Son of Slaves & Son of Slave Owners Say: 'We Can Rise Above Racism in America'

African-American Will Ford and white Matt Lockett never expected to become warriors against the racial divide wounding our country. Still, they believe God brought them together miraculously for a profound purpose. Now they're reaching out to a hurting nation in an effort to give it the kind of unity and love they've found, that rises above color.<br />
<br />
Their story together began when the Lord spoke separately to Will and Matt to go to the Lincoln Memorial the same day. There, at a prayer meeting, they met right where Martin Luther King Jr. gave his "I Have a Dream" speech, the one in which he said he had a dream that "the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slave owners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood." <br />
