A I really do uh get a kick out of every year round Dr King’s birthday uh the federal holiday and we get treated with all the quotes and all the latory comments about how amazing Dr King was and what he stood for and what he did for America and then the same folk then
Turn around and literally vote against speak against the very things that he actually fought for and so uh uh Sunday night I had some followers of mine who sent me uh a sermon uh by uh Houston’s uh Ed Young Senior uh who leads Second Baptist Church and Ed young is one of
The most prominent white conservative preachers in the country uh Second Baptist has several locations uh in Houston uh his son has a massive Church in North Texas and uh and he’s one of the biggest voices uh among uh the uh conservative uh Christian Movement and uh he lately he has been highly critical
Of of progressive policies and the left and criticizing uh saying lying about Houston saying Houston has the highest crime rate out of uh in the country that was a lie uh telling folks we should be we should be opposing cash bail I mean all kind of BS from the pulpit uh
Constantly lying he’s been checked by Houston mayor Sylvester Turner on civil occasions as well uh but but but he gave a sermon called created equal and I I I listened to it and I had to get a laugh out of it as I as I watched him go
Through it uh and and with the praise of Dr King and so I I just wanted to just begin to break this thing down so so why don’t you go ahead and and play it and I’mma I’mma start it and stop it and walk y’all through uh some of the
Nonsense that we heard from him that we often hear from other white conservative preachers who make the same mistake in terms of trying to look all good with racial reconciliation and speaking against racism but it’s amazing how they ignore a lot of other stuff that happens but go let’s start it right now
Yesterday I went back and I looked at 400 years of life in America for the African-American who was brought over here as slaves I you know I sort of knew all that but I didn’t have any concept of the length of the bigotry the Prejudice get ready stop it the inhumane way
Americans treated fellow human beings made in the image of God because if you know your history a slaves first came over here in in 1619 and I do not buy the 1619 phony history that’s not what I’m saying but they came stop right there stop right
There stop right there first of all Ed young y’all was 86 years old he was born in Mississippi he pastured in South Carolina how in the hell are you unaware of the treatment of African-Americans in the United States you were born and raised in Mississippi uh really now now y’all notice right there
How he mentioned the first slaves coming in 1619 and then I I don’t mean that phony 1619 history project notice how he slid that in okay see this is what they do see their anger is at Nicole Hannah Jones and all the other folks who participated in that
Because what folk like young don’t like is the rest of the story they don’t want you to hear and so maybe Ed the reason you didn’t fully understand the depths and the treatment of Africa how Afric americ were being treated because the 1619 project didn’t exist maybe because you were presenting a
White whiteash version of American History so as opposed to uh trying to throw shade at it maybe you should spend some time reading that press play with the settlement of jamest town the Massachusetts Bay Company and they came primarily for for profit and for gold a little
Later we know about Plymouth Rock when pilgrims came because they loveed Jesus and they wanted to worship freely and independently in a new land so a totally different ball game but in jamest town the secular invasion of our country they brought with them slaves first slavery in our
History and then we know from that moment listen roughly 250 years just hold on to that number 250 years we treated fellow human beings made in the image of God as if they were animals and some sometime worse than we treat our own animals oh I got to put a pause there ID
Because yes slavery lasted about 243 years you throw in the Civil War then you got the Reconstruction period uh but you might want to add on another hundred years Ed uh Great Compromise of 1866 the election of 1876 lead to the Great Compromise of 1877 which leads to
92 years of Jim Crow black folks in Jim Crow were treated like animals were treated as less than human beings lynchings that took place in your home state of Mississippi in South Carolina where you were a pastor uh in Alabama in Tennessee in Arkansas and Texas and on
And on and on so I’m trying to understand why you’re only limiting this treatment of African-Americans to that period of slavery when that treatment existed Beyond slavery when it was over or as Douglas Blackman called it slavery uh without uh first of all slav without slavery without shackles slavery
Contined just weren’t in shackles press play that’s the truth the Constitution was written by wealthy men intelligent men supposedly God-fearing men but eight out of the first constitution was not written by wealthy men it was written by wealthy white men that distinction is kind of important to the conversation press play
