GRumpy Ol’ Prophet
In the final episode of Season 4, Follow Me and Subscribe, Marta and Mandy are joined by Starlette Thomas. Starlette is a self-described "Grumpy Ol' Prophet," and her podcast, The Raceless Gospel, takes her listeners to church and to a virtual church where she and her guests tackle that taboo trinity— race, religion and politics.

Author, activist, visual artist and race abolitionist, Starlette is a womanist in ministry and the principal architect of a raceless world. A pastor, denominational leader and clergy coach, she is a natural shepherd of words and people, leading both to their authentic and best expression. She is a graduate of both Buffalo State College and Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School. An unrepentant academician and bibliophile, she is presently pursuing a Doctor of Ministry degree at Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C., studying ecclesiology, the intersections of gender, politics and race and their interplay for a transformative spirituality. She regularly writes on the socio-political construct of race and its longstanding membership in the Church in North America as a contributing columnist at Good Faith Media and on her blog www.racelessgospel.com.
