Whether one is a person of faith or not, Rev. Barber [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbjhzI1g3EE] was intelligent, articulate and passionate. Head of the NC NAACP and organizer of the Moral Mondays to confront our current state government, both the executive branch and the legislative branch.

PBS only cut to him about halfway through his speech, apparently surprised to realize his speech was "worth" broadcasting. Really surprised me. CBS broadcast none of it. The demconvention site broadcast all of it.

If you are of a monotheistic religious persuasion, I think he articulates the heart of the core values (not the rules, the values) of the three related monotheistic religions arising from the ancient mideastern world remarkably well.