First 12 presidents of the United States were slave owners they were slave owners now you can be build all kind of little Anonymous how people treat their slaves like family and all that but is it is brutality and is evil any way you look at it and now we see Dr King King
Stop I I I’m sorry I wa we went from slavery to Dr King damn near 100 years Dr King does not come onto the national consciousness until the Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955 he literally went from the end of Slavery to Dr King how you skip 90
Years H H how do you skip Frederick Douglas how do you skip Martin Delaney H H how do you skip Booker Washington WB Duo A Philip Randolph ad be Welles Barnett how do you feel how do you skip 90 years of black struggle for freedom
And you just go oh then we got Dr King press play and through prayer he decided to bring about a Revolution different from any other revolutions except maybe when Mahatma Gandhi through pacifism liberated India from the British Empire through nonviolence Dr King took that path it was dangerous it was
Deadly and he began through those years to do things to say things always in a Biblical Christian context don’t miss that he begin to say things and do things he C can we name some of them I mean the way it sounds like that the king just prayed and gave
Sermons no that was policy there were things behind that he was arrested there were protests it wasn’t just him it was third Good Marshall and the NAACP legal defense fund it was Dr Dorothy Height uh it was James Farmer uh it was core it was Snick
It was a plethora of individuals uh it was I mean we could go it was Ella Baker and others it was Roy Wilkins it was Whitney Young I mean we can go on and on with the folks who were involved in this come on Doc press play don’t miss that don’t miss
That I submit to you that along with Billy Graham and maybe internationally once in Churchill Dr Martin Luther King was the most influential individual in the 20th century by but Ed tell your white congregation why go deeper and come on if you going to walk through scripture walk through
The text and the life of Dr King sitting right here Ed seven volumes of Dr King’s writings the papers of Martin Luther King Jr from Stanford University Clayborne Carson and others seven volumes and not even all of his papers the books he WR doc you got to be you
Got to go a little bit deeper than that player go ahead press play Four he saved America he he preached the gospel he was indeed a great man Dr King did not save America because he preached the gospel Dr King and others redefine America because they chose to stand up and fight
For freedom and equality and fight against white supremacy fight for the poor fight for the folks who have been ignored he didn’t just preach the gospel the Bible and says faith without works is dead you can’t stand before your congregation and give a sermon about that King’s faith and ignore his
Works and not mention that but there’s a reason why you don’t want to mention his works because his works then conqu contradicts what you believe today press play Martin Luther King speaking at Southern Methodist University two years before his assassination 1966 he said a doctrine of black
Supremacy is just as dangerous as a doctrine of white supremacy God is not interested in Freedom of black men or brown men or yellow men God is interested in the freedom of the whole human race the creation of a society where every man will respect the dignity and work of
Personality Dr King couple years before isation at SMU prise oh my God I I I’m I’m fascinated by a transitioning from Dr King’s work to a a piece of his speech at Southern Methodist in 1966 so I decided to look up that particular speech go to my iPad this
Ladies and gentlemen is a transcript of that particular speech um Let Me Ed talked about the white supremacy the black Supremacy part let me scroll down let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep
Going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going let me keep going oh then I have arrived right there at the top of the
Screen the one paragraph that Ed young was speaking about ladies and gentlemen the speech that Dr King gave is 7,485 words let me say that again just in case you missed what I just said the speech that Dr King gave at Southern Methodist University is 7,4 85 words Ed young skipped
6,345 words before he decide to cherryi the segment of Dr King’s Speech where he’s talking about black Supremacy now if anybody understands and actually has read the history of Dr King what they will know and understand is Dr King whenever you saw him talking about black Supremacy he was specifically talking
About the Nation of Islam he was talking about if you here’s his book where we go from here chaos or community in this particular book where he talked about that there are four institutions that are primed to liberate Black America he lists the Negro Church the Negro press negro fraternities and sororities negro
