SD African-Americans Take Strong Stand for Cross

May 25, 2006 

One day after the San Diego City Council voted to appeal a judge's ruling to remove the controversial cross atop Mount Soledad, African-American church leaders added their voices to the campaign to keep the towering touchstone of Christianity, according to the San Diego Union-Tribune.

The Rev. Marshall Sharpe of Phillips Temple Christian Methodist Episcopal Church in Emerald Hills said, "This is bigger than just about a symbol because it's about Jesus.”
 

“Though it's public land, it's still God's land,” Sharpe told dozens of preachers and supporters at Bayview Baptist Church in Encanto, according to the Union-Tribune.
