MLK40 WE GOT NOW: “We Have Nothing Else to Prove. We Have More to Do; A Movement. A Message. Monetization:

63 YEARS AGO, THE DREAM WAS DECLARED.

But as August 28, 2026, came to a close, another question is being asked:

WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE DREAM?

The Dream was declared.
The Mountaintop was witnessed.
The Deposit was made.
The First Forty has given us the record.

Now the Next Forty has begun.

And that journey takes us back to Memphis—and to a message:

THE AUTOPSY OF A SAINT

What happened to what was inside the man after the body was gone?

AFTER THE DREAM...63

WIFM — WHAT’S IN IT FOR ME?

WHAT’S IN YOU—AND WHAT CAN IT BECOME?

Every generation eventually asks a practical question:

What’s in it for me?

MLK40 | WE GOT NOW does not dismiss that question. We redirect it.

The greater question is:

WHAT’S IN YOU?

And what can it become when it is discovered, developed, disciplined and put to work?

That leads directly to:

YOUR NIL. YOUR G.O.D.

YOUR NIL
Your Name. Image. Likeness.

YOUR G.O.D.
Your God Ordained Destiny.

Genesis 1:26 gives us the foundational framework:

GOD CREATED AND CERTIFIED HIS CREATION.

NAME. IMAGE. LIKENESS.

We make an important distinction:

GOD CERTIFIES HIS CREATION.
MLK40/TCAA CERTIFIES THE PREPARATION.

The objective is not merely to ask young people and students of all ages what they want to get. We help them identify what God has already placed in their hands—their gifts, talents, creativity, knowledge, experiences, relationships, intellectual property and capacity to serve.

WHAT’S IN YOUR HANDS?

That is where WIFM becomes more than What’s In It For Me?

It becomes:

WHAT’S IN ME FOR THE WORLD?

WGN + WE GOT TALENT

A NATIONAL SHOWCASE FOR PREPARED WGN AMBASSADORS

MOVEMENT. MESSAGE. MONETIZATION.

TRANSFORMING CULTURE BACK TO THE CREATOR.

Movement gives people something meaningful to belong to.

Message gives them something consequential to communicate.

Monetization helps prepared participants learn how their gifts, creativity, intellectual property, networks and NIL can create legitimate economic opportunity.

This is where WE GOT NOW becomes something participants can DO, not merely something they can say.

WGN + WE GOT TALENT creates a national platform through which prepared students, artists, athletes, content creators, innovators, entrepreneurs and other emerging talent can develop and ultimately showcase what is in their hands.

And underneath the entire platform remains the biblical order:

THE CREATOR → THE CREATION → THE GIFT → THE PREPARATION → THE WORK → THE FRUIT → THE INCREASE.

“YOU DON’T NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING. JUST EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW.” — TCAA

That is an educational philosophy for MLK40.education: give participants the knowledge, preparation, relationships and tools necessary to take the next right step toward their God Ordained Destiny.

Nobody Owns Anybody. God Owns Everybody. Nobody Owns God.

ABOUT MLK40.EDUCATION

MLK40 marks both a celebration and a stewardship assignment.

In tribute to the first forty years of the Federal Holiday honoring Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (1986–2026), and in recognition of the beginning of the next forty years (2026–2066), The College of Aspiring Artists (TCAA) has established MLK40 as an initiative dedicated to preserving, advancing, and applying Dr. King's leadership legacy for future generations.

Founded by Arthur L. Hunt, Jr., whose stewardship includes forty years of production, media, educational, and public engagement work—including leading Memphis observances during the first three years of the federal MLK Holiday beginning in 1989 in partnership with community leaders' notable leaders and musical talents including MLK Family, Dr. E.V. Hill, Actor/Minister Clifton Davis. Hunt went on to Atlanta and DC and other key markets producing MLK Legacy Salutes to include publishing the MLK Commemorative Legacy Bible which was Dedicated at the MLK Memorial in DC. Media outlets including WMC-TV5 and WDIA—WREG-TV and many others. MLK40 begins with a declaration of custodianship for the next forty years under the banner: WE GOT NOW.

WE GOT NOW.

This is all about custodianship and accountability. First to God. Then to being our brother's and sisters' keepers. What is the now and next generation needing to know from the leaders in past and present generations. We Got Now (WGN) presents the strength of learning from biblical and proven laws and lessons that gives a blueprint that helps to optimize best routes and ways to achieve God-ordained destinies. WGN is according to the laws and values of God being transferred to today's culture. We see freedom from God fully expressed in today's world. And thus, we further proclaim and signify because of God allowing us to see a manifest in scripture, 'the last shall be first and the first shall be last.' Matthew 20:16.

We declare: "We Ain't Going Back"

This is the pure and ultimate mission and success contained in the WGN Movement Initiative.

You will want to stay locked into this one. The Playbook combines over 40 years of direct study from the biblical outline of prophecy to promise from the author.

For now, we commend the works of God in Chicago and Memphis especially. The Playbook reveals how God's use of Rev. Dr. King and prophecy to reveal how truly, The Last Have Become First and the First Have Become Last. It's not degrading but for certain signifies God is not a Respecter of Person. God in this Playbook reveals His moves over the course of time that assures all of His Creation, that He is in control of everything and everybody: On Juneteenth 2026, we joined the Obama Presidential Center with a Salute from Memphis.