Professional and business organizations and then he talks about the Nation of Islam and he says while he Praises them for the work that they have done to clean up black men and to be moral and upstanding he disagrees with them about black Supremacy that’s what he was talking
About in the same book he talked about black power being an empty statement with nothing behind it that’s what king talked about you can hear numerous speeches with him doing so uh but see but there’s a reason why Ed mentioned while he just cherry-picks that part of King’s speech at SMU for
This so I submit to you that we’re proud to be American I’m proud to be American but we can’t overlook this disastrous history at the same time all important the color of your face says all of those in the woke agenda what does that mean that mean he said the woke agenda
Now you understand why he pulls out that segment on black Supremacy because it is the setup for the attack on the woke agenda he then tries to define the woke agenda the Press Play means according to those in the left left part of our United States that if you were born
Black or some other color that defines who you are and you are listen to me carefully automatically a racist by being white that is a fundamental and absolute lie it is an absolute lie that is not what being woke means that is how white conservatives have redefined wokeness to
They have used it as the attack against diversity Equity inclusion the attack against multiculturalism the attack against what we’re trying to achieve that’s how they have redefined it in their own way that is not the definition press play it doesn’t matter what you’ve done what you believe where you’ve been
You are a racist by virtue of your birth Earth and more than that and this is hard to believe there’s not a thing in the world you can ever do to repent and to convince anybody anywhere because you’re white that you’re not a racist we all know that’s a flat out lie
We’ve had Jane Elliott on this show we’ve had Tim Wise on this show we’ve had others on this show we know that there are white brothers and sisters who were involved in the fight for equality that is simply not true we know for fact James Reed was beaten to death a pastor
From Boston was beaten there uh in Selma uh standing up for voting rights we know white woman Vio from Michigan had her head blown off uh coming back from Montgomery back to S and we know uh again the other white PE folks who were killed during the Civil Rights Movement
And we know folk today who are involved in protest who on the front lines who are not black sorry Ed you simply are wrong and that’s a flat out lie but when you have your own definition of wokeness now we understand why you were utterly confused hit Play There’s No Redemption
You could be anti-racist but you’ll never reach the goal until you’re still categorized like that a leader of black lives matter said a matter public record anyone who waves an American flag by definition whomever you are you’re a racist now it’s amazing how you could go
Go to find a Dr King speech and go down 6,000 plus words and pluck out a paragraph but you can’t name who the so-called black lives matter leader is do you have a name Ed are they actually a black lives black lives matter leader who are they a local person or the
National leader who really is the person you’re quoting in so we can have the context oh you just say a black lives matter leader it’s a matter of public record nice try we ain’t falling for for the banana and the tail pipe Press Play Everything Is tragically defined by racism how different that
Is from Dr Martin Luther King’s understanding of the racial challenges we had in America then and we progressed a great deal but we still have some ways to go but how far that we have come you see he would tell us as we know the color of your face doesn’t determine
Your character and who you are and really you’ll discover doesn’t say much about you and me did you know that all of our physical assets ears nose mouth body make up 0.012 of who we are is that any big deal about you or about me that color is all important of your
Skin did did did he just so he do Dr King didn’t understand color Dr King didn’t have an appreciation of Blackness really it that I recall Dr King talking about black is beautiful press play King go to Korea I come here Tad with you believe in yourself and believe that you’re
Somebody as I said to the group last night nobody else can do this for us no document can do this for us no Lin Corian Emancipation Proclamation can do this for us no konian a johnsonian Civil Rights bill can do this for us if the
Negro is to be free he must move down into the inner resources of his own soul and sign with a pin an ink of self assertive manhood his own emancipation proc don’t let anybody take your manhood be proud of our heritage as somebody said earlier tonight we don’t have anything to be ashamed
Of somebody told a lie one day they couched it in language they made everything black ugly and evil look in your dictionary and see the synonyms of the word black it’s always something degrading and low and Sinister look at the word white it’s always something [Applause]
