Thank you for doing this video. When I participated in your book launch video I came away wondering how I could experience more of your dynamic teaching. I think the video approach is the answer.

Love Saint Thea♥️

The video was excellent! It condensed the message of your book into something easy to digest. Some people don’t have the time to read a book so a video gets the message quicker. Thank you!

Thanks for doing this. It is wonderful. I had wished you would have captured Sr. Thea singing at the Bishop's gathering. The opening clip was incredible and the image of the weary war horse a powerful force. Keep doing this because there is nothing like the faces and expressions of the fighters. We can read their words but seeing and hearing makes their presence felt. (It also will sell books because you will see and hear them as live forces as you see and digest the words on paper.)

Wonderful presentation, Dr. Tisby. You are a pleasant orator and the material you chose to highlight is both interesting and educational. Videos such as this could reach people who may not take the time to read a whole book. Thank you and bless you!

Thank you so much for this video. I not only learned a lot, but the heroes featured inspired me to do more about social justice. The opening with Myrlie Evers-Williams really 'drew' me in, and I had to watch the rest of the video.

Yes, yes, yes! These videos are so good to share and I can use them in our Racial Justice Study Group, which will begin studying The Spirit of Justice in October.

This was a very engaging video. Hope you do more! My husband and I have begun listening to the audible version on our walks and I preordered the hardback for myself. I’ve been following you since you spoke at a Transform Minnesota event. Thanks for writing about and modeling the character qualities you highlighted in this video.
