GOOD MORNING AMERICA'S HOMEPAGE:
www.goodmornin...
I never listened to Al Sharpton give a sermon before. I've only heard his speeches during his protests and activism. However, wow! He gave an amazing eulogy and sermon! This was a treat! What a great message!
Laverne Johnson when the people get sick of your oppression, all of your greatest fears will come true
I totally agree.
Getting your knee of our neck is not preaching hate, it is speaking truth to power and saying “Get your knee off our neck”! The TRUTH is hard-
@Laverne Johnson sure it is. Doesn't justify racism though.
Laverne Johnson : “A riot is the language of the unheard.” .... Martin Luther King. If you haven’t lived it, up front and personally, get out your history books, and study it, so, hopefully, you may integrate it and, at least, live it vicariously.

Sharpton has never had a relationship with truth.
Folks scared of Truth dats Satan hiding in the trenches
I’m a white Canadian and this brought tears running down my cheek. Rest In Peace George. Great Eulogy
I have watched this speech almost 20 times with tears each time. "Take your knee off our neck". God bless you Rev. Al. we appreciate you. We love you Jesse Jackson and Martin Luther King 111.
As a Canadian guy, this may be the most common sense speech I have ever heard in my life. This man is a treasure
If you like listening to a racist Christian.
@@firecarrier1 Lol, I don't think you know racism, and you wouldn't know it if it hit you in your face. "Racist Christians"? That's an oxymoron dummy
No matter what people say (Good, Bad nor Ugly)... Rev Al Sharpton know how to peach the word of God. Strong preaching Rev!!
A Eulogy to be remembered. Thank you reverend Sharpton. Rest in Peace George with God's Protection.
These words are so powerful should be shared around the world.

I think they have been! This is one of the greatest speeches in American history. It's just so incredibly sad that it needed to be made, that it came in the form of Eulogy! And still today Trump does nothing but continue to try to divide our nation violently. The man is so racist that he would rather rip America apart and lose his election (which is all he cares about in his sociopathic love of power) than pretend for five minutes to support Black Lives Matter & justice. That's how racist he is.
I think this was the first time I've ever listened to Rev Al preach - I know him more as a commentator - but this eulogy was absolutely historic - fantastic.
It was cool until he brought god in it. That Bible is a big lie. He let George get killed and ain’t do nothing. I guess he on break🤷🏾♂️
@David Rodgers How long do you think the police will survive in general population?
Yes, i remember watching it live on CNN (from Sweden) and I was riveted too. A great speech, delivered with dignity, heartfelt earnestness and humour ("you don't entrust something to me if you want to keep it a secret, because I am known not to be a guy who keeps silent...I'm the Demolition Man" - quoted from memory). The reference to Donald Trump holding a Bible upside down at 1:48 is too cool - but above all, a eulogy of great emotional power, delivered with style.
Inspiring words. Brought me to tears.
So inspirational. We need change and justice for him.
Me too specifically when Al Sharpton said his Mama was dead and he was calling out for her..."GOD Is Alive and Vengeance is he's"
Rev. Al killed it! What a moving eulogy. Watched from Ghana, West Africa. We matched as well!
This echoes the oppression ireland and the Irish people suffered from the British empire for hundreds of years. It took a revolution to change things. We the Irish people stand in solidarity with African americans for their rights as human beings to be treated with the dignity they deserve. I hope change is on the way... peace and respect from 🇮🇪
tekno trim ✊🏽
Amazing speech. So many great people in the US, you can do better, time for change America, stand up! Hello from Germany.
Fozzie Bear thanks many of us are trying
And we will continue to!

Fozzie Bear

The 🌎 is rooting for you. Good job, 🇺🇸 people. Keep standing up for yourselves and each other.
❤️💙💚🖤💜🧡💙💛❤️💙💜🖤❤️
New Zealand Marched as well....25,000 thousands turned up that day
Thank you! Solidarity is needed around the world! Take your knee off our neck! Doesn’t matter if you’re a “ black fella” , African, original person of color all over the world , take your knee off our necks!
THANK YOU FOR STANDING WITH US!!!
Thank you for your support! The struggle is real and we are all in this together. No Justice....No Peace!!!
God bless New Zealand. We saw. We know 👍👍👍🤨
Good on my fellow Kiwis back in my beautiful homeland!!! ❤
George Flyod, May your soul rest in peace.
You will change so much things for black people all around the world. Not only in America.
