And look into who is funding the news source that you get your news from and where there might be conflicts of interest that affect what they tell you!! So many people just blindly trust CNN, FOXnews,MSNBC or they trust celebrities or Facebook!

Th bible talks about fire falling from the sky at the end times. People are disobidient to God. Lgbt are taking the rainbow outa context. It never rained before in the days of noah until that flood started to hapen. The rainbow was a promise that the earth wont be flooded nomore... its the fire next time.

      I’m a fan of his music myself, but that does not mean that I condone speaking without knowing anything about what you’re saying.

    Anyone who has followed Dave for the 20 or more years will know he hits the right notes every time when. It comes to social commentary , by Dave and Colin sacrificing millions in the name of principal , integrity self respect, and justice as Dave said growing up he was well informed and Colin said if we that are in position don’t make noise then we’re complicit to the crime , this shows these two men were well brought up and may god bless their parents cause this separates them from the bought niggas the billionaire music moguls an millionaire artist who can’t talk cause they’re prisoners in their own money which explains why they can’t come out publicly and show support for these two great men , they will be marked along side the other black great contributors some who sacrificed their lives to shine the light for black people but for some reason we go back to the dark , so are all these sacrifices in vain ? When are we gonna work out to stop these prejudices among ourselves come together under one umbrella as one ☝️ an put end to the devide an rule theory working on us , other wise these peoples efforts will be in vain and we will have another 100 years of the same bullshit. These great men truly deserve every accolade to be bestowed upon them Colin gave his knee which resignated all around the world an said what Dave has been saying for years with his knee, this was was tearful to watch but tears of joy , an proudness. I watch Dave with Maya Anglo an now this , quite impressive becoming a force to be reckoned with, I think all black people must watch this or made to especially KANYE they should handcuff to a table an made to watch over an over might be good therapy for the billionaire mental patient trapped in his money. Watching these two great men hug and congratulate each other was moving made u feel why can’t we be like this as a people? Two people one cause Two billion people one cause !!! Imagine!!!! These two great men hugging an congratulating each other exemplified pure greatness if u didn’t know what great looks like now u know !! May god guide bless an protect these two great men an their families an their parents for doing an excellent job. People take heed change your mindset release yourself from mental slavery!!!!!!!!!

Both men appear to be saying instead that white people are capable of much good, but it hurts all of us when they cannot seemingly confront their capacity for evil. This is also not unique to white folks. Don’t forget that Dave has interacted with and worked with more white people than the average black person.

Christians are telling people Jesus is comming. noone wants to believe. Th bible talks about fire falling from the sky at the end times. People are disobidient to God.

      I'm definitely looking forward to Dave's next special, because it sounds like he's not going to be pulling any punches. But, if you're interested, the James Baldwin quote itself is a reference to 2 Peter Chapter 3 from the Bible. The whole chapter is dealing with the topic, but the briefest way to directly address the quote are verses 6 and 7, here rendered in NIV.
      6 By these waters also the world of that time was deluged and destroyed. 7 By the same word the present heavens and earth are reserved for fire, being kept for the day of judgment and destruction of the ungodly.
      For the rainbow sign, you've got to go back to the Old Testament, Genesis 9. Here's the briefest quote that would cover it.
      13 I have set my rainbow in the clouds, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. 14 Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, 15 I will remember my covenant between me and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.
