March 27th, 2019 - Sharing a message addressing the need to work across faiths to develop social and moral change, Repairers of the Breach President and Senior Lecturer, Rev. Dr. William J. Barber, II, speaks at Congregation Emanu El in Houston, TX.

[@veronicabell1550]

Preach Rev. Barber, the truth is real and will stand.

[@rebeleazy9221]

We need a man like this running the nation. A man that has the spirit of the Lord in him.

[@wilderjai]

The moral clarity is why Rev. William Barber transcends most men of faith of our time in the tradition of MLK.

[@raymondfeast9649]

I see a lot of thumbs down, this pastor is speaking truth. Those who commented with a thumbs down don’t like truth, because it doesn’t affect you.

I truly believe that there are true men and women that love the Creator, but still operate in a highly religious system.?Only the one true Creator can bring truth

A Prayer for REV. BARBER,,,Lord God, please keep REV BARBER safe and healthy, please Bless him too, in JESUS NAME AMEN ! Oh YES,,, THANK YOU LORD for him too!

Listened to it twice tonight. Had me jumping around in my kitchen. Demand progressive change in our nation.

[@schoolcoach1]

Da$$ skippy!

[@CyberDjPEACE]

I believe in God but not religion. with THAT said, I truly admire and respect this godly man that speaks with clarity, truth, conviction and knowledge with respect to his faith . I pray his days be long and sorrow free and that he continues to issue such a clarion call and serve as a moral compass to those that would follow him.

[@johnnyrfinley9626]

"Religion has come be to be vehicle whereby any political party will manipulate for the purpose of ensuring =- the sheep will all run off the cliff- and therefore making sure that whomever gets their monies worth." Those who refuse to stand for something will fall for anything.

[@jamesmoses6092]

Amen to that

[@Hoosierhedgewitch]

Thank you Reverend Barber! You are inspirational and give me hope. I am so appalled by the far right and those Christian Evangelicals who contort religion as justification for their hypocrisy and hate speech. While not Christian, I believe in Jesus teachings and God, and I certainly believe you are a messenger of both. Keep up the good work - it is never done! I highly respect you.

[@fothgt]

Rubbish! You just don’t like when evangelicals call abortion or homosexuality what it is, sin! So you find a left leaning preacher who has fallen by the wayside Biblically as this pastor has! A preachers first responsibility is to proclaim Jesus to the lost masses! For regardless of one’s tradition they cannot be reconciled to God based on their merits but only through the gospel! Or why accept the call only to compromise it by “every wind of teaching” that comes down the pike?

[@CherylJ7501]

GOD open our eyes that we may see. Thank You Pastor Barber for being fearless while doing GOD'S will.

[@valeriejenkins1892]

We must learn again to hear what this said the said the spirit

[@ocrunhiggs]

Thank You Rev. William Barber! You Do Speak To The Very Heart Of The Problem Of This Nation. We Have Left Off To Do That Which Is GOOD! And I Hope That Some One Like You Will Bring Us Back To Our Senses Amen. Things Are Not Right!

Why Do You Capitalize Yout Sentences? I've Seen People Do This...

[@darnellmagruder283]

He is one of the few ministers worthy of our united praise, Rev.Barber speaks the truth to power and cannot be $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ cashed out by the money changers.

[@johnnyrfinley9626]

As evidenced when Jesus threw the money changers out of the temple. I have always believed that you can NEVER place a money value on human life. You will never find in any bible, or biblical teachings for that matter, where money in any form, is equated to have more value than Human life.

I feel strongly about it too, because I feel he has been the replacement for Dr. King. I mean Dr. Sizemore is no longer with us now. But weight lost a must, because even in the tailor made suit, his arms look like they will pop those seams.

When you have the majority of people whom refuse to evaluate any circumstance as to whether or not it contains any truth to it-- you wind up with degradation we accept as the new normal. Americans have been sold a bill of goods, which is contradictory to the Prosperity we were guaranteed before we were even established as a nation.

[@haroldgoingsjr2989]

He is what I call an educated man of action and not solely book learning. What if every African American was educated as well as Dr. William; it should be the case but the American People are not demanding and executing the imagination of the American Constitution. I hope he never gives us a feelgood sermon. He is giving us a spiritual education that is applicable to the current American dilemmas: the promotion of systematic racism. poverty, and war. Therefore We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to affect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly, all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.- Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies, and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world: 1. Systemic Racism 2. Poverty 3. War