Enough is enough. If you stand for justice, then let's fight for it
It is the time🙌🏿
This speech is just so powerful.
Ening E that’s so true 🙏
I live in SC and wish RV can come here they call Charleston SC the Holy city shame why ancestor was hung on trees here and sold here don’t get me wrong we have a lot on churches here but that doesn’t make us the Holy City ☹️😔
Rev. Al you preached the word. You showed up and showed out! God be praised!
Amazing speech. I loved it. Gives us hope and lifts our spirits. I hope the officers involved with george floyds death are brought to justice. I feel so bad for georges kids.
@Saint Augustine You're absolutely right. They stood around and did NOTHING while George was pleading for his life.. Officers who swore to PROTECT and serve.. How would you feel if they had their knee on your neck WHILE HANDCUFFED!
@Saint Augustine actually they did help hold him down his legs. Thats what i saw online. Never the less they are being charged with aiding and abetting. They all are facing charges but chauvin had his charges upgraded to 2nd degree murder now. Whether they convict them all remains to be seen. I personally hope they all face some kind of punishment. Most likely if chauvin goes to prison he wont last in there somebody will kill him.
Very powerful speech
I watched this live down here in Belgium. Very powerful. RIP George, mama's waiting
Sucker for Sharpton. Unbelievable.
We love you Belgium! Thank you for seeing this! Love from America...
Thank you for the articulate comment, pure braincandy!
Bey Meester “Brevity is the soul of wit.” Obviously you are witless.
Reverend Al took the country to church today. He shook mountains!
Be honest I was never a sharpton fan but this was the best eulogy speech ever. He hit everything right on the nail.
Tell the story Sharpton
God bless you, Rev. Al... and Mr. Floyd, your memory lives on forever. I pray that finally, "liberty and justice" will truly be a truth in this country.
Corona Pyrrhus how so?
Danny Deal god I hope you never commit any crime or maybe a cop will get his ego messed with and kneel on you until you are crying out for mercy and crying for your dead mama. Have some empathy you ball-less unich.
Awesome eulogy!! ❤️❤️❤️
He is in Heaven with his King and Savior He is in a Better place he has no More pain and suffering anymore may he Rest In Peace
I see alot of Hate for the Good Reverend..and it's ok you are intitled to your opinion. However I have watched Rev. Al Stand up for March and Preach some will say teach...African American people about the injustice inequality of this country. Whether you like him or Not he has done So. I Respect him and I admire him as well..Never Judge a Man unless You can walk in that Man's Shoes. RIP George Floyd and Power to the People.✊
I Respect Rev. AL.
I grew up in Harlem USA I've met the man
He's a Great Reverend in PERSON.
Bless his Endeavors.
No Justice No Peace
Praying for his family and friends. May God be our strength during this time of bereavement.
Thank the Lord for Reverand Al. I love you Reverand. God Bless you for the Truth expressed so powerfully. God Bless every wonderful Soul who is protesting. ENOUGH PAIN AND HUMILIATION!!! George is in Heaven with his Mama.
rest in peace, poor man.
if he committed any crime... he was due his day in court, not execution by cop.
Yes goddess ✊🏼✊🏼🙏🏼💪🏽💪🏽
I’ve read where the twenty he used wasn’t even counterfeit
Daina Perry yeah I did too and that’s makes it worse. His poor six year old has no dad!✊🏿✊🏾✊🏼✊🏽
Claire Conover Claire go gag
Claire Conover he was innocent he did nothing that murderer was just a racist with a badge hope he gets, the death penalty
No Justice....No Peace..Period!
REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE GEORGE! PRAISE GOD BEAUTIFUL SPEECH! SPEAK THE TRUTH MR. AL!!! 🙏🙏🙏❤
A very very strong message given by Al to the lawmakers.
Hallelujah! Difference between wanting peace, and wanting quiet.
I believe that George was calling his mother because he was passing over to the other side of justice and righteousness. George's mother not only had her arms open to receive her son George but so did our Sovereign Creator God and our Savior Jesus who died for ALL humanity. God always gives His people (the people of God all over) a sign that all is well with our loved one and Him because our loved one is with me now. George's fight is over and those of us who still remain must continue in the fight (living in righteousness and holiness with the help of the Holy Spirit); keep pressing toward the mark of the high calling which is in Christ Jesus. George fought a good fight in his earthen body and now he has a heavenly body. The enemy of George's soul thought that he had done something but he did NOT. What satan means for our (anyone who is a child of God) evil, God turns it around for good and His glory. Glory to God in the highest! God is our Strong tower! God is Mighty in battle! Hallelujah!!! May God's blessings overtake this family and all families everywhere. Amen! It is so! In Jesus Name!!!
