Plot

This inspirational saga follows the life of controversial pastor Vernon Johns - now known as the father of the civil rights movement.

Vernon Johns, a brilliant man coupled with an eloquent speaker, upsets his community through his radical ideas on social change and economic independence of blacks. From his pulpit, he attacks the white power and denounces police brutality towards his brother race. His biggest enemy is nonetheless his own congregation who hesitates to mobilize behind him.—markyoloup
