Rev. Otis Moss III is a pastor at the Trinity United Church Of Christ in Chicago, of which presidential candidate Barack Obama is a member. Moss replaced the controversial Rev. Jeremiah Wright, whose politically-charged sermons have become a major issue in the Democratic primary campaign and inspired Obama's March address on the subject of race. In his Easter Sunday sermon, titled “How to Handle a Public Lynching," Moss defended Wright's comments and compared his treatment in the media to a public execution.

But God made us who we are and we celebrate what God made us and being African Americans. We’re Africans who’ve been displaced and who live in America." -Otis Moss III30 Good Minutes: Otis Moss III, "The People Who Could Fly" -
