First-Ever Video Of Rev. Wright’s ‘Audacity To Hope’ Sermon

From the Blaze:

  • This is first video to be released, to TheBlaze’s knowledge, of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright’s “Audacity to Hope” sermon
  • Delivered numerous times with varying degrees of political imagery, this is the homily (at least a version of it) that President Barack Obama claims brought him to Christianity 
  • In the sermon, Wright accuses Chicago of being a city that “hates blacks,” while seemingly praising Malcolm X in front of a mostly-white audience 
  • Other versions of the speech range from apolitical to overtly controversial in their inclusion of racial and political themes