Very nice👍
Amen
Foolish idiot! George Floyd should not have died in police custody. However check your facts, Floyd was a convicted felon, drug dealer and user, plus passing counterfeit currency. Did Floyd Repent in his heart, mind and soul? God will decide for everyone!
Y YIII ...look at you, spreading your hate at a murdered man’s funeral.
you’re not a mourner, you’re here to harass the mourners. you don’t belong here.
Well said 👍
Fantastic speech
U don't have to say bro I'm a muslim . We all same .. we all know the fact that muslims are beautiful people..
Don't sucide bomb..
@Johnny Those without sin cast the first stone.
Johnny get your knee of our neck
Ayush Patel Be dissent my brotha and respect the memory of a murdered fellow man
He preached his ass off
Lmao
Made me wanna go to church
Didn't he do it? That was powerful.
This is one hell of a speech. Boy! It was so crafted and perfectly presented touching all the right places. I have listened to it many times
Rev Sharpton was always a great speaker.
200,000 plus to Washington that is sending a message united as one. MLK knew the path to make a change. RIP George
I'm sooo tickled by all these angry comments...If I don't like a person or thing , I don't listen to them or follow them. If you don't like Al Sharpton ,why are you here.? You are not going to change the opinion of anyone that does like him. Find your like-minded audience and share your hatred with them...you may feel better.
Pam Steward my point exactly more than likely it's someone that's racist I wish all the racist people just go across a wall. That's what Trump should build a wall for racist devils.
They get an adrenaline rush...😂
@Bizarro Number 1 Bizarro Number 1 LOL Good one.
He is in Heaven With His King and Savior No More Pain And Suffering May He Rest In Peace
He Would Make a Great President
He was a criminal who broke into a pregnant woman's house, punched her in the stomach, and robbed her at a gunpoint, earning himself 5 years of sentence. At the end he was charged for using counterfeit bills. I am not justifying the action of the police officer but Floyd was no hero that deserves such outrage. In other words he was no better than Charles Manson and he is burning in hell for eternity.
Beautiful said it is time to rise and demand justice and accountability
Preach, Preacher! Take your knee off our neck!
Jewels inSD To whom, are you speaking?
I graduated high school , married , college etc. my children have college degrees one of them has two masters!
Jewels inSD obviously you are a few sandwiches short of a picnic yourself to make such asinine assumptions and egregious claims against those who definitely do not fit your selective narratives!
My grandmother said common sense is not common. Wow 💯
Indeed no justice no peace
Brother George should be celebrating his life instead of us mourning his death. Rest in Peace Brother George!
The tribute to African American mamas left me in tears. I have been listening to the part again and again. It will stay in history as Martin Luther King Jr's I have dream part. It's the most powerful and awesome tribute to mothers. They are the pillars of families and nations. America! the whole world is watching. The whole world is deeply moved from Europe, to Africa, to the Asia to Pacific. Hope is permitted. African Americans have a tremendous survival capacity. Native Americans were completely wiped out. African Americans survived and are still there, making gains in spite of untold oppression and suppression. They excel in sports, music, entertainment, literature etc. They shall overcome racism and subjugation.
It's a different time. It's a different season. 🙏
@Marie First thing is first... If you want to be taken seriously learn grammar. Second, WOOSH this is way over your head and anyone else's head that doesn't get it and doesn't realize this transcends racial injustice. This isn't about " give me , give me, give me" in addition to racial injustice it's about equality, progression, and accountability.
As a medical scientist I had to go through years of education, and an internship. YEARS. Yet , we have a police force that gets training for 6 months and all the sudden they are experts? Some with a mere highschool education, and nothing else. No psychological or social training, and no basic health fundamentals. You are missing the point just like so many others.
@@TheVoidofNothing11 My thoughts exactly!
Al Sharpton have me bawling right now. It is time!!!
Lord have mercy 🥺
Mercy on what? God will decide for everyone if you Repented or not!
Y YIII yes he will. You cannot love with love in the church with hate in your heart
Yep. Lord have mercy on George Floyd's soul because he is going to need it. Has everyone forgotten he lived a very bad life of drug dealing and he was part of a gang. We all know what gangs do.
Wow! What a beautiful speech! 🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼 wise man!
