My mother saw this when she was a girl in 1941, and used to tell me about it. I was so happy that she lived to see me bring a VHS of this home to relive her memories. Now as for the negative posts regarding this film, it shows how far we have come from the cohesive homes and communities of bygone years. There was a time when what was depicted here was common belief in Black Communities, especially in The South. This was who we were. Say what you will about it today, but it gave us a sense of community and shared values. Today, there is much bitterness and miserable people who don't know what to believe or follow.
Still a great movie. Been a long time. Thank you for uploading. We need more prayers and worship like this today. Jesus Christ is Lord, the Son of the living God and death and life is in the power of the tongue.
I think it so disappointing that so many of the comments are bashing this film. This is one of my favorite films in the classic era of black film. I love the singing and the religious message of this film.😊🙏🏼
Its really gut wrenching to see the hate. The bashinh of it as a white mans religion. Absolutely not true its horrible watching people turn from their heritage. Its not all slavery oppression and colonisation and self hate its more and im a PROUD Christian and ill die for what i believe
@@adonaiyah2196 not only that, but have these folks ever stopped to think that if Christianity is the "White Man's Religion," why is Ethiopia mentioned throughout The Bible?
Blessed be the Lord Jesus Christ! Watching this makes me feel even close to my lord. Halleluia! The fact that so many sinners scorn at this movie proves the point of just how badly we need salvation.
I just “discovered” a whole new genre of films! The gospel singing and praying is of a kind that has all but disappeared. It’s curious that the White Jesus pictures are Catholic, the one that took the bullet is of the Sacred Heart. I recall the exact ones in the homes of my elderly Polish relatives when I was very young. The crucifix is like the one over my bed. It belonged to my great grandmother Kryzcminski.

I'm so proud that's my mother she told me about this never saw it until Black History month on Turner Classic. My God I thank him for letting me finding my Mother at 16. We lived in Louisiana I'm so Amazed annow I live on california!❤ Hallelujah
My mother was a talented person worked with children later has a headscarf teacher an raised 4 children of her own an song in different clubs singing so 😊 happy finally finding the movie she was in winning talent contest in Dallas, Texas where we lived before we moved to Louisiana her an my 3 siblings!❤
So Blessed an proud my Mother was in this movie an finally saw it, my Grand children Also glory, Hallelujah praise the Lord!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ my family got to see this movie my mother told me about when I was 16 teen my self now able to see it in 2022!!❤ Thank u 💓 Jesus!
Now I got to see Gussie Smith, Actually Bessie L. DENNIS MY MOM SINGING fiIm SHE WAS only 16 teen from Dallas, Texas!❤ ONLY won contest 16teen in Dallas, Texas saw 7t finally in California!2022❤!
R B No! Your ancestors hearts are breaking at your unbelief. They definitely know THE TRUTH Now. If they died WITHOUT HIM-JESUS, than ALL their hope is gone. But, it's not too late for you, us, because to all that join to the living, there is Hope. Die WITHOUT ASKING GOD FOR FORGIVENESS OF your sins, AND not ACCEPTING JESUS AS LORD AND SAVIOR, you will be lost FOR ALL ETERNITY, WITH "no hope", suffering FOREVER! PERIOD!
craig moreland good luck to you and your Jesus. Keep surrending your soul. Both oppressed and the oppressors cannot pray to the same master, he can only answer one. Guess who he/she has been answering all this time...? 🙄
R B Where'd you hear, or learn that nonesense at? ALL are equal at THE CROSS! man is a respecter of persons, GOD IS NOT! GOD-JESUS, LOVES, AND DIED FOR ALL! John 3:16.
Garwin Wayne GOD said, “Let us make man in OUR image and likeness.” ALMIGHTY GOD has no colour read the Bible m, HE is GOD over all. No matter what colour, ethnicity, race, tongue etc. Talk to ALMIGHTY GOD, THE TRUE AND LIVING GOD and HE if HE does not reply to you.
Garwin Wayne GOD IN CHRIST JESUS IS A MIND SET,IT'S WRITTEN " LET THIS MIND BE IN YOU THE SAME AS IN CHRIST JESUS. WHEN YOU CALL ON HIM HE ENTERS YOUR HEART AND GUIDES YOU WITH HIS HOLY SPIRIT TO SAFE PLACES. HE WROTE " I WILL GUIDE YOU WITH MY EYE." HE IS NOT A COLOR OR CULTURE, BUT A SPIRIT, INVISIBLE TO THE EYE BUT CONTINUALLY WORKING FOR THOSE WHO CALL ON THAT ONE NAME( CHRIST, THE WORD OF GOD, MADE INTO FLESH, AND DWEKT AMONGE US......) GOOGLE IT......
