The Rev. Dr. James A. Forbes Jr.: No Justice, No Righteousness

Written By Children's Defense Fund on Friday, Aug 17, 2012 | 11:02 AM

 
The Rev. Dr. James A. Forbes Jr., Senior Minister Emeritus of The Riverside Church and president of the Healing of the Nations Foundation, preaches about justice at the Children's Defense Fund's National Conference in Cincinnati, Ohio on Sunday, July 22 during the Multi-Faith Children's Sabbath Service. "It IS necessarily so -- you've GOT to have JUSTICE," he said to an audience of 3,000 advocates, organizers, researchers and young leaders. If there's no justice, there's no righteousness. He ended by urging everyone to take action and agitate until justice is the law of the land. Take action.