Pure but I want to get the language right tonight I want to get the language so right that everybody he will cry out yes I’m black I’m proud of it I’m black and beautiful what MLK says right there absolutely contradicts Ed young but I need you to understand what
Young is doing young wants to present this sanitized this civil rights mask C view of King he wants to strip Dr King of his radicalness he wants to take it away and he wants to be somehow given credit for addressing the issue of race when no what you’re doing is you are actually
Ignoring what King’s life was actually all about the issues he actually confronted and dealt with if y’all watch the rest of this sermon what you hear you will hear Ed Young continuing and going on uh talking about uh uh different aspects talking about how God created One race
Absolutely oh he’ll mention how race is a construct and and he’ll talk about that uh in a certain way there a certain point in his sermon where he talks about uh how the white supremacists are almost out of business mention the KKK really FBI director Christopher Ray testified before Congress play
It this is the FBI director talking in the last couple of years listen the hve threat the Homegrown violent extremist threat is the new normal and it’s created a new set of challenges a much greater number of potential threats each with far fewer dots to connect and much less time to
Prevent or disrupt an attack these folks are largely radicalized online by the global jihadist movement we’re also keeping our eye on domestic terrorism from people who’ve come up with their own customized belief systems and hope to advance them through violence we have uh through the uh third
Quarter of this fiscal year uh had about give or take a 100 arrests in the international terrorism side which includes the Homegrown violent extremism this year this year but we’ve also had just about the same number again don’t quote me to the exact digit uh on the
Domestic terrorism side and I will say that a uh majority of the um domestic terrorism uh cases that we’ve investigated uh are motivated by some version of what you might call white supremacist violence But it includes other things as well a hug now now Ed young this idea that somehow we’ve
Eliminated that simply flies out the window because it’s simply not true but when you’re but when you’re living in your own safe protected cocoon and when you are standing with Maga folk you actually believe that other nonsense when in fact that’s simply not true play the this part of his sermon
It’s not biblical let me assure you of that because without Grace we’re totally out of business so with that being said I’m going to do something with great reticence but I think it needs to be restated one of the greatest orations Lincoln’s gettysburger dress two or three others would be Martin
Luther King’s I had a dream speech there in the Washington mall maybe a million people presence millions of people heard it around the world and Martin Luther King dreamed of a certain kind of America I think we were getting there with not fast enough 350 years of bigotry by leadership
Across the Bo is too much folks we can’t deny that we can’t run from that but we were getting there and we’re getting there because a lot of churches Christians that’s how slavery got eliminated in in England it was will force in here it was Uncle Tom’s
Cabin in here it was Henry Ward beer and others who stood against the evil and deadliness of racism oh yes it was through the church when people awakened to see that in the Bible We Are One in Jesus Christ period sea when they began to preach that and see that that’s where
Racism was eliminated and still being healed but thank God there’s only one kind of slave we want to be and that’s a slave to the Lord Jesus Christ where everybody I got freeze right there Ed do you deny the reality of how the white church continued racism after slavery how the Southern Baptist
Convention what they did how in y’all in his own sermon he actually contradicts it by saying when he passed a church in South Carolina they had a sign where everybody wasn’t welcome and he said no that’s not how I’m going to be leading this church DOC come on you can’t sit
Here and talk about how the church was the was the one that led the end of slavery no it was white men like John Brown who who stood up against other white pastors who wanted to continue come on Doc we can’t do that and y’all so you hear what he does
So what he does is he he he continues in here and then uh he goes on and he closes his sermon by reciting Kings I have a dream the porch that I have a dream portion of King speech and see this is the Crux of what
I’m talking about see this is what I’m talking about the game that these white conservative preachers play in terms of how they love uh to play around see as since you want scripture Proverbs 12 uh uh 17 said a truthful witness gives honest testimony but a false witness
Tells lies then it says Reckless words Pierce like a sword but the tongue of the wise brings healing truthful lips endure forever but a lying tongue lasts only a moment there is a deceit in the heart of those who plot evil but joy for those who promote
