What Did You Do About It?...Rosario Dawson

"I remember my friend said that she had talked to Chelsea Clinton after [Chelsea had read] Bill Clinton's book. And she'd never thought about it, but her (Chelsea) Dad was a little boy during segregation. ...and she was like,  'Whoa, Wow Dad...what that must have been like. What did you do about it?'

And just know each and every one of you at some point will get asked that question. Cause there is a lot of things that are happening right here and right now. It's not about being nostalgic and looking at the past. Or just about always assuming we're just gonna get there somehow in the future. We have to participate. And there's going to be a lot of kids at some point that are gonna look at you and go, 'Wow during all of these things that were going on in the world, what did you do about it?' And hopefully you all can say that you voted...at the very least."*

Your Actions Says It All...Theodore Roosevelt

“There are good men [women] and bad men [women] of all nationalities, creeds and colors; and if this world of ours is ever to become what we hope some day it may become, it must be by the general recognition that the man’s [women's] heart and soul, the man’s [women's] worth and actions, determine his standing.”

--Theodore Roosevelt

Do You Know Your Assignment?...Renita Weems

A sermon is only as great as it moves listeners to do something. To be-come different. To act differently in the world.  To change — self and the world. Great sermons leave you with an assignment.
