealed in the lyrics are the heart and soul of a passionate worshipper and prolific worship leader. Susan Charli withholds nothing; she is a poured-out vessel, whose purpose is evident as you become engulfed in this worship experience. Lead Me draws you into an intimate conversation with God. The composition exudes both longing and rejoicing. It pulls you into His presence, and into a posture of“Yes.”You will find yourself in a place where fears yield, doubts subside and hope rises as you surrender to His will. This is not just another song; it is the heart-song of every believer who wants more of God. Lead Me is Abba's will for you, set to rhythm, calling you to trust where He is leading. It is a defining moment for all worshipers, and will become your anthem as you yield your yes to Him. For more info visit: SUSANCHARLI.COM To contact email: contact@susancharli.com

17 SEP 2018 · Joyell Johnson of Harp & Sword Co. appeared on the Tamika Hall Radio Show. ABOUT JOYELL: Joyell is a racial and gender justice strategist, educator, and restorative justice practitioner. Her professional background is in education, reproductive justice, international civil and human rights law, race and equity, transitional justice, community outreach, and reconciliation. She has worked with the Harvard Kennedy School of Government, UN Special Tribunal for Lebanon, government agencies, nonprofits, and public schools in Baltimore, Eastern Shore, Boston, and abroad. Joyell combines her eight years of experience in education, ten years in nonprofit organizations, and seven years of social justice advocacy to create harp + sword, which focuses on bringing equitable change and joy in tandem by using restorative justice cross-generationally. Additionally, Joyell currently serves as a board member for Community Law in Action and member of Circle of Restorative Initiatives for Maryland. Joyell received her B.A. in Black Studies from Washington College and her J.D. from New England Law | Boston. She utilizes her legal and public interest skills to address the intersections of race/ethnicity, equity, gender, incarceration, and health. ABOUT HARP & SWORD CO: www.harpandsword.co After working in education for seven years, the nonprofit sector for nearly ten years, traveling and working in twelve countries (and counting), we noticed a common narrative -- we live as individuals rather than community members by merely existing together instead of living together. This separation can especially be seen inter-generationally and across racial lines. For women and girls, the absence of intentional spaces for our identities and experiences to be fully embraced is far too prevalent. And so, harp + sword began. By focusing on the marginalization of women and girls of color, we tackled all related forms of marginalization impacting various underrepresented groups. In addition to addressing institutional and systemic issues, harp + sword curates joy for women and girls to show up as their whole selves. harp + sword is partially inspired by Zora Neale Hurston, a pioneer in racial and gender dialogue, folklore, and culture during the Harlem Renaissance. Hurston chose to hold space for herself in a world that would not return the favor. Connect with us about bringing a training, consultation, or workshop to your area! We are currently based in Baltimore, Maryland with domestic and international availability.
