The Black American community at large can trust President Joe Biden to fulfill his campaign commitments of ensuring that Black people would be better positioned to prosper in the U.S., according to the man chosen to give the benediction at the Jan. 20 inauguration.
âWe need a president who is after the heart of God,â Rev. Sylvester Beaman, of Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Wilmington, Delaware, told NBC News. âIn these terrible times, if anybody can bring healing and reconciliation to a divided country, if we give him room to work, Joe Biden can be that person.â
Born in Niagara Falls Memorial Hospital in upstate New York and raised by a single mother in a family of nine children, Beaman rose through the African Methodist Episcopal Church ranks.
