Roland DISMANTLES Fla.State Rep. Kimberly Daniels' Resurfaced 'Thank God For Slavery' Sermon 

Did the congregation walk out? If they didn’t they should have !

We need to educate our kids on African history every day not just on black history month. Please spend 1 hour a day with your kids.

Dr. Malvo said, 'You don't have to go to Disney World to find Goofy.' That says it all.

Speaking for my Mother @ 98yrs. "Never in her life has She heard anything so dumb".

This needs to be shared with the mainstream media. No place else have I heard ANYONE talk about the fact that adults enslaved already came with skills. Colonizers paid more for tradesmen, farmers, fishers, etc based on those skills. BP weren’t sitting in Africa like cave people without the ability to feed, clothe, and house ourselves. Africans and their descendants are not savages but what was done to us was savage.

Her statement sounded like she’s still dealing with the residuals of crack.

i am African and grew up in Africa never worshipped a tree in all of my life neither did my parents they went to school studied worked and raised their family so this woman is so ignorant and if this is the product of her American heritage I'm fine and a proud African

Every day we need to educate ourselves and our community and our children!!

Once again, " All skin folk , ain't kin folk "

I've heard such insanity before. The lunacy of being grateful for slavery conveys she has no understanding of the horrors of slavery and what her ancestors actually endured.

Roland, you are speaking the truth, and please keep doing it. Thanks.

Ignorance is a Dangerous thing in action 😢😢😢

I’m tired of people using Africa for negative remarks.

Ignorance is a hell of a drug

If it wasn’t for the crack house, we probably wouldn’t have gotten that cracked out sermon

SHES THEIR PUPPET,LIKE CLARENCE, HERSCHEL WALKER,MTG,AND A LOT OTHERS! JUST SICKENING! 🤬

The horrors of slavery the oppressive terror of slavery. The loss of all humanity. And the evil of the slaver. And never ever compensated. That poor lost woman.

As an African man, I really want my African-American brothers and sisters to learn more about Africa. Take a trip if you get a chance so we can eradicate the ignorance.

I'm a 71 year old white grandpa down here in Florida, and I watch you all the time on RU-vid. I applaud you on all of your videos, becaue all Americans need to hear the truth. We are living in a time of ultimate propaganda from the republicans, and opposing voices need to be loud. Thank you for your contribution.

I am shocked! Absolutely shocked that no one..not a person stood up and said”you thank god for slavery?” I not only would have said that, but also I would have said to my family “let’s get out of this crackhouse church” she is bugging

“Some were called, some were sent , some just packed their bags and went!” For her to stand in the pulpit and say that kind of foolishness is asinine!!!

She is what self hatred looks like.

What’s more frightening is the folks sitting up under her foolishness.

THE ONLY THING SHE SHOULD BE THANKING GOD FOR IS DELIVERING HER FROM THE CRACK HOUSE😅

Thank you Roland Martin. Slavery was an absolute abomination.

This woman should be a wake up call to us about the dangers of being educated by oppressors and indoctrinated to hate ourselves. 😢

We are and have always been our worst enemy! Sad how easy some sell out!😡

No business preaching, AMEN!

This craziness is sad, but most importantly it is destructive to the struggle for equality and progress. To let her and DeSantis tell it, slavery was an apprenticeship program. SMDH. She should be ashamed. What’s sadder is that she has a congregation.

Roland, We all love you and appreciate you! YOU CAN'T BE BLACK OWN MEDIA AND BE SCARED! Roland Martin Unfiltered, BLACK POWER MEDIA ✊🏾✊🏾✊🏾

Listen, I’m from Florida and I’m also a practicing Folloer of Christ. Lord, Roland EVERY TIME you replayed that video, I know you can’t see me, I WAS SOO FREAKIN EMBARRASSED❗️ I literally turned my head looking at the ceiling as though you did see me. I am so EMBARRASSED because this woman KNOW NOT WHAT SHE DID. That was so illiterate 🙈 🙈🙈That degree was bought 💰

This is so embarrassing as a black woman 😮

The only people who benefitted from slavery were the plantation owners and the slave catchers, along with the Southern confederacy and the Northern industrialist. I am 68, and I've read everything from Before the Mayflower to The 1619 Project; and I still haven't discovered the benefits.

This is why people need to know more about Africa. This is what they tell you in the History books to justify the way they treated the continent.

😢 as an African woman, her comment made me sad.. a 🌳??!! So, slavery gave us brains??!

Ive been to her church in the Durkeville area of Jacksonville, FL. Her congregation sang and danced for two hours before she even showed up. They were at church while she was at home. When she finally showed up she talked about President Obama and complained about someone adjusting the thermostat in her church for about twenty minutes and that was the service

Roland she forgot our brothers and sisters were hung on those same trees. which Billie Holiday called strange fruit.

The life span of an enslaved person was between 7-35 years. Slavery lasted 200+ years. So how the heck could an enslaved person "parlay" learned skills to enrich their future.

She is the perfect product of her oppressor. The lack of knowledge and understanding is severe. She is their dream Prop.

