#Juneteenth #OurDailyBread #Emancipation #EndSlavery #Documentary #OpalLee
One of the best documentaries about Juneteenth I have seen. Powerful!
I'm an African from South Africa. I would like to say, we are with you in spirit, we love you. We cry together and that we will always identify with you.
Thank you My brother!
Thank you.
Thank you we all need this from all of us...teach one reach all...
It means so very much to hear, others do care. We need each other so desperately to grow from this. Much luv and respect!
Whew this made me tear up 🥹. Thank you ❤.
🙏🏼😢Ancestors endured hell on earth so we are here today
Indeed they did, @TheeQueenDiva. 🙏
I want all to know I'm here in Izmir Turkey same as being behind the Irion Curtin .
Thank you for this documentary! We were not taught Black History in school, and THEY say CRT is racist...smh!!!
I am a young white American, and I am beyond grateful for this awareness 😢 my heart forever with you all
Thank you for watching with us, Corinne Morrill! We appreciate your kind words. 💗
Thank you for your heart!
May God continue to Bless you with your awareness that we are created equally.
I am a Foundational Black American and we must keep fighting for our ancestors; past, present and future generations. If you are a FBA in American this Juneteenth Holiday belongs to you and your offsprings no matter what state you lived in. #Reparations
Thank you thank you so much. I'm 49 and yes we have came along way an still have more to accomplish in this God fo saken country. That we built. God I love being black honestly and will never forget my ancestors." Throw my ashes in the ocean with my ancestors".
Wow, at 89 Ms. Opal thought she hadn't done enough. Moses was 80. God uses folk in all ages to assist Him in creating a movement to let His will flow. Hallelujah to the Lamb of God. Let us allow ourselves to be used by the Hand of God. Let us all open our hands wide and say, Lord, here I am....use me. ❤🙏💕

Ms. Opal did her 2.5 mile march this morning! Texas is blessed to have her.
Wow! I'm Haitian American sitting here crying!! I came to the US when I was 12. I never learned about Black WallStreet, the Oklahoma Massacre, or Juneteenth until recently. Those history classes left out what they wanted to leave out. There's so much more we in the diaspora community need to learn about our fellow brothers and sisters. This furthers proves why we need to unite as people of color. Thank you so much. This documentary was moving, inspiring, and eye-opening.
Thank you for watching with us, @yasminescookingshow!
I appreciate your comment because many immigrants come to the United States thinking that AA are lazy. When in actuality, the majority of our efforts were systematically and intentionally destroyed.
Reading your comments Yasmine reminded me of the 1st slaves to free themselves with a physical rebellion as a group were Haitians. And it's been duly recorded that European former enslavers and supporters of the institution of slavery sought to punish the Haitian people consistently even until today in some quarters. One reason why Haitian boat people were repeatedly turned away from American shores. The Haitian insurgents were our 1st heroes and sheroes. American slaves were the last to gain freedom because we were too outnumbered to physically defeat our oppressors. But still our brave fought throughout America to gain our physical freedom. All chattel slaves were from the same west African continent so our blood and tribal ties are firmly connected. So Yasmine we are one. And as one we are obligated to save Haiti and all other former slave countries throughout the Caribbean and beyond. We have enough wealth and influence to do so here in America where we're all living and in close proximity to. Our history and present situation can't be thought of as separate. Hopefully Yasmine we'll come to that realization that we really can change and save ourselves from future oppression that is still being meted out in subtle and obvious ways. So your heart Yasmine is correct in the way that it feels when it recognizes the connection between us all. We must use our powerful intellect to complete our work of making ourselves whole as a new people. Much love sister ❤️
It's so grateful to see so many from other parts of the world to open their hearts to all of us here in America whom have lived with the stories and whom have had to endure the pain from within slavery. Thank you so much and we love you through the richness of our blood.