That's a chance I am willing to take. There was no Jesus until we were forced to accept. Also, I am 99.99% sure none of this is true..... with that other 000.1% I have a awful lot of questions to ask said Jesus and he has a lot to answer for.
Good grief people. Stop judging a 1941 low budget movie by 21st century "politically correct" standards. It is what it is. Well, except for that goofy devil costume. That was ridiculous even by 1941 standards.
This right here im in disbelief watching these giys just tear into this . Going adter self proposed voodoo abandoning of sanity for selfish voodoo nationalism
Lets try slavery jim crow mass incarceration crack being placed in ghettos by cia white elite have made sure our whole history be dysfunctional yet you expect people to not feel broken. Sit that white racist shit down.
Who said this is a slave religion? No you got it wrong their were people who manipulated the content and created a misconstrued understanding through the manipulation of that word the devil has convinced some men that GOD is isn't who he say he is by taking the text and presented to their own liking...
This movie is relevant to the time it was made. However it showcases talent in our people and documents it as well. They would not have been given a chance in white society to do this, so good on them. This version of Jesus sat in every black persons home possibly all the way to the 70s or even the 80s. I remember a pic like this in my grandmother's house. I would hope that we have evolved as a people but life is an individual journey. The tall lady looks like Nene Leakes😁. We have beautiful ancestors.
There was never any god, no satan nor any devil. That fairy tale was used to oppress us all by brainwashing our ancestors with that garbage! All we have are ourselves! Wake up!
werewolfmanjackal, don't be fooled by the devil yes the Caucasian oppress our Ancestors with their fake Caucasian Jesus. However the Savior name is Yeshua and He is a Melanin Messiah. We are in the Last Days get on board with us the Born Again Believers. Yahweh is sending His Son Yeshua back for us to get us out of this Hellish Hole Earth,where we are hated by all Nationalities. I do not belonged to any Government Oppress Church or and Groups. I am just a Sister waiting on our beloved Melanin Messiah to take us to Paradise Heaven. Peace,love & Shalom to you.
Last Days you’ll be waiting here for a few more lifetimes. You can’t claim to shake off the shackles of re-lig-ion and still wait for a Messiah. You are made in our mother’s image and likeness, so seek the God within! Wypipole have taught us how taught us to externalise God rather than seek her within!
How can people be so negative and mean spirited whether U believe in GOD or not its nothing Wrong with singing praising to a GOD that people believe will lift them up.. It seems as though people want. More Jerry Springer and reality show entertainment America is in a sad state of affairs
thehoneyeffect JESUS CHRIST is neither Euro or African. He is LORD of all. We should not worship no graven image. THE LORD JESUS CHRIST did not bring a religion in earth. Don’t be deceived ALMIGHTY GOD is not mocked .. The movie shows how we can be easily be deceived and go down wrong road ... Read the BIBLE for yourself...
One has to have had a personal spiritual encounter with Yeshua then you don't worry about all the stories about whether Jesus is white or the books missing from the Bible and whether the white man has been using religion to oppress our people. You would focus upon the Holy Spirit and how He will lead you into all truth and reveal your purpose in this earth. #Shalom
The Blood of Jesus 👑 was a good movie. Jesus 👑 said nothing will take His children from Him or the Heavenly Father 🔱 and the Holy Ghost 🔥! ! ! ! Once you are baptized in the name of God 🔱 the Father, God the Son 👑 and God the HOLY GHOST 🔥 you are a child of God 🔱 and of the Lord 👑 Jesus Christ 👑! ! !
JESUS DIED FOR ALL, not just some, PERIOD! You Cannot Have ETERNAL LIFE, WITHOUT ACCEPTING JESUS CHRIST AS LORD AND SAVIOR! Man's opinion means "NOTHING", When it Comes to Where y.o.u. Will Spend ETERNITY!
Always a true blessing to see my grandmother sing. she was only 16 in this movie.
That’s awesome. What time code is she at? What is her name?
