The event, entitled "One Thousand Ministers March for Justice," was scheduled on the 54th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s March on Washington and his "I Have a Dream" speech. Over 3,000 ministers representing a range of faiths registered to join the march from the MLK, Jr. Memorial to the Department of Justice, according to Politico.
The march was spearheaded by Sharpton, who also made political remarks that addressed what he called "immoral" actions happening in the United States.
"We wanted 1,000 rabbis, Sikhs, imams, Christian ministers of all denominations because we wanted to say this nation is in moral trouble," Sharpton said in a speech to the marchers.
"It's immoral to try to take the vote from people that blacks and Jews and other people suffered and died for," he added. "It's immoral to try and take health care from your mama because you don't like Obama. It's immoral to try and give a tax cut to the rich while we need infrastructure and jobs."

Deport HIM to help America !!!!
Joe
Please tell me why shapton hasn't been arrested for tax evasion ?
This nation has been in moral trouble long before Trump took office. You know these preachers and pastors know that. Shame on them to protest and blame Trump.
What a clown! Nobody takes him seriously!
It's immoral that anyone who has committed as many crimes as Sharpton has is running around free.
Still can't wrap my head around him owing so much in taxes and still walking around and living rich and large! At this point one can not help but to wonder if it is a racial/status thing.
He AL, no one is listening to your sorry jive butt! There are more important issues going on than your beatin a dead horse about what you think you should get.
Move along there 1 trick - your time with the national limelight is over.
By the way something - when you going to pay those back taxes you OWE?
Why is he not in prison for his millions in unpaid taxes?
Nothing reverend about him. Parasite.
Make him pay his taxes!!
What? Didn't Sharpton procclaimed not long ago, if Trump was elected, he would be moving to Canada? So, whats up with "marching" in D.C. ? Oh, just another BS from Con-Artist and Tax Evader. I guess he realized nobody up there would care about his loud mouth. Arrest this Clown who calls himself "a Reverand", Please.
I believe Chicago needs you more.
With people like that leading the march, yes America is indeed in trouble!
Charlatan on steroids.
Sharpton is as loony as they get.
Two thoughts pay your taxes and leave this country as you promised prior to the election.
He's not looney. He is smart enough to have plenty of money without having a job or paying taxes on it. It's the dumb --- people who keep supporting him and sending him money that are dumb
I encourage you to stop mandating that a person be DEPORTED or ask them to MOVE TO RUSSIA when the person has an opinion which differs from your opinion.
It looks desperate and a bit petty.
It is also quite un-American of you sir.
Thank you
3:56 PM - Thank you. The people who call for deportation of American citizens don't have a good grip on the law.
Mr Obama put him up to it. Anything to disrupt. Not a true American.
He needs to give Maxine Waters her wig back
Looks like he thinks he is JAMES BROWN !!!
ha, love it
Need new Laws so Citizenship can be Taken away for those
who need to be DEPORTED when necessary .....work a deal
with Russia or China to take them ........save alot of
Prison costs here in USA .........
Plenty of room there.........
A Good DETERANT since prison here is a joke and does Not
Deter crime for the bad apples here .....they only Repeat it
TIME is only punishment here .....WOOOOOO !!!! a Joke
Trump should have him arrested.
Yes, this morally troubled nation produced al sharpless & others like him.
Racist and Criminals like him LOVE this country !!!
What better place on Earth to get away with so much and
Nothing is done to You ??????? Only in America
He is lecturing white people on morals???
Has he looked at the state of his people lately?
Drop outs exceed grad rates in many schools. a LARGE percentage of their males are going to prison or jail, IN prison or jail, or just GOT OUT of prison or jail. They need a few days to impregnate ANOTHER baby momma, to the point that most of their children are raised by single mothers and the men are too busy with OTHER mommas to pay child support or see their own kid. Then it's back to jail.
Black people, 150 YEARS after their great-great-great-great grandfather MAY (not likely though) have been a slave, STILL need the white people to give them houses, money, and watch their kids because they just can't do anything on their own. It's just too hard, man.
And the "leaders" they choose don't say anything about WORKING, marrying ONE of the mothers of your 5 kids, staying out of trouble, or doing well in school.
Oh no.
It's WHITE PEOPLE that impregnated the 15 year old (her SECOND child). It's racism that forced them to shoot their rival crack dealer. It's white privilege that stops them from opening a math book. It's white cops that made them rob a bank. And it's some scary statues that have ruined their lives forever. And of course, the KKK is outside of all of their apartments, just waiting to lynch someone.
It's NEVER themselves.
They need different leaders.
I have two words for this walking talking jizz stain "Tawanna Brawley."
Obviously Roundup doesn't work. Why do these weeds like Rosie O'Donnell, Chelsea Clinton , Whoopi Goldberg, Al Sharpton, Jessie Jackson keeping popping up? Oh and how could I forget the worst dandelion of all, Joy Behar.
The blind leading the blind. So will be noted of any pastor who responds to this deceiver of the truth.
His "Ministers" are " Sinisters "
Apparently, anyone can call themselves a " Minister "
The DEVIL'S Minister !!!
