The Sistas discuss that MURDER IS A SCIENCE…..GUNSHOT RESIDUE, TIME OF DEATH, CAUSE OF DEATH. Medical examiners are the secret weapon of every detective. Once the body is found the real work of solving crimes begin. Who was the best at this game?
An African American woman moved home to take care of her dying mother giving up the opportunity to experience a world beyond segregation. Zoraida Hughes Williams finds that some things have changed about her hometown of Fort Worth, Texas while some have stayed the same, like Hell’s Half Acre, an area where saloons, prostitution and gambling runs wild. Like most of the residents, she wants to keep her head down and stay away from trouble, but it comes in the unlikely form of an Anglo Baptist preacher. He messes up everything and almost gets them killed.
The Sistas take on one of the stories they know the best. Law and Order has been on for more than two decades.
There are millions of stories in the city and Law and Order has covered them all. The long running series about crime and punishment has told countless stories in the US and UK. Ripping pages from the headlines and current events, this new Law and Order has put its spin on some of the most heinous and unusual crimes in the world. Our Law and Order experts (Sistas!) tell you if the latest one is a hit or miss.
You may have noticed that each month I have posted a word as an affirmation. It has been an attribute one can develop that will help them live a full life. As I have posted, I have experienced.
This past month’s word has been patience.
During the month of August I have had the opportunity to practice patience. It has been stretched to limits I didn’t even know I had. Daily as I waited for things to happen, I was reminded of the character I was developing. It was not my intention to practice this. It has not been easy, but it has been fun.
I have not been waiting on a word from a doctor, or a job or some miraculous event.
It has just been everyday things. But there have been other attributes, like love.
and joy
In the beginning, I was not paying attention or making direct connections to what was happening around me and the words for each month. But as I experience more of them, it really makes me conscious of which words are chosen.
One of my favorites…
But the truth is I have loved all of them. They are a part of me and I guess my hope is that they will be a part of you too.
