Synopsis:

Holy Lockdown: Does the Church Limit Black Progress Why are there many churches, yet major problems in Black communities Why are Blacks amongst the most Jesus-Praising people in the world, yet the most fragmented and economically dependent Is there a correlation between high praising and low productivity Holy Lockdown addresses the paradox that exists within the Black community. One that reflects the abundance of Black churches coupled with the abundance of Black problems. There are approximately 85,000 predominately Black churches in this country, meaning, we could have 1,700 Black churches in every state! Holy Lockdown takes a critical and long overdue look at the psychological impact the church and sermonic rhetoric has made on the Black collective, and it explores the possibility of the church as being a contributing factor to many social problems facing Blacks.
