@@nylawellington1285 🙌🏾💯😊
Always come back here every so often to honor Mr. Gregory.
Pasty white guy here. I come back to this video once every few months to watch a Jedi master of civil rights own the room. Mr Gregory should be taught in schools. And his timing should be taught in music/drama class.
Interesting how you see this as him “owning” an entire stadium of people
Y’all some weird people and the word usage is very revealing .
@@ReadingComprehension8X get over yourself. He was giving a compliment. Good lord son.
@@Ronin_Noir I know
What kills me, is when everybody's dieing laughing..he still able to keep a serious face while looking around wondering what everyone is laughing about...with an occasional "Huh"????LMAO
Prince sent me here, Thanks Prince....R.I.P I needed this information
me too!
Praise God for Prince! Thank you God for Dick Gregory! BOTH Cherished sons of the most high.
Deeply saddened that this brilliant mind is no longer with us.
We loss a great one August 19, 2017, but he will never be forgotten. Thank you Mr. Gregory for your laughs and wisdom. May you R.I.P.
Prince showed this to me in Miami, Florida at the The Fontainebleau Hotel. Prince, Larry Graham and I, no lie. RIParadise, Prince and Larry. Make some awesome music for the heavens and watch our back from the other side. I'll never forget you. Until we meet again, Godspeed.
+Matt Humphrey prince just like bowie ,,,was an intelligent man ,,,they both were concerned and spoke about the state of this planet
I love the unprecedented and profound knowledge of Mr. Dick Gregory.
THUMBS UP IF PRINCE SENT YOU HERE!!! 👍🏾✌🏽🤘🏾☮
Amen!
Prince did send me !
😁😁😁
👍👍👍👍👍
+TotallyFreedomTV Yep, thumbs up! That's how I got here!!!
...Thank You so much for posting this...Dick Gregory is a National Treasure.....
+Mordechai Levinson with jews you lose!
met him once, walking up Pennsylvania Ave, in my hometown Wash/DC...towards George Washington Univ campus. I was headed to work in Georgetown...he was headed towards the school. I slowed down and extended my hand to shake his "hey, Mr Gregory...its an honor, Sir"...he warmly shook my hand and comes back with "How you doin', son?...trust me, its more of an honor meeting you"...he walked away, waving over his shoulder. Never forgot that...and it is one of the great moments of my life, truth be told. If its a big deal, meeting someone like Jay-Z...why cant it be a bigger deal, meeting someone like Mr Gregory, who helped pave a way for a Jay-Z?
PRINCE sent me here!
Sent me here as well! Very grateful!
great minds think alike
Me too!!!
same here my friend xx
+Trev Gibb Same.
"I don't need to talk about the filth, the filth speaks for itself." This sticks with me, came back to watch again. Cheers everyone.
"I'm not talking about the ones we know about.....I'm talking about the ones we don't know about......and thank god there is a god who knows all the names."
Mr. Gregory was more than a comedian. He was a man full of wisdom. If you were smart you would take time to listen to him. On August 20, 2017 the Lord called him home. Mr. Gregory you will be miss. I thank you for your laughs and your wisdom. R.I.P my brother. R.I.P.
I love this man so much just because his wisdom made me the person I am today. Deep down inside his wisdom made my wisdom more powerful...Mr. Gregory you are the man RIP
If you didn’t know about Dick Gregory you definitely missed out ; but here’s the chance to get to know him
I miss his spirit. I met him
This man is just Great!! It takes more than ticket sales to be A TRUE KING of COMEDY!!To make people laugh and teach at the same time is truly a GIFT!!
I'm 15 and i must say I love listening to this man, this is my first time listening to him and it's great.
"We leave late but we'll getcha there on time." Hahaha you damn right
There will never be another black state of the union. Thank you for posting.
I always had mad respect and love for Dick Gregory. ..
Dick Gregory is man with a lot of wisdom, he puts it together in a comedic sense,and sometimes life in its true sense can be funny.
One to the funniest and most insightful men I have had the privilege to watch. The 'Bill Clinton' stint had me laughing and crying at the same time. Gone but will never be forgotten.
When Mr. D. Gregory speaks it can cause your entire perspective to change. Truely awesome!
Rest In Power Dick Gregory!!! He had an uncanny talent of finding humor in everything while making us think at the same time. Truly extraordinary!
Brother Dick Gregory has long represented the best of the best in terms of depth and focus on whatever the subject,especially unity and dignity as a people....
You will be missed Mr. Gregory. I remember this even 9 years ago and it is unfortunate that you preached the truth then, and so little has changed... :-/
May you rest in peace. We will miss you.
PRINCE! Thank you for sharing this with me. Much Love!
me too ! #ripprince
Thank you Prince for leading so many to the TRUTH before "they" killed you
Prince Roger Nelson made me aware of this man! thank you!
I love this man,will live on
forever;Tell it Mr Dick Gregory,may be joking but it's the truth.
"fear and God do not occupy the same space"
Mr. Gregory might you be in heaven, and your wisdom is needed here. I LOVE you brother.
Prince mentioned Mr. Gregory bringing up Chem Trails during this event. Guess what year he talked about that and the human genome? 2016
Oh wow! I miss this great man..........100 SALUTE
OMG! I'm in tears!!! Tell it like it is Man!
Whos here after Corona virus
The great Mr. G, R.I.P. GOD BLESS HIS SOUL PLEASE
I’m here from the Prince interview on IG
I know right...He is an inspiration to not just grow old, but wise. We all need surround ourselves with elders and babies more. If we did so we would never lose perspective on what is really important. Life is too precious and too short (so to speak) to rob, kill, and steal from each other at the rate we do in this world.
Great comments and parallel you expressed.
Still in disbelief of this great loss .had to re watch this in your memory which will live on
I think Mr. D.Gregory is quite hilarious, and very informative upon a lot of issues he speaks upon. I hope the younger generations do revere him and listen to his messages. To look up history for themselves and seek the truth out for their own beliefs.
Thank you prince for sending me here...
Dick Gregory we miss you and too many youngsters don't know but will know you.
Who els is here because of prince 😍😍😍👅😏
🙋