Peace Ed you can’t stand in front of the people and then recite that I have a dream portion of that King’s Speech but you ignore completely everything he said before that you can’t sit here and talk about oh how Dr King wanted the races to get
Along and his children and want y’all he quote and he starts crying and and his congregation begins to stand up and they begin to clap and cheer and all that begins to happen but how dare you as a Christian Pastor give a 26 minute sermon extoling Dr King not one time do you
Talk about what he stood against not one time do you recite the same speech where he talked about police brutality he talked about voter suppression he talked about the economic imbalance in this country how can you sit here and even quote that particular speech uh that he gave at Southern Methodist University
And totally look look over the 6,000 other words he actually gave in the speech y’all go to my iPad if you actually look at the speech not King in the speech he talks about the poor he talks about voter suppression still alive today he talks about the economic
Imbalance when it comes to wages and jobs he talks about all of those things yet I don’t hear Ed young talking about any of these issues I don’t hear him talking about what king was referencing I don’t hear him dealing with in all of these volumes the work King was talking
About y’all go to YouTube Ed young has a speech called socialism versus capitalism where he has some strong words against socialism the same man who he praised in this sermon gets what he called himself a socialist this book right here is called the guaranteed income It Is by Robert
Theobold this is the book Reverend Al Samson who was one of two pastors personally ordained by Dr King this was the economic theory that the king believed in when it came to a guaranteed income King said he was a socialist but the same Ed young has harsh words for socialist yet
He stands before the congregation strips king of all of that to praise him to make it sound like oh we all together and if we could just love one another and just stand together no Ed what it requires is for you to put some skin in
The game what it requires for you and is to not be uh not to drive your conservative uh theories when you at your church hosted Roy Moore Jr when he was running against Doug Jones in the Alabama Senate when you stood there and criticized the cash bail situation
Blaming that for crime in the country when you don’t want to confront mass incarceration Where Are You Ed young with the Poor People’s campaign and Reverend Dr William J Barbera fighting for the 140 million poor and lowincome folks in the country you can’t stand before the people and praise Dr King and
Never mention the poor you can’t stand there talk about about how great and wonderful he was when literally the things that that man was fighting for then still exist today you can’t sit here and strip this man of who he was and how he spoke against the reality of how white folks
Stop but you know maybe I just ought to just share just a couple of things and I’m almost done and I’m going to let the panelist comment then I’m going to go to my next guest but I I just want y’all to understand that um yeah uh this is what king
Wrote white Americans left the left the Negro on the ground and in De devastating numbers walked off with the aggressor it appeared that the white segregationist and the ordinary white citizen had more in common with one another than either had with the Negro same
M uh the same M this is what he said overwhelmingly America is still struggling with ir irresolution and contradiction it has been sincere and even ENT in welcoming some change but too quickly apathy and disinterest rise to the surface when the next logical steps are to be taken laws
Are passed in a crisis mood after a Birmingham or a Selma but no substantial fervor survives the formal signing of legislation the recording of the law in itself is treated as the reality of the reform same M Ed Young M writes the real cost lies ahead the stiffening of white resistance is a
Recognition of that fact the discount education given Negroes will in the future have to be purchased at full price if quality education is to be realized jobs are harder and costlier to create than voting roles the eradication of slums housing Millions is complex far beyond integrating buses and lunch counters same m same
Ml he then says in here Negroes have proceeded from a premise that equality means what it says and they have taken white Americans at their word when they talked of it as an objective but most whites in America in 1967 including many persons of Goodwill proceed from a premise that equality is
A loose expression for Improvement White America is not even psychologically organized to close the gap essentially it seeks only to make it less painful and less obvious but in most respects to retain it most of the abrasions between Negroes and white liberals arise from this fact same M Edon same
One then he says whites it must frankly be said are not putting in a similar mass effort to re-educate themselves out of their racial ignorance it is an aspect of their sense of superiority at the white people of America believe they have little to learn y’all that’s just