Like they say “some were called, some were sent and some just went😢

The crack house got her in her feeling and Republicans are loving her 😂😂😂

Africa is the cradle of civilization Ms Daniels

She got NO applause! NOBODY came along. She is outrageous. And I knew when Roland started pacing, IT WAS ON!!😂

That's pure ignorance. she has no business preaching. I'm a Jamaican Canadian living in Canada 🇨🇦. Thank you Roland , for the education, and for bringing this to the forefront.

Roland you are beyond intelligent! I love how you call out foolish Blacks AND whites. smh. And this aint the first time I heard this dangerous rhetoric and IN church. smh. I love you, Roland. Love you sooooo much!

This is why I am so very selective when it comes to choosing a pastor to listen to. Some of them will lead you astray. Choose wisely people!! That’s it. That’s the message.

That whole congregation should’ve got up and walked out. This is disgraceful.

Kim Daniels went to the same "school" as Tim Scott, Clarence Thomas, Larry Elder. I think Keri Lake was trying to pass so she went in the evening.

She is I-G-N-O-R-A-N-T !!!!

DeSantis cannot legislate against all mediums and formats that deliver knowledge about African American history. His attempts to do so, in the advent and advances of the internet and the easy accessibility it gives you to data, is akin to him trying to catch the sea with a sieve. I find it absolutely extraordinary, that anyone could make such statements, given the incontrovertible documentation of the horrors of slavery. The double shift that our courageous female slave ancestors were forced to pull, in the day picking cotton in the field , and at night, subjugated to further untold horrors of sexual abuse and she sees benefits in slavery? Wow! This statement tells you how emotionally and intellectually under developed she still remains-despite her education.She forgets that in parts of Africa, in addition to indigenous faiths such as polytheism, there were also Falashas jews, also the fact that the Muslim faith spread into North Africa by the mid-7th century AD -yet she is on an education task force? As the panel have highlighted, what is so disappointing is there are no shortages of fool's willing to front DeSantis' nonsense, and sell out their people, for their own personal self aggrandizement!

Thank you, Roland!! As a fellow African who actually grew up in the Motherland, you actually got our religion/spirituality!! I believe it may have been too sophisticated for the invaders, hence they reduced it to "paganism". We did not worship inanimate objects, but rather, as you said, we appreciated or saw the "god" in them as God is the creator of all!! As for Rep. Daniels, She's a victim of her education! This is what she was taught and unfortunately, she believed it. Trust me, she's not the only one with this belief!!! This is why DeSantis does not want our true history taught; he, and people like him, would like more Rep. Daniels in this country.

A good presentation. I am thankful to Roland Martin and Black Star Network. Keep up the work.

This woman has completely lost her entire mind. WOW!😡

This woman is looney tooney.

10:19 PREACH Roland!👏🏿 The problem now is a lot of black folks on social media will believe and repeat this mess! She smoked one to many rocks at that rock house....

Spot On Roland I myself a Black Man was 3/5 of a Person until 1965. And this is not to denigrate National Religions 🌎🌍 World wide.

Preach it Roland!

She just made some bad decisions in her life and now she blames Africa and crack cocaine!

This woman is like Candace Owens and Jesse Lee Peterson rolled up in one

Now @rolandmartin, you broke that situation down! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾Because what she is speaking, I have never heard or believe as a believer of God!

Thank God for Roland calling out foolishness. Very disappointing to see such ignorance come out of a so called pastor`s mouth. Heartbreaking someone from the motherland can be so shameless with their ignorance. ..

I wish someone would tell that DMF that islf she was alive back then she wouldn't have worried about worshipping trees. She'd be worried about being hung from them.

I’m more worried about the people in her congregation and the people that voted for her. They are validating and supporting that foolishness

Wow, this woman's words are outstandingly dusturbing......🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

Once I heard crack house, I chocked on my drink. Sounds like she's still in there. SMDH.

Thank you Roland I appreciate your show. I feel our people really need to know who they are and who's they are. Most of our people have no idea who they are. HALLELUYAH

I am so surprised that there was not a mass Exodus of her conjugation when she made that statement!🤔😱

As an atheist Afro American black man who was married in Africa, Ethiopia. I can hold the view that the ownership of other people is/was immoral NO EQUIVOCATION!

Ignorance can be found in low and high positions, the street and the church.

Teach until the walls of ignorance come down, Roland!!❤❤❤❤

She needs to read more! And, she the kind of pastor BLACK PPL DONT NEED! She doesn’t know biblically what she just said😡

Just like Richard Pryor said. Religion has messed a lot of folk up.

I have been saved for 23 years. This was ridiculous, you noticed how quiet her congregation was. The quietness showed how much they were in awe of what she was saying. I love your content, because you always break it down with historical facts. Like when you shut down Megan Kelly.