Im white....and I fucking love this man. FUCK THE SUITS
🤗
its good man i love when diffrent type of races can get along and foget all that racist type of bs
Amen!
+Samuel Vasquez true
TRUTH
This was inspirational, and yet he was so funny. And I can't believe I was the one to have to come across this, cause I usually would care less about CNN. But I stayed and watched and I had to see a second time. Thanx for posting this up.
I'm HERE!!! Prince WE ALL thank you...
Using my fingers brought me here... Dick Gregory... always wise... and humorous. One should hold tight to the words of all the elders.... They are so tried and seasoned... to the all the many forces, of this world.
OUr Young people need to listen to this man! He speaks the truth!!
So good to hear GOD'S name proudly and truth outright! You Go!
I used to watch the state of the black unions for years

PRINCE THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS REFERRAL! (RIP)

I am here because of Prince as well. So good
Priceless/Timeless...!!!
"I passed the white guy from Wal-mart. I had to thank him because the prices were so low he didn't have to shoplift me a Christmas gift this year." Great stuff. Dick Gregory is the realest dude of all time. (And I'm a white dude). He's a great American irregardless of race.
I'm here too because of our angel PRINCE!
Some of you youngsters do not realize that Dick Gregory was a professional comedian before he became an activist. I am so glad you guys are enjoying this comedic genius whose career was nearly destroyed because he took a stand for civil and human rights in the 1960s!!
I´m 25, white and live in Germany and for some reason I love Dick Gregory
RIP Sir. You done good.
Another great one gone....miss u Mr Gregory
He is really dropping some wisdom on us.
Rest In Peace... respect all day
Mr Gregory how I love you
Sent me here as well! Very grateful!
Rip old wise . And brave black power.
"Fear and God DO NOT occupy the same space!"
"I don't have to talk about the filth it speaks for itself!"
Proverbs 9:10: The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.
Great Info! Thank You Prince!
He is naturally funny. i was str8 rolling but he was honest
Dick Gregory is sexy!
capoislamort100
He sure is!
I think Dick Gregory just became my new personal hero.
This man is a powerful speaker.
Brilliant man
This is funny, smart dude. He speaks the truth. God bless.
he is the most sensible civil rights activist i have heard since MLK.
man i love Dick G. He is honest and sincere with conviction.
Prince sent me here. Rip to Dick and Prince
I was just watching that Tavis interview w Prince and Prince mentioned this so I had to dip out to get caught up
"will we ever have a black pope? Yes my son, but not while I'm god" Dick Gregory
THIS MAN IS AN ICON IN OUR HISTORY > THIS IS NOT IN OUR HISTORY BOOKS!
Respect
Yes, I'm here because of Prince
I pushed message of Chemtrails being sprayed in our skies beginning in 2003. It was 2009 when Prince realized the COMPLETE TRUTH and he wrote "Dreamer". Merle Haggard wrote "What I Hate" exposing chemtrails and Government corruption. I posted online many times in the last 2 years "Prince is next" but NOBODY to date has contacted me with "Wow KC, you told us so". I was taught when I was a child "The truth will set you free". It was in the last 10 years I leaned the TRUTH will "GET YOU KILLED" in this country (and esp in Mississippi where I am)
I am KC and I approve this message

Here because of PRINCE RIP 4/21/2016.... just so happened to be on my birthday :(
revisited the prince interview and yes I too am because of him
I LOVE the hell outta Mr. Gregory!
rest in peace brother Dick Gregory
Going to the polls and voting against something is Ungodly? Amazing quote and true. We should vote FOR things.
Lord have mercy. I've got to send you a shout and a hallelujah because I was born at Grady Hospital's Hughes Spalding Pavillion back in 1960. It is good to be a native, ain't it?!?!
DG tells it like it is...take that for what its worth, History has spoken and it still speaks, a lot say yes I am listening....But do you really HEAR THE WORDS?? I will leave that just like that!!!!
I bet this is the best thing cspan has had on
Woo!
Powerful.
This is what a good comedian can do, he can make you laugh without being vulgar! Like a good rapper, not only rhyming words together but also telling a story in the process. "Gas card" was classic!
prince sent me here too.. thank you my beautiful brother #ripprince
Mr. Gregory's delivery, passion and wealth of knowledge is amazing. Check out his website. He was the one who said "Blackwater was in New Orleans" before CNN started using the mercenaries' group name (before, they were just "civilian contractors").