I appreciate you . kindness to my beloved humble kindly people learning and understanding more knowledge and belief of your wisdom in life history. Keeping my faith in my spiritual being to shine the world light 🕯️ on all of the meek ones . We here ! 🕯️🕯️🕯️
This is June 19, 2024 and I found this site today by chance, it made me weep for the Past, Present and Future of my people yet through the tears the joy of the Lord became my strength to say Thank You this was an amazing documentary wonderful production and Many Blessings to all involved.
The torture that was put a onto, my people. I would love for my people to just sit down and watch these films, so that they can see exactly what was put onto our people maybe it can make us appreciate each other and treat each other with respect, love and care🙏🏽❤️.
My church is predominantly white and they welcomed this documentary with open arms!! Thank you! “GOD was in the mix!”
My church watched and discussed this powerful documentary last night (on Juneteenth). Thank you for helping to educate and inspire us.
May His name be glorified! ☝
😮@@ourdailybread
This video is stunning because most people fail to understand how legacy of slavery. continues to affect us up to this day. For example, there was another study that identified a "trauma" gene in African Americans today. To his point, my DNA stated that my ancestors were kidnapped from Ghana and Nigeria (85%) and European (15%).
💗💔💗
Today On Juneteenth I Watched The Documentary Of Galveston Texas, It Was Very Inspiring To View, Our African American History, It Gives Us Praise & Uplifting Going Thru Years Of Slavery & Bondage To Freedom. Our Songs "Wave In The Water " & " Lord I Call On You " They Were Songs Of HOPE ; With Many Shoulders Whom Cared ... For All To Move Forward !! " Centuries Of Years Later 🙏 We Celebrate Our Day Juneteenth With Faith In Jubilation & Freedom & Liberation With Freedom For All A World Of Triumph In Victory! 🙌❤🙏 Thank You Our Daily Bread For This Awesome Historical Video Amen
I cried tears of joy after watching this documentary.🙏Have a Happy Juneteenth.God Bless 🙏❤️
Blessings to you as well, @LeonoraCAdams.
What a powerful documentary 👏🏻
Thank you, Matthew.
Happy Juneteenth and thanks so much for this incredible documentary and thanks so much to our ancestors for everything they went through to pave the way so that we could have the freedom we have today.
Happy Juneteenth to you as well!
I'll never forget this documentary. I'm still sitting here in tears.
I am for freedom being celebrated From June 19th to July 4th for all.
🎉🎈
Interesting. All for it.
Right on 👍
Let’s keep moving positively FORWARD, Backward NEVER 🙏🏽🌟☮️🤠✅❣️✅
@@juanitab.hancock-dickey2961
Exactly
Juneteenth 1865 applied to Texas, it did not end slavery in the USA, slavery was still legal in several border states
It I important to tell the whole truth not just the white man's version
This was an incredible documentary I’m so glad I chose to learn more about Juneteenth today and finding this video. My heart hurts for all of the souls who endured the horrors of slavery, Jim Crow and even the way it affects us today.
My heart is full of hope, love, and admiration for those who dedicate their lives and energy to fighting against oppression. Thank you creating this documentary!❤ happy Juneteenth!!!
Happy Juneteenth!
Solid Documentry, Amazing soundtrack!
Thanks to Jesus Christ we all have Freedom!
Amen! All through Him!
Never forget the stories shared by our grandparents 😢 " Know thyself" Seek the true history of this country and "never forget"❤❤❤ Seek truth, Speak truth and be a person of integrity. God has set us free. The freedoms we have today cost our Ancestors.
This was great. Thank you.
I live in Houston by way of Louisiana and really appreciated this knowledge and seeing that it stems from Our Daily Bread was topping on the cake.
What did Lisa say..."Black people preserved Christianity for America. We kept the message of the Gospel alive..." What truth lay in that statement. Antioch Church when you look at it and realize its beginnings and the Reedy Chapel AME church in Galveston since 1848 ... God had a plan. His hand is still at work.
Amen, @13thdisciple! Thanks for joining us!
