Henry Louis Gates: The Black Church Was Born Fighting Anti-Black Racism | Morning Joe | MSNBC
There is no substitute for doing the right thing. Many of the tribes were totally OK with black slavery, so long as the whites left them alone. That did not work out too good, did it? There is no end to human evil.
The spirit of Gods dwelleth not in temples made with hands Ecclesiastics
Exactly right! And, black Americans have never ever been given anything. They’ve earned every freedom they have!
Why did you cut him off in the middle of a sentence? That was rude.
I can’t wait to see this on PBS.
Christianity was forced on black people it wasn’t voluntary and besides that they believed slaves didn’t have souls so why would they give them a religion to save their soul my guest is to control them. They wouldn’t give anything at all so why would they give them a good religion?
Dems invented the Klan.
BLM = RACISM
The black church is always driving positive change in the US. Of course the racists will comment below even when the facts are out there. People who were oppressed through slavery and inequality could only hope for light at the end of the tunnel admist the hate, injustice and systemic racism they faced. They used the church to heal. Now they can access mental health thankfully to continue to heal.
“a black Christian is like a black person with no f***king memory.” – Chris Rock
Christianity is what’s wrong with the world.
Spend the morning finding out how the election was stolen. The fact facebook is trying to hide this from you and youtube banned it should be all the proof you need. Is democracy worth 2 hours of your time so you can actually know the truth?
go to rumble dot com and search for the “Absolute truth” documentary. If I post anymore detail youtube will auto-delete comment.
Spread this message all over facebook, do not stop spamming it. Fascism will not win….. I have to keep mixing up this post so youtube will not delete it.
A Divided Nation Agrees on One Thing: Many People Want a Gun
The irony! Hahahah! A black church fighting racism by being a black church hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahajaha!!!!
*edit* how about just be a church and preach love and peace. The idiocy is real folks.
We must continue to fight racism in any way we can… let’s do this together as the American people. We’re all human
Amen!
I listened to this segment this morning. What I found was legalism trying to be incorporated into the Gospel. Jesus Christ was a Torah Observant Jew that is who he spoke with (Israel) concerning the Kingdom of GOD coming near. The rejection of their Messiah was then taken to the Gentiles who the Apostle Paul was instrumental in bringing them the word. Every sin and injustice was completed at the foot of the Cross for all time, that is why Galatians 3:8 says-“For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed and heirs according to the promise.…”
This comment has nothing to do with this video, it’s just a fun fact for people looking through the comments, did you know modern body armor was invented by a pizza delivery guy in Detroit