In the first 10 pages of the book I take exception to the sermon because what Ed young is doing is what white Christians and white Pol white Republicans often do that is they want to present a sanitized clean sacarin G-rated version of Dr King minus all of the stuff that he was was
Fighting for in his 39 years you can’t stand before your congregation a young and praise Dr King and how wonderful he was and how he preached the gospel if you never even mention the word poor you can’t stand there in your fine sanctuary and talk about how amazing he
Was and and how he changed America if you’re unwilling to commit yourself to the very things that he actually stood for for cuz frankly all you’re doing if you don’t is providing us with empty rhetoric that is meaningless if Pastor Ed Young Senior wants to impress me I dare you to invite
Reverend Dr William J Barber to your church I dare you to invite the Poor People’s campaign and repairs of the breach I Dare You Ed young to hold a one or two day conference on your campus with regards to the real life of Dr King
I I I dare you to bring Reverend Bernice King to your church and the King Center and have a real dialogue I Dare You Ed young to invite Reverend William Lawson and Reverend Dr uh Ralph West and other pastors in Houston other black Pastors in Houston to come and say how you Ed
Young are willing to stand with them on the very issues that Dr King talked about don’t sit here and cherry pick out of a soul speech he gave at SMU if you’re unwilling to address the other stuff he talked about in the very speech please Ed young show me where you called
Out Senator Tommy tupperville for his racist comments please show me where you have chastised Donald Trump other Republicans for their racist and xenophobic comments please show me where you are willing in at at the age of 86 to stand in the same spot and say I’m
Willing to lift up the same stuff Dr King believed in if not all you did was give yourself a 26 minute pat on the back shed some tears at the end and got you an empty Standing Ovation from your audience and they left that church just as uninformed as they were when you
Started as simple as that um Mo’Nique you said I’m going to let you start you sent me a text saying you heard the speech and uh you had views on it you agreed with most of it uh now that you heard me lay this out you can go ahead and
Comment yeah um I don’t I don’t know that there’s ever been a single topic about which we’ve disagreed more um I I believe as you said on my show a couple of days ago that it’s the responsibility of um white people in leadership to speak and Galvanize in in their
Own uh communities and and and thereby congregations and I see someone like a Pastor Ed young with roughly 85,000 um in in his ministry uh who chose didn’t have to ain’t no special day not MLK day or nothing like that chose the topic of racism and the history of slavery and
Racism in this country to spend the entirety of his sermon um and and talked about slavery and the hundreds of years post slavery and the the Hideous actions of the founders of this country and of those who led our country for hundreds of years thereafter he mentioned a part that that was not
Included in in what you covered um that he is not opposed to even legislation that promotes equality uh he discussed um the areas in which he thought personally he had been able to assist such as going in and leading a church that had been led by racism white supremacist and needing to reach
Agreement with leadership and the leadership voting and a little more than half of them agreeing so that he could continue there but the governor who was the Deacon being one who did not agree um all of these stories are documented but um to me the thousands of people in
That church that day uh likely heard more about the plight of black people in this country from a leader they respect than they had heard in days and days and years and years he made no mention about may be looking they he made no mention about at he didn’t talk about why are
You interrupting no I’m interrupting because he made no mention of plight he didn’t talk about economics he talk about education he didn’t do present day no he didn’t he simply was a fly over he spoke at 30,000 ft he literally made no specific mention about the condition of
African-Americans then or now other than we were treated as animals he simply did not right and except saying that we’ve come a long way but we have further to go can you say what we might want to be doing no no no I’m not I’m not saying
That he gave an anthology I’m not saying um that he gave an accurate history of of slavery in America and the vestages of it I’m not saying I’m not even focus on slavery I’m not even focused on slavery he would even mention a single substantive issue that the king thought
All he said was he preached the gospel and changed the world as you say as you as you say it’s your show um no as I say it’s called context no but but you keep I know but you had 20 minutes I’m only trying to take four well actually I got you but