🎉 by
Just what I was looking for. My understanding of Juneteenth and our history has been increased and I will continue to gain knowledge and do my part to insure we have equality in every area.
This was a great history lesson and very monumental to melanated history
Thank you for your positive feedback, Dennyne0712!
Thank you so much for this very hard to embrace documentary. I’m so proud to be in the color my skin. Thank You Heavenly Father for those who fought for our freedom then and now.💐🌹👏🏾🎉 To God be the glory, honor, power, and all praise! He deserves the glory! 🙌🏾 When it’s all over, we will see our Heavenly Father face to face, And He will Restore us to our rightful place in heaven on earth in Jesus’ mighty name, Amen! 🙌🏾
All glory and honor to Him!
I was educating myself on this for understanding what Juneteenth actually means. All the videos I came across were simple but empty. This was so beautifully done. I shared it with my fb family and others. I am motivated further to conduct my Juneteenth photoshoot with better understanding. Thank you!!
You're welcome, Victor! Thank you for watching and sharing with friends!
This was such an impactful film - Really poignant and informative, beautifully done. There is more work to be done, and true history, no matter how ugly, needs to be taught.
Sayyyyy that
You can say that again!
Thank you, Bri V! Let's continue the work for His glory!
Amen. Oh yes. Absolutely. History must be taught. Truthfully and with an eye to justice. Especially now, in this country. I hope lots and lots of students get to see this powerful, inspiring video.
Excellent Documentary and very balanced. Kudos to Rasool (Messenger in Arabic) in his presentation and clear deliverance. I pray it reaches as many Americans as possible to understand this rich American history. 💯 #biblemark12_29
T L Muhammad, thank you for watching and praying with us!
Great job on this documentary. I was truly blessed by it. Keep up the great work 👏👏🙌🙌
Thank you, Kingdom Huddle! We appreciate your encouragement!
This was so beautifully made. A lotta corporatized pieces of media on Juneteenth and Black History fail to do what this does: humanize it. I've learned so much from this and it's had such a profound impact on me. I was aware of what happened to Black Wall Street, aware of Jim Crow, Red lining, but not Freedman's Town, Birth of a Nation, or Jack Yates, and so much more this documentary shined light upon. There was a lot here that made my stomach churn, it made me sick to see, to hear. But it needs to be shown, it needs to be heard. It's ugly history, but it's our nation's history, and if we hope to fix disparities of wealth, housing, education, employment, and opportunity, we have to recognize our nation's past to improve it's future.
Thank you for putting this together, and to everyone who worked on it.
@Sadia_Moon thank you for sharing your heart and thoughts with us. We're glad this video was a blessing to you. 💜
I am beyond appreciative of this documentary. Beautifully done, passionately presented. The awareness and knowledge that it has given me is so impactful. I've shared it with anyone who will listen. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Marci, it warms our hearts to hear this! Thank you for watching and sharing with others.
Thank you. I have already been enjoying your African American devotional booklets, especially the HBCU one. May our Lord richly bless this newest venture.
Thank you, @microfta!
Biblical judgement means making distinctions between right and wrong. The Bible says judgement begins in the House of God (1 Peter 4:17). Thanking God for ODB & Pastor Rasool Berry sharing this piercing history from an uncompromisingly Biblical perspective. This is one of the responsibilities of the Church. Well done!
Thank you, @gospelgriot8464!
I’m watching this documentary for the second year in a row. It’s splendid. Also, I heard on the Jude 3 Project podcast about the expedient production process. Knowing this detail and seeing the finished product proves this project is truly God-ordained. Happy Juneteenth and God bless everyone who had a hand in this documentary!
@izzyfaith6.8, thank you for watching with us again! We give Him all the glory and praise for this project! 🙌
I think it's time to know about spiritual oppression our father and mother endure , there faith in God brought them out.
Very Thankful you have done this documentary. Very well done and may you know Christ is pleased. This massive ugly sin of the United States must be told that we may repent and look to God to reconcile us not only to Him but to one another.
