Reverend William Barber at DNC 2016

[@IACosmoGirl]

One of the most inspiring speeches of the DNC. A must listen! Very moving, righteous and compassionate to all. Wow.

[@Uhpgradde]

Thin this was the Highlight of the Convention. This preacher really brought the spirit out into the attendees and It was so uplifting to see how much they were moved.

[@Neilhuny]

Superb speech! Very rousing, inspiring and just!

[@marcusquinn9039]

that's my pastor!!! Goldsboro nc finest preaching !!

[@Panamaschild]

I thought Biden and Bloomberg's speech's would be my favorite, but Rev. Barber knocked this one out of the park for me! This is just what I needed to hear. This is the message our country desperately needs!

[@imoaquaisua7374]

the whole world needed this speech

[@verabriggs4958]

[@awrayfield]

[@awrayfield]

[@revlo1557]

PREACH! Best moment of the DNC!

[@sharongray901]

[@kenhill3618]

Australian and mesmerised. Never seen heard anyone so powerful. He was incredibly poetic thundering moving.

[@frantzwoldyamazan8521]

I can`t stop watching this.

[@deedeebee9191]

Awesome...the power of love.

[@CathyJCross57]

That was CHURCH, people! Pure CHURCH! 100% Bernie Bro! So glad he campaigned with Bernie!

[@Pinksugarelephant]

Bernie Bros is kind of an insulting name for those who did not transition into Hillary's fold along with Bernie. Reverend Barber is a true Bernie supporter!

[@bboughton1]

Didn't Sanders supporters get asked not to come to Barber's moral march?

[@erikaalexander2925]

Reverend Barber was a Hillary supporter. Full stop. Please look it up.

[@oskarmac14]

Your lips to God's ears. Incredible speech. Time to heed the words!!!

[@angelinejohnson9511]

I love watching real elocution. See how he keeps his eyes ON us, isn't reading a teleprompter or notes he walked up with. Oh we need him.

[@antonycabrera6849]

This speech is heart pounding. Amazing

[@ceciliafmcnary121]

Shock America with Love Just and Mercy not Hate

[@quintabrownderiona702]

With the good ole Moral defibrillator...

[@dlj7770]

What he said! I'd loved to have been the next speaker and walked on to say "Hi, I'm an atheist. We don't get our morals from any supernatural divinity, there is no such thing as a soul... but otherwise... what he said." Dr. William Barber is my new hero.

[@allofmi1]

One of the true stars of the 2016 Convention.

[@xAdante95x]

Incomparable speech!

[@gdep3611]

Love Dr. Barber. Praying everyday for his health, strength and stamina. Bless you Sir as you preach the truth.

[@WeeWeeJumbo]

_the only one who could ever reach me was the sweet-talkin' son of a preacher-man_

[@verabriggs4958]

yessss

[@dp562]

Dr. Barber you made us all so proud of being part of this great nation, great democracy that opens her arms for everyone with a good heart. I didn't catch what he said at the very end though.

[@quintabrownderiona702]

I heard hallelujah...

[@Fatherflot64]

This and Biden's were my favorite speeches of the convention.

[@yourmother3207]

This is a real Christian.

[@gloriaspringer5992]

There will always be negativity and hate and I appreciate his efforts to bring people together. Obviously, there are some who never want to come together regardless of who wins. Let us all VOTE our conscious, that is not an insult.

[@smiller4659]

I love this. The DNC did it right. These events are supposed to inspire and tap into the better part of our nature.

[@eche1492]

preach doc.

[@chrismac5198]

The first lady's speech got all the press and this was virtually ignored. Unbelievable. I'm not highly religious, but I know a good speech when I hear one.

[@cjburch63]

Having William Barber as NC resident and leader of moral conviction is one of the few things were proud of in NC these days!

[@sing4peace]

Preach it, Reverend Barber! My Grandfather's name was Barber. I hope that makes us related. Blood relative or no, I know this, you are my Brother.

[@stephanie162963]

Great words Gary. .. thank you.

[@wdcobb1950]

All inclusive convention

[@indianluvsguitar]

Amazing man with an amazing message!

[@AnbroBR]

As a "former" conservative who has been educated in the TRUTH of the real history of our country and its two political parties, I completely agree with everything that Rev. Barber is saying. I am very afraid that all his words will go in one of Rodham's ears and right out the other. I don't think that she gives a damn about poor people, or even the remaining individuals in the American middle class...only fellow rich persons such as herself and her husband...

[@gloriacotton8768]

Thank you for posting this! Love it!

[@suryaceg]

Jesus - a brown skinned Palestinian Jew... 👍

[@CathyJCross57]

Truth.

[@PaulinhoCanadense]

In the new testament, text defines Jesus as a Jewish resident of Judea. The Roman Empire changed the name of “Judea” to “Palestine” one hundred years after Jesus’s death.

[@roberth5708]

you wasn't suppose to hear that!!! :) ,because the real real truth might come out!

[@coz7791]

it's racist to say he was brown skinned. Many Jews had fair skin, red hair and blue eyes. All that we know is that HE was Jewish. To say "brown skinned" is to say HE was brown,black = racism. Also, He was not a Palestinian, that is false doctrine, just saying y'all!! "Ye shall know the TRUTH, and the TRUTH shall set you free".

[@ryancummins8067]

+COZ You are on the wrong page you racist, the physical description of the Israelites and Jesus is in the scriptures. Go away and listen to a evil satanic Trump rally.

[@sunni7273]

Awesome!

[@Ashmedkella]

Wow,just wow.

[@bardicpearl]

"Jesus -- a brown-skin Palestinian Jew." Exactly.

[@1jenks008]

Amen...

[@fayemcdonald8159]

Wow!

[@Deordra121]

What was the music they played for him in the beginning?

