“… We live in a time when our brothers have been so put down, can’t get a job, lot of the sisters making more money than brothers. And it’s creating problems in families. That’s one of the reasons our families’ breaking up. And that’s one of the reasons many of our women are becoming lesbians. You got to be careful when you say you don’t need no man. I can make it by myself. Well, if you don’t need a man, what’s left? Lesbianism is about to take over our community. I’m talking about young girls. My son in high school last year, trying to go to the prom, he said, ‘Dad, I ain’t got nobody to take to the prom because all the girls in my class are gay. There ain’t but two of them straight and both of them are ugly. I ain’t got nobody to take to the prom.’Preach on Brotha!
I ain’t homophobic because everybody here got something wrong with him," he said. "But … women falling down on another woman, strapping yourself up with something, it ain’t real. That thing ain’t got no feeling in it."Praise Jebus!
"You can’t make a connection with two screws. It takes a screw and a nut! (shouting)."Dat be da trut!
See now, I was completely mixed up about urban issues. I thought economic and educational problems were leading to the breakdown of black families. I had no idea it was the lesbians.
I would have thought that it might be pastors speaking in ebonics that were causing problems for young blacks trying to become doctors, or lawyers, or engineers. Nope.. it's two womens being all un-natural wit each other.
I thought that maybe it was a climate that values rap stars and basketball players, instead of teachers and scientists. Nope - the problem is that Delronshanonatwanadeon can't get a date foh da prom.
Gorak has reserved a special place in Heaven for the reverend and parishioners of Temple Baptist Church in Southeast D.C. It's the spiritual equivalent of where the kids on the short yellow bus end up.
The congregation can be heard shouting its approval in the background during Wilson’s sermon.
