Rev. Al Sharpton returned to Howard University’s campus to deliver impassioned remarks on “fighting giants” during the Andrew Rankin Memorial Chapel’s “Call to Chapel.” 

Rev. Sharpton advised the audience to stand up to their “personal giants,” as well as those “societal giants” confronting our daily lives.

He used the Biblical story of David facing Goliath to underscore the importance of facing giants of all magnitudes. 

“If we’re afraid to stand up then we are not deserving of those that [previously] stood up and gave their lives so that we could build a better life than they did,” Rev. Sharpton said.

Rev. Sharpton informed the audience of the March on Wall Street event, which took place on Thursday, and was organized by the National Action Network, the organization that Rev. Sharpton founded in 1991.

NAN’s aim is to hold Wall Street “accountable for perpetuating inequality and demand financial reforms that benefit everyone, regardless of background.” Howard students attended the march, led by Tabia J. Lee, president of the university’s NAN chapter.