[@dstory128]

This wasn't a speech, it was a sermon

[@beverlyrudolph9269]

I'd never allow you to lay your hands on my head to pray for me not even in the next life time!

[@lynnettegriffinting1292]

WOW.

[@L.X.MoonLight]

Republicans got triggered when he said Jesus was a brown skinned Palestinian Jew

[@polymathy]

So did the democrats, they denied to recognize the occupation of Palestinians in Israel in their platform.

[@L.X.MoonLight]

+Jordan McElderry see what I mean. triggered!

[@polymathy]

+L.X. Moon lol, I'm a socialist not a republican.

[@L.X.MoonLight]

+Jordan McElderry be like, "omg, you assumed my party affiliation, I'm triggered!"

[@rosofficesolutionsinc1572]

i think everyone paused a sec to absorb what he just said!

[@landon1796]

WOW

[@davewalker9926]

Wow

[@hollywilson8033]

Yessuh!!!!

[@joelloua]

:D Oh where to start. Obviously a very well spoken man, as the son of a preacher, I can say that he does his profession justice. Very good speech, very motivational, with the Southern African American church feel to it, I live in Texas so I see this at least once a week. But to preach one thing (or against something) while using rhetoric that accomplishes the very thing you are preaching against, my goodness, this guy is good! The plethora of twisted erroneous lines like "I am theologically conservative liberal evangelical biblicist". Even if you explain what you mean by that it doesn't change the fact that the initial phrase is logically flawed on at least 3 different levels. The cherry picking of verses completely taken out of context to serve (in this case) Bernie's social welfare presidential campaign. If he wasn't dressed like a preacher I would have thought he was just some atheist who wanted to see how well he could defend Christianity and supports Bernie Sanders. "worried about how some people are so worried about what God says so little about but care so little about what God says so much about" yes, yes, well said, typical human hypocrisy, both parties have it, all races have it, both genders have it and it's a fantastic point with which I fully agree. However, as a self-proclaimed "theological conservative" with a doctorate, he ought to care just as deeply for the parts of the Bible that "God talks so little about" as much as he does for the parts he talks so much about, after all, that is essentially theological conservatism ( along with "holding to the deep values that we ought to 'do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with our God'". Choosing which parts of the Bible to care more about depending on the situation - or current political affiliation - can be translated as the modern liberal evangelical, which apparently he is that as well. Objectively, the man does a fantastic job, I could learn a lot from his skill and use of words. And before I get a bunch of negative comments and dislikes, his overall message did not go pass me ( the example of the heart was brilliant!) but how can you go up there, claim to be speaking strictly as a preacher and then present Hillary as the moral spearhead of the nation? Preachers ought to be good judges of character and moral examples and not even CNN can defend Hillary. And before some of you tell me to "think beyond politics and look at the bigger picture" and etc, his message is absolutely more political than it is about the supposed moral reconstruction of America. If it wasn't then he should have started with intraracial crimes within our race in America, and then the intra-party crimes in the Democratic party and then on to the nation. This is also known in church as removing the log from one's own eye, any preacher would know this. Queue the negative replies and dislikes...

[@meaut1]

***(Listen Up All You Hard-Hearted Haters)*** "We have a heart problem in America." "This prayer/speech" is precisely (why) I, am a very proud and lifelong voting and volunteering Democrat. Listen closely. You may just learn something of great importance. -oO (

[@Polishwm]

Radical talk.Communist to me.Revolution.

[@jordanrioscreations]

Didn't know they still made dudes like this.

[@Babykodofficial]

Bernie!

[@mobinshah1]

RNC was an embarrassment to this nation.

[@speakonianjny5004]

Makes me more religious

[@brixandblox]

FIRST COMMENT. GO HILLARY. BOO TRUMP THE @!$# HEAD

[@MsVee804]

Take this W with pride.

[@ytmember1]

God wants preachers to preach the truth, not lies that say God is fine with homosexuality and abortion. (Leviticus 18:22, Romans 1:26, Proverbs 6:16,17). God never wanted preachers to use His Word for worldly political gain. But if you don't know your Bible you can't know the difference between true and false preachers like this one, who just wants your political approval. May God help us and may we READ our Bibles to protect ourselves from deceivers.

[@KellyJK07]

When religious conviction is a defense of abortion-then he is quite deceived.

[@jsphotos]

There is not one word in the Christian Bible that condemns abortion as murder, nor did Jesus speak on the topic. In fact, those who make their anti-abortion claims as the "word of God" are apostate, given the foregoing facts.

[@bob51502001]

I hope Barber the First was better. What he isn't saying, is his 501c3 not only puts faith in the Gov't in liu of Jesus, but he is "prohibited" from speaking against Govt.

[@ReflectiveMethodology]

you realize every speaker from the remembrance project, at the rnc, broke the rules of the 501c3. the fec and others have never enforced these, but the left, like sanders and jill stein have been pushing to make that a reality. both the corporate right and left though have been working against that.

[@thechannel5471]

Sounds good to man, tickles their ears, I would be more concerned with what the Heavenly Father thinks. Democratic platform stands for abortion, no man of God can support this. What will you say on that day when you stand before Him? To all that hate what I'm saying, what will you say on that day?

[@seanthompson5077]

Jesus would never, never justify abortion. No how, now way. Hypocrisy. How is this man a preacher?

[@joelloua]

Sean common now! The man clearly said he's a theologically conservative evangelical liberal :D. HAHAHA I totally agree with you man.

[@bigtruckdriva901]

Cause God is the final judge not man... Jesus says judge not least he be judged... It's isn't our place to judge other for their actions that's what God job is we are to leave it to God and love them despite their decisions...

[@thesheepdog]

LGBT rights? What bible,does he read?????
