⚾🌾 DDC celebrates Native American culture with the Diamondbacks!
DDC was proud to attend Native American Recognition Night at Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks. The evening was a vibrant celebration of culture, featuring powerful performances by Native American drum groups and dancers. Indigenous groups from across the U.S. took the field, proudly honoring their heritage under the bright lights of baseball’s biggest stage.
A big thank you to the #Diamondbacks for hosting such a meaningful event. We were proud to join in celebrating diversity and honoring the rich traditions that make our communities strong! 🌄 🌿

Today, I want to highlight the importance of being intentional in recognizing and rectifying historical injustices. Major League Baseball (MLB) has taken a significant step by including the statistics of Black players who were previously excluded due to segregation. This long-overdue acknowledgment not only honors the incredible talent of these athletes but also sets a precedent for doing the right thing.
One standout example is Josh Gibson, whose remarkable achievements were never fully recognized. In fact, Gibson's stats surpass those of legends like Babe Ruth. By including his and other Black players' records, we are finally giving them the recognition they deserve.
Let's continue to strive for fairness and inclusivity in ALL aspects of life!
We still have a long way to go!!

Investing money in underserved Black communities in the USA has the potential to not only bring economic benefits but also contribute to the development of the sport, and bring the US closer to the level of European football. The increasing representation of Black players in the American national soccer team reflects the progress that has been made in providing equal opportunities based on merit.
This increased representation has the power to inspire more young Black kids to pursue soccer and envision themselves succeeding in the sport based on their skills and abilities. By investing in these communities, providing access to training facilities, coaching, and resources, the USA can further nurture the talent pool and create opportunities for aspiring young players to compete on merit. Additionally, fostering a competitive environment in soccer can have positive social and cultural impacts, as it encourages individuals to strive for excellence and breaks down traditional stereotypes. Investing in underserved Black communities is not only an investment in the individuals but also in the overall growth and potential of American soccer.

The 25th of May, 2020, is a date I will never forget. The tragic death of George Floyd was a powerful reminder of the systemic racism that continues to plague our society.
This moment ignited a global movement and underscored the necessity for each of us to stand up and speak out against racism.
As we reflect on the impact of George Floyd’s death, it’s crucial to continue the conversation and find actionable ways to combat racism in our communities and workplaces.
I encourage everyone to watch this insightful Q&A with Torin Ellis, a tribute to George Floyd, which delves into these very issues.
Think about how you can be a part of the change:
- 𝗘𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗬𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗳: Learn about the history and ongoing impact of racism.
- 𝗦𝗽𝗲𝗮𝗸 𝗨𝗽: Use your voice to call out injustice whenever you see it.
- 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻: Implement anti-racist policies in your workplace, support organizations fighting for racial justice, and engage in community initiatives aimed at equity.
Let's honor George Floyd’s memory by committing to real, lasting change. Each step we take toward mitigating racism brings us closer to a world where equity is the norm, not the exception.

Why leave them around. Why leave them free to fight and bring disaster on us another day. What are we afraid of? They are counting on us hesitating and waiting on someone else to act first or continue to believe this cant be happening until they release the next virus and declare Marshall law, digital currency and ID to remove your wealth, break you and make you submit. Evil is always up to the same thing, complete control over all wealth and people, all power. Until we realize where this is going and act accordingly, we are just cattle headed to the slaughter with our little tractor protest buying them more time. Im grateful for the protest but its like occupy Wall St or a campus Berkley protest about Putin. Results in nothing but a false sense of security!!!
All actions short of arresting all traitors to our country, USA and mankind fall short of preventing their plans to wipe us out. NUREMBERG....NUREMBERG...NUREMBERG...this includes all of these brain dead Satanic news propagandist being paid to lie and blame people of truth for the complete Satanic darkness and death coming soon from our very own Democrat Deep/Rino Uniparty State Cartel, WEF, WHO, NWO, UN, EU leadership. Only we Americans have the true power, freedom, means and ability to stop this dead...like permanently dead...like even make some constitutional changes. Some items in our constitution need to be permanent...none votable...1st and 2nd...others. They reflect Gods natural laws and those don't change. Define man, women, marriage and family.
Define American values and only allow Christians to teach, law enforcement, military, public office or own more than 35% of a corporation.
Not take anything away, en contrar...make it more powerful and secure. Prevent the enemies of God and truth from gaining influence and power...kind of Gods will and intent in the biblicsl context and history.
