We are in a time of immense historical meaning. Yet we are still fighting the same fights that we have always struggled with: racism, discrimination, crime, drugs, low expectations. It is time for us to step up. Make the decision to be the change you want to see…if you don’t know how, ask until you get some help. If we dont’ begin the change within ourselves, we will always suffer at the hands of someone else.

This message from Bishop T. D. Jakes calls on men to “Fight Back.” All men, no matter your race, creed, or color, must make the decision to be men. You are either going to continue to be held down with a foot on your neck or you are going to wrestle free. I say with all the love in my heart…stop trying and do!

  • Girl, it was awesome to see SO MANY MEN who want to take back what the devil has stolen from them! Since moving to TX I have learned many things one is that Bishop Jakes has so many haters it is unbelievable but the other is whether you like him or hate him he always gives you something to make you think internally!


    It is time for people to stop blaming others for their ills and stand up and "Fight Back"!

    Awesome Word of the day!

    By the way I have an award for you.
  • That is what drew me to this video...seeing these men run down the stairs to the alter is a beautiful thing!


    Thanks for the award...you are awesome!
  • SjP
    Like Nike! Just do it!


    This was awesome. I get so tired of hearing and even seeing what "men are doing" that it warms my heart and soul to see so many "doing it" and fighting back!
  • Me too, SjP...I got so teary eyed at this video and just knew I had to use it!
