| Whitney Houston Homegoing Celebration |
This is a commemoration post to Whitney Elizabeth Houston, Pop Icon, Singer, Actress, Wife, Mother, Daughter, Niece, Goddaughter and Trailblazer for African American Entertainers.
Cissy Houston, Whitney's Mom made the decision to have Whitney's Homegoing celebration at The New Hope Baptist Church in Newark, New Jersey. We thank Cissy Houston for bold faith in her God. The world went to church today on Saturday, February 19, 2012 with the single camera inside the church. Cissy Houston dared to express to the world her faith in Jesus, as well as Whitney's faith in the Lord. The New Hope Baptist Church is the foundation of the Houston family's spiritual life. This is the faith community into which Whitney grew and flourished as a singer. Her mother, Cissy was the choir director there.

| Whitney Houston 1963 to 2012 |
It is commendable that the Whitney's success did not effect her relationship with her Savior or her church community. She remained grounded in her spiritual roots of the church and tied to the Christian family of New Hope Baptist Church. This speaks volumes for the character of Whitney Houston.
CNN was forced to broadcast an African American Homegoing Celebration which showcased the faith and church of Whitney Houston's family during African American History Month. I am unsure if CNN will rebroadcast the services because the Black Church is not something that the media considers important enough to broadcast to the world. The media lacks understanding or compassion for the Black Church and Whitney's family to celebrate her life. CNN had Don Lemon at the Homegoing Celebration focusing on the negative side of Whitney's past. Then media continues to distort the life of Whitney Houston during a time of mourning for a family which choses to uplift the memory and celebrate the loss of Whitney Houston.
My instincts lead me to tweet my observations of Whitney's Homegoing Celebration to the world. My tweets were favorited and retweeted by a Christian woman in Christchurch, New Zealand. I also was retweeted by Gospel Singer Israel Houghton in Singapore. When I saw that Piers Morgan, a British anchor was one of the moderators with Soledad O"Brien, I knew that the story needed to be told with context that only a Black Christian could give without the restraints of the media moguls.
These are my tweets and retweets from the #WhitneyCNN chat feed on twitter. Twitter conversation is read from bottom to top, so scroll down at the bottom of the page to begin reading my observations from the Whitney Houston Homegoing Celebration.
