He is the Senior Pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, IL which was the home church of President Barack and Michelle Obama. He has won multiple awards for his short film Otis' Dream about his grandfather's fight to vote in the United States. His parents were on the front line of the Civil Rights Movement, and he has been at the forefront of the fight for justice and civil rights in the 21st century. He calls himself a blues man committed to uniting love and justice in the tradition of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
