What is the Black church? What role has it played in the culture and liberation of Black Americans throughout US history?
Rev. Dr. Marshall Hatch takes viewers on a journey through the history and impact of the Black church in America, from the religion of white slaveholders passed to enslaved peoples to the role of the church today in the era of Black Lives Matter. He teaches on the Civil War, Reconstruction, the development of Black denominations due to segregation, prominent Black church leaders and theologians, the Civil Rights era, and the new time of racial reckoning in America today.
The Black church has guided culture, provided hope in hard times, and been the motivating and organizing force behind pushes for the rights of Black Americans. While church attendance is decreasing, Hatch contends that the Black church still has an important role to play in American life.
Presented with Northern Seminary. (seminary.edu)
Wow. Your presentation is so powerful and passionate. I have been studying about Charles Wesley in particular. It is so awesome to see how God interrupted accepted practice and theory with hope of salvation and freedom from sin. New Christian converts now had trouble with the belief that it was okay to enslave others when Jesus had freed them. Of course, John Adams and Benjamin Franklin had wrestled with these contradictions as well. Americans were fighting for freedom, yet many denied the freedom of African slaves. Thank you for this series. I look forward to the other videos.

Thank you for this video. This is the history I was looking for.
Great video Pastor Hatch. 😊
Thank you very much for sharing ❤
At three minutes and 10 seconds into the video, my question is if what he is explaining is factual then why is it that there is not a single country in Africa that can recount the other half of this story there is not a single country in Africa that says a group of them were taken leavesand shipped across a vast ocean not one single group living within one single country on the entire continent of Africa confirms this story
In Africa we know our people were taken by force and enslaved. Problem is that history was lost but we know. Colonizers tried to blame African leaders for that but fact is they were forcefully taken. Later some greedy leaders sold people in exchange of benefits. Sad but Africans in the diaspora are welcome home
You just refuse to realise that y'all ruined us. Spread like a germ. We are partially to blame. Not partially... mostly to blame. We allowed it to happen.
Imagine a world had we not fallen for promises of power. A world where Europeans worked WITH Black Africans in the same manner in which the Europeans worked with themselves.
Black Africans would be amongst the wealthiest people (through Africas natural resources) and Africa probably the most desirable destinations in the world(it's beautiful, warm, lots of water and wildlife).
We are only now recovering. For instance, Nigeria got it's "freedom" in 1960!!!
There are too many documents and ship records across America that demonstrate the same thing to be able to say that it didn't happen. If in Africa they are not good historians that's a whole other issue. But we who have written history cannot deny the multitude of written documents from different cultures that are available from that time.
@@ministerforprofitministerf1671 they know and have said so but they don't appear in media. In villages and homes Africans know and talk about their people who were shipped away. Media makes it seem like the truth but the truth is in the grassroots. My self I know in the coastal areas of Kenya people were shipped away by Arabs and Portuguese but no one puts in the media. If you go to the slave castles you will know that
@@Rosefirelight in Africa we have oral history not written. Our ancestors passed information by word of mouth until recently
You mean to tell me that that history is the best that God has to offer what I mean by that is you mean to tell me that the omnipotent and omniscient God would use people whose IQ moral IQ isn’t high enough to realize treat people like this, but he would use the same people who didn’t have a moral IQ high enough to realize shit. You don’t treat people like this, and he would use them to evangelize and save, Black people you mean to tell me that’s the best God has to offer somebody got the story wrong all wrong because it just don’t make no damn sense
This is all lies wow
How?
As a white American, I find the black church history very inspiring. The community, the history, and the progress they’ve made through peace is astounding. I also find it utterly shocking that the African people sold their own people to slavery. I guess it’s true that money is the root of all evil.
Its false! We are not African! There were never any slave ships found or pilgrim ships or even Columbus ships ever found. They made one fake TV show still no ships. We are the descendants of Adam and Eve. God clearly stated in the book of Genesis that he made man from the Earth. Earth is BROWN! So God's people are brown like the Earth. Africans are Asiatics! Nelson Mandela was clearly a black Asian human. The Africans in the bible were the land of Ham that stands for Hamite connected to Lord Rama of India. Africa was not the original name for this land. It was originally connected to Asia, Eurasia, Israel, etc. The whole landmass was Asia they were all once black people. They came from evolution and evolved from the serpent in the garden that was cursed and kicked out of the garden. The serpent evolved into a mammal and that mammal was the Rhesus species. Lord Hanuman from which Human primates take their names. The animal kingdom has mutations such as albinism so they were producing offsprings with different forms of albinism. That is how different types of Asiatics came into existence. The Siberians, Chinese, Mexican, Hundurians, Japanese, Indians, Russians, Eurasians, etc. God is perfect he wouldn't make a man with genetic mutations like people who descend from Africans have. I don't have dwarfs in my family that because that is a genetic mutation from evolution. We don't have albinism, vitiligo, etc all these things are from the animal kingdom. Christianity started in Northern Hemisphere. After the great flood when all the humans were killed apes invaded South America from Africa they got here by swimming. That's why there's no ships. That's why you see pyramids and Asians Olmec heads in South America. They went into Texas. They crucified Christ there. It wasn't that long ago like they are claiming. I estimate like 700 years ago. Asiatic babies still grow tails and are born like mermaids because a fish evolved into a serpent. They can be saved like man with true repentance but that is how they came into existence. America is Israel! Revelation 13:18: "Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for the number is that of a man; and his number is 666". The beast man is people from evolution they can be saved but they need to repent and be filled the Holy Spirit and obey the word of God. Stop telling this false history. That's why the world is having bad weather its Gods judgement and wrath 🌪🔥.
You all evolved we are not African you are.