💗🛐
Woooow! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 i don’t have words to describe what this work means to me and what means to our history!!! Thank you for sharing this documentary to the world!!!!
Thank you for watching the film!
Thankful we can Say. Thank you
The potential of our human capacity for the cruelty generated thru fear and ignorance does not flicker against the burning flame of our compassion and humility
Such a Gift of American History, for Every American, on this Juneteenth 2023, the History none of us learned in school. This Documentary needs to be shown in every School in Our Nation, Now. Thank you, deeply moving and Beautiful in it’s message of Strength, True Freedom and Hope. Keep The Faith.
Amen! Keep the faith!
Thank you! May God continue this good work he has given you. This message has confirmed I should keep going. In Jesus Name! Amen!!!
Thank you, @marysmall2818! Keep going in Him!
God was and still is in the mist of everything. God inspired Abraham Lincoln to start a war in order to free the slaves,God was always near our ancestors because the were a praying people. God will bring justice to us when he comes the second time
To God Be The Glory. I am a proud American Descendant of Slavery!!!
Wow what an awesome story to uplift and free 👏🏾.
All glory to the Lord!
This is a wonderful documentary about Juneteenth!
We're so glad you enjoyed it!

I love how the interviewer allows the interviewees to tell it from their prospective, although he (as we all) may have some prejudgments…Those prejudgments aren’t getting in the way of this beautiful story ❤️

This documentary will become a part of my assignments for my Doctoral Students in the Preaching and Leadership Development in the 21st Century Doctoral Cohort at United Theological Seminary in Dayton, OH. We will definitely discuss this. -Dr Lee E. Fields, Jr.
Very informative. Thank you so much. Great eye opener for me.
We're grateful for your feedback, marie.
This is a masterpiece. Thank you making this blessing and growth to all involved. #Juneteenth
It's an amazing journey our black people journey to freedom! the up and down of lifetime struggle to be respected as a human being. On one side, oppressors had a goal to control our life, on the other side, our persistence to resist all their mischief, cruelty, heinous crime against humanity and surpass that through our belief and endurance!!
That was well said and educational, we still have a ways to go but glory be to God what we have Accomplished 🙏🏽
Thank you for your encouraging words!
Amen! Just beautiful. Great job filmmakers!!!!
Thank you for your kind words, C V!
Lo

@conchitabradley3911, thank you for watching with us!
I got chills when they were describing the black soldiers coming off the ships to liberate the black people in Galveston. I can't imagine what that moment must have felt like!
Great Documentary,
Powerful!
Inspite of biblical distortions, they (ancestors) continued in faith, giving GOD the glory.
Blessings🙏🏾

Thank you
Happy juneteenth
🎉💜
Amazing documentary. I enjoyed learning about our ancestors and our history.
We're glad you enjoyed it, @cataleyaschannel6819!
I am a 61 year old white women. I really cannot imagine. It is absolutely despicable. I still cannot believe this was ok with any human to treat people worse then a animal. I was very sheltered as a child. My father had black friends to our home from a young age. But our shcools, little town, and our church where all white. When the show Roots came out I was appalled. The holiday Juneteenth is way overdue. How people put money and greed before life and respect for others in just sickening.🎉
This is phenomenal. Deepest gratitude to all the participants and those who made this film possible. Thank you.
Thank you Daily Bread Media!!
You're welcome, @eddiemoser3623!
Beautiful. So informative. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

Thank you.
This was amazing and very informative. I feel even more empowered.
We are delighted to hear this, @latialee779!
All facts especially about the dangers of processing the sugar. They would find many dead on the fields and in the ‘work houses’ this was the same in Jamaica.
😞💔
Beautifully done. ❤
This my first time hearing or seeing tjis documentary. It is awesome. It's well researched and documented. The narratives are beautifully woven together to help give us a complete and clear understanding of the celebration called Juneteenth and the triumphs of the newly Emancipated black folks who are our powerful ancestors today. Thanks a Million times ❤.