We NEED to self educate ourselves thoroughly about AFRICA to better inform and educate OUR CHILDREN.🤎✨🌍

Wow Was that Candace Owens auntie or Tim Scott's sister or maybe Kanye West cousin they sound like they related I feel you Mr Roland something is terribly wrong with that picture

The word says you will know them by their fruit. Who would embraced slavery but someone who is not connected to God . Smh

If she had to endure slavery personally I really don’t think that this would be her attitude. She has been taught about Africa (more than likely like I was as a youngster) in the most unflattering way that she believes in what she was taught. Once you learn the truth it will set you free (been there and was amazed at the lies I thought were true)…

Simply means we truly need to stay woke and WAKE UP in other cases.....How did she even make it on a ticket for any kind of official anything? So SAD!😢

Preach Unc. Ro Ro!!!!! 🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙌🏾

This is what a lot of people have become. Anything for money and recognition.

And this is the fool they tapped to write Florida’s new curriculum. WTF, is going on in Florida!!!

Did you guys edit the sound out? I did not hear any of the congregation saying Amen or clapping...😂😂

Thank you for this segment. I agree with everything said. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

She's ignorant, im speechless 😮

Thank you Roland. I’m a former pastor and I can tell you that you know way more than many other pastors that I know 😂. After so many years, I’ve gotten exhausted with the whole institution. I love Jesus and became grieved by how the teachings have been hijacked. You spoke exactly what needs to be said as you often do.

She said "Thank God for the crackhouse." She also said that "if it weren't for slavery, she would be worshipping a tree"? Really?? What the what is THIS?? WOW!!! Now I have heard it all. Florida, you all can do better than this!! 😂😂😅😅

I love that we are getting these real black history lessons!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

❤ from the UK. The shared experience is acknowledged. Shout louder!

Pray for the sista, she's lost in darkness and will speak any uneducated words for money. Shame on her for putting her own people down.

I’m speechless😮 and my stomach hurts! I’m praying for her congregation!

There is no way I would have stayed in that congregation. When will our people educate ourselves about our history.

Tell it, so many of our people don’t know the truth.

That is very Selfish & The Devil came out of her Mouth.😠W.T.Heck!

called self hate she need to go to sleep so she can wake TFU

The Bible says”my people are destroyed because of a lack of knowledge. This woman clearly doesn’t understand the Bible because if she did she wouldn’t be trying to pastor a church.

As the old folks say "Ignorance is bliss". False prophets are everywhere. Teaching and preaching foolishness happens because these preachers are demonic. Their interests are money, possessions and mind control. How have our churches become havens for such nonsense? Our children are being molested: families broken... Wake up everybody, no more sleeping ... The world won't get any better, if we just let it be. 🙏🌐💕

Personal benefit refers to the direct advantage or profit that an individual gains from their actions or decisions. This might include financial gains, increased social standing, improved skills, or greater knowledge. It's the advantage one gets that enhances their personal circumstances or capacities in some way. When it comes to the question of slaves, it is essential to clarify that slavery was a cruel and dehumanizing institution where people were treated as property and forced to work without proper compensation or basic human rights. Here's a brief explanation regarding the question of personal benefits for slaves: Slaves did not enjoy personal benefits: Dehumanization: Slaves were not considered humans but were viewed as property or commodities. This view denied them the opportunity to enjoy basic human rights, let alone personal benefits. No Freedom: Slaves did not have the freedom to make choices that could lead to their personal benefit. They were not allowed to make decisions about their life, work, or leisure, thus denying them the possibility of pursuing personal gains. Economic Exploitation: Slaves did not receive any wages for their hard labor. They were exploited for economic benefits that went to their masters, not to them. This meant they were denied financial gains that could contribute to their personal benefit. Lack of Education: Most slaves were not provided with education, which could potentially contribute to personal benefits. Education offers individuals the chance to improve their skills and knowledge, which can lead to personal and economic growth. This opportunity was typically denied to slaves. Physical and Psychological Abuse: Slaves often suffered physical and psychological abuse, which hindered their well-being and personal development. The constant fear and torment denied them mental peace and personal growth, thereby negating any chance for personal benefit. While slaves may have found ways to create moments of joy, resilience, or resistance within their enslaved conditions, these should not be mistaken for the typical "personal benefits" enjoyed by free individuals. Slavery was a brutal institution that systematically and structurally denied enslaved people the rights and opportunities that could lead to personal benefits.

Not making light of this discussion of absolute ludicrousness... But Roland cracks me up when after he hears an asinine comment/rant... And then takes the longest pause to just think 🤔 about nonsense he just heard & HAS to hear it again. That's golden 😊

Im a 74 yr old white woman, I'm so worried about our corrupt system. This all started many years ago but we have to change. This woman has no shame, she is a liar and thankyou for showing her ignorance. No one would want to be a slave, no matter what. 😮😮😮😢

Thank you, Roland, for your platform and for bringing this creature to the attention of the public. It is of my opinion this woman has no connection with the most high God who is the creator of all. She does serve a God just not this one. She has been seasoned well in order to say and do what she does against black people. Her congregation keeps her fed. How unfortunate. They should have gotten up and left after this sermon Foolish and evil people. The Bible speaks of people like this. You wonder why people are leaving the church now you know.