But first of all I but you’ve had three and a half and so no but no but you had three and a half so I’mma go to Robert then I’m go to Joe but you did Robert go uh well you know I appreciate the the effort um there’s a a meme going around
At least you tried I think that for many of these white people as uh Monique said this may be their first introduction to even the concept particularly when you can see nothing but white ring White Ring Whitewing media um 24/7 uh and so maybe within 10% of the congregation
Will inspire them to go home and do a Google search and find out the full contest and find out the deeper meaning uh to dive deeper into it to think of themselves differently uh I think that any convers ation on has to be uh the beginning but we have to keep it going
After uh thereafter what we’ve seen in the last 50 years or so is I call the disn ification of Dr King where they’ve taken the Dr King that actually existed and turned him into this cartoon character that they can kind of Trot out uh whenever they they need to they
Usually take the I Have a Dream speech for example that was 1667 words and they did say content of character color the skin and that’s all they know of the speech so it’s important for us the people who do understand who do know to call these things out to make people
Understand that the uh that these individuals were more than just the a tagline or a hashtag or a meme uh that there was deeper uh uh work that was being done and that the entire Civil Rights Movement wasn’t just Dr King as Chris Rock said that that’s all we
Learned as Martin Luther King that there were hundreds of thousands of people who fought and thousands who died and were imprisoned and lost everything for the journey that we are on and those are going to be turned back in the upcoming years by the Supreme Court so it’s an
Important conversation to begin now that it has begun maybe this is where we step in and partner in and walk in and say well let me give you some more context let’s bring some black ministers Reverend Barber or Reverend Sharpton or uh Reverend Jackson his younger days to
Give the full Contex on what happened and start building those bridges between the two uh so I will give him an a for effort uh but I do think as you said Roland there’s a lot more context that needs to be put in there a lot more
Education that needs to be had but we need to at least begin the conversation since many of these people have are are so recant to the the idea being even presented to their storming school boards to talk critical race Theory well Joe what you’re not going to do is try
To throw shade at the 1619 project black lives matter and woke agenda uh we don’t know what the hell you talking about but then you want to cover it up by saying I love Dr King Joe go ahead you know I think one of the scriptures that is mentioned in that
Same speech uh by Dr King uh is Amos 5 and4 and a lot of people know the scripture us church folk know the Scripture it say says but let Justice roll down like a river and righteousness as an Ever flowing stream but there was a butt so what had happened before was
The what had happened was people had been making the sacrifices that they normally did oh let’s kill an animal oh let’s do the things that we normally do God and it will pacify you but what God was saying was what you used to do and what you’re doing now isn’t enough so
Let Justice roll down like a river you know if there was this uh uh this hypocrisy and this uh selective memory and this self-righteousness frankly despite the effort um some may call it effort uh this is the reasons non-christians won’t become Christians got it and I’m a Christian saying it and
So really Martin was called a militant ask him let’s ask Pastor how he felt about Martin when he died he’s old enough to be around was he actually reciting the words from I have dream back in 1963 I bet you he wasn’t and does he have a picture of Jesus that is
Historically accurate visually today probably not it might be that some people in his congregation if they saw Jesus as Jesus was to be seen in the natural they wouldn’t even be followers and so therefore we are at a place where we have to be truthful and even the
Bible says 2 Thessalonians 10 people have not aov the truth for that reason they’ll be sent strong delusion to believe the lie at the end of the day regardless of his effort regardless of his intention and in fact I don’t have a heaven or hell to put him in and he
Might get the same Grace that I’mma need I know he needs it but at the end of the day he was wrong and he was wrong from the pulpit and he’s aligned with Donald Trump who calls 2 Corinthians 2 Corinthians he’s aligned right with Fascism and he’s he he’s aligned with
With a lack of truth going to truth will make people uncomfortable everybody celebrates Martin right as if he lived a long life and they didn’t kill him but they did well and again all I’m simply saying is uh if you’re going to cherry-pick the black Supremacy part
Don’t ignore the other 6,000 plus words of what he laid out but it’s amazing how that’s the only part of the speech he Referenced A
