What Would Jesus Buy? (2007)

Activist Cinema Episode 6 - What Would Jesus Buy? (2007) is a documentary that follows Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping on their North American tour in the month leading up to Christmas 2005.  As we head into the capitalist orgy of Black Friday and the holiday shopping season, this film works as a great antidote to the consumer frenzy that is about to be unleashed.  Also, it is available free on YouTube (as of this posting).  Rev. Billy and Nehemiah are both currently (11.24.13) facing a year in prison.  Please follow this link to sign a petition for their charges to be dropped. [Click to Listen]