I've never enjoyed a speech this long but this time I wished this one never ends👏👏
this was powerfull.
Yes!!!!!!!!! AMEN!!!!! Get off the necks of the poor and colored!!!!
@Bizarro Number 1 Bizarro Number 1 WE GONE GET IT TOGETHER THO!!! LOOK OUT FOR US COMING SOON!
We are not colored. We are Hebrews. Children of the Most High.
@Bizarro Number 1 Bizarro Number 1 I know you are an immature fragile little troll, so go away.
Bizarro Number 1 Bizarro Number 1 I think people should just stop killing don’t you? Don’t you believe black lives matter too? I’m sure you won’t simply reply with a yes without some sort of racist comment
Condolences from Australian Tamils and Tamil Eelam Tamils.🙏🙏🙏
Rev. Al Sharpton preached that word. I have always respected him and he has always cared about black people.
yes and the hell with what other people say about him he is the man for our times and do a good job representing our people
This moment will go in the history books along with Martin Luther King's I have a Dream and The Emancipation Proclamation.
The quest for equality still goes on, but this just might be the final step to equality.
Martin Luther was a lot more intelligent.
Great, great eulogy Rev Al Sharpton
Very profound. I cried. This is the "I have a Dream" speech of 2020 for sure!!
No, it's the I HAVE A SCHEME speech. Sharpton is vile and disgusting.
Mother America
Although I am very fair skin, my coun·te·nance is black, although I was raised by a white mother, my experience is black, although I have the blood of many nations running through my veins the blood I bleed is black, I have loved a black man, I have married a black man, I have birthed black children.
I am a black woman who loves self, my identity is so tied up in black culture I resonate across several generations of knowledge of a continent that birthed the world. My pride,my song, my soul is that of a African people who built everything you see. We are the foundation America was built upon our backs, blood, sweat and tears. What do you fear? Why must you kill those whom you came from? It was at my breast you suckled after your first breath, I fed you as I did my own, at times neglecting my child to make sure you had enough! Was my sacrifice not filling to your belly?, was Not my blood , sweat and tears, the sustenance this country grew on?, I have given, and given, and given of myself until I am empty. I will no longer stand silent as you kill my children simply for the rich melanin that covers their skin. I will wail, rage, fight, claw, beat my drums, scream til I can no longer speak, until you hear me to the depths of your Depravity until you understand that you came from me! I am mother of all! This black woman created all!
Diamondnoire speaks
Amazing how everything Sharpton says, has a very deep meaning. It strikes the soul, the heart, the mind, the physical experience (of chills down my back). Thank u for preaching so well Rev. Sharpton. beautiful eulogy.
Dont understand all the hate! Yall need to STOP!
Whi need to stop
Thank you Rev. Al. I listened and I understand... TY, TY!
Our brother will get justice
Rev. Al Sharpton took this moment, reflecting on the tragic death of George Floyd, as an opportunity to speak to the Common Good. This is a speech that will go down in history. Thank you, Rev. Sharpton! I offer sympathy to George Floyd's family for their profound, enduring loss.
A eulogy for the ages. Magnificent, divine!
I knew you rewinded this Eulogy because it was so powerful. I did too 😊
Lord he is PREACHING!!!!! Got me shoutin! My neighbors got to be like what is going on 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂😂😂😂📖📖😂😂
dimples p ❤
Yessssssssss that's Rev. Al
Rev Al Sharpton, courageous, articulate, a bigot’s nightmare. Keep shining the light on those “roaches”.
😂😂😂😂
George Floyd, we love you & your mom, rest in peace with Jesus Christ .Amen.
Exactly.
To everyone. At all times.
If you commit a crime in this country, you must pay for the crime you committed.
Amen.
What's interesting is that Floyd's partner and friend got into the police car -- no troubles. He's fine. Floyd did not.
Same thing as with Rodney King.
@ I'm guessing your a white kid
Asian and black police officers were charged, it goes to show you that the uniform carries the devil.
yes. 100%
@@davidfearon2772
The uniform? You think it's the shoes, Mars Blackmon?
He speaks better than our president!
... almost everyone speaks better then 45.
I'm the first few minutes I was already in years from these powerful words
AMEN
Condolences from my family (sunny family), father, mother,my brother,his wife and his daughter.
I will let them know i sent this message.
