OMG, I remember Darius. He did a reenactment of Frederick Douglas's 'What the 4th of July Means to the Slave' on the 4th of July in DC at Douglas's historic home. This guy is amazing...phenomenal actor.

That's a Masonic principal he gave a whole sermon on. All Masons who are initiated in the First Degree of Masonry are taught this principle, but he truly has an Supreme overstanding of it.