Who ever disliked this video is full of hate.
jhon doe Ok,if you did more research you would see that he moved to Minnesota to change his life,he didn’t shoot the woman and you are ignorant white racist trump supporter egg head.So do more research next time before you comment
If he open the Bible, he probably can't understand it. It's for us our HISTORY book. That gentile is too far gone along with those other four heathens. They got our ancestors stirred up. This is getting deep , people all over are tired of it.
The Atlantic shaking underneath. Them Slaves who jumped to their death to die instead of Sacrificing their lives to MAKE America GREAT Again. They knew in their chains America couldn't be great built on their backs. Here comes them damn Hurricanes admit. The Souls of the Ancestors
Rev Al Sharpton, an inspiration to the world
Beautiful Eulogy. Rest In Heavenly Peace Mr. George Floyd💞💞💞💞💞❤❤❤❤❤
The Rock called out Trump today...RIP Mr.Floyd Americans got it from here
Called him our for WHAT? Did he call out Al Charlatan ?
@Troll
CorvetteKid exactly!
Who cares what a damn celeb has to say? That’s our problem now!
Yes he did.
God bless you, Rev. I tune it to Politics Nation every weekend. May America tune into the truth of your message.
Watching from the Bahamas to the family and friends of George floyd have my sincere condolences
Epic eulogy from a great speaker. This speech will be remembered for centuries!
In the same league with Martin Luther's "I have a dream ' speech.
Much respect Al.
This guy has done nothing his entire life but call people racist that’s it
If this is your position, then you are racist. If you reevaluation your statement you'll easily conclude it is almost impossible to call anyone a racist without just cause. Where were you educated???
And you already know the white house occupant cares about nobody, if you are a billionaire he may care about you.....karma don't play you may be careful how you talk in life everything comes back to you.... life always send you a bill... think before you talk brother.
Helyn Mcnish Ask Ben Shapiro
Helyn Mcnish *reevaluate
Helyn Mcnish And you’re talking about education 😂🤦🏽♂️
I love Al Sharpton. I love it when he speaks. I stated to clap harder when he was talking about George Flyod’s mom reaching her hand out to him RIP George Thanks Al.
TAKE YOUR KNEES OF OUR NECKS! I TOLD MY LOVELY WIFE TODAY, I AM GOING TO JOIN REV AL AND SHE SAID, YOU ALWAYS SAY THAT! REV AL MENTIONED THE SCRIPTURE I WOULD GIVE THIS SO CALL CHRISTIANS WHO WOULD TELL ME I COULDN’T GO DANCING BECAUSE I AM A CHRISTIAN
Whoa. His life’s work has been leading to this moment. It feels like Sharpton has nothing left to lose and smells blood in the water. He managed to stay alive when his his friends were assassinated in the 60’s. Amazing. Amen.
This speaker is so inspiring! I've never understood why people are racist etc. I really think things are gonna change after this with the protests, and so they should!
I never understood racism. We all have to live in this world together. It's not just a one race world. It's a world of many races, and God is in charge of it.
Justice for GEORGE FLOYD AND HIS FAMILY and all black people suffering injustice at hands of white police everywhere .
Powerful speech. 💪🏼
May give you justice that you deserves. Rest on
REST IN POWER, KING🖤✊🏻

@Tan Lion STFU
A king doesn't try to pass bad money.
My God he preached!!!
He is absolutely right I was thinking the same way that he feel the soul of his mother
Did he and four other men feel their mothers soul when they broke in the door, assaulted and robbed a pregnant woman in her own home!
I hope his mother's soul is whipping him and telling him to repent and kneel before God!
This man preach, knee on our kneck.l love this. Away with racism, we are all the same, created by one God. Am actually thinking of voting this man as president 😊
Tom Brutis thank you for recognizing that...I’m so pissed. I cannot believe that we are white Americans and the enemy. I’m very upset and hurt. This guy is starting a bunch of deep pockets whites including me and I cried because I thought they need to stop protesting and I’m always harrassed by black officers.
20 thousand new cases of that virus yesterday. So those protesters are all spreading the virus
@@karenhermon8926 You don't make any sense. Sorry, but its true.
Christian McBrearty who are you
Yep, the same man who accused a white cop of rape, the same man who help fuel the anti-semetic killing in Brooklyn, the same man who words kill an Indian manager in the Harlem store, the same man who sit on stage with Farakhan, while attacking other as racist.
Wonderful eulogy
Yes he managed to skillfully avoid talking about the kind of life George lived.
This is one of the greatest speeches I’ve ever heard
POWERFUL!!
This will go down in history as one of the greatest speeches in the world.
