Buy Nothing Day... or What Would Jesus Buy?!

Hopefully, you have resisted the urge to get to a store at 4am. It's sad that even retailers have embraced the name of Black Friday in their advertising.  Instead of participating in Black Friday, participate in Buy Nothing Day, and watch a trailer for What Would Jesus Buy, one of the best documentaries of the decade.

Follow Reverend Billy and his Church of Stop Shopping Choir as they take on rampant consumer debt, chain stores, and labor practices. Humor with an important message.  It wowed the sold-out crowd at it's SXSW premiere this year, and Reverence Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping literally rocked the house with a live performance. 

CNN did a little story about the film in an article entitled, What 'What would Jesus buy?' film asks, which reviews WWJB as well as discusses the Buy Nothing Day movement.

The trailer for WWJB is available on YouTube:

Watch Reverend Billy take on Christmas insanity with guerilla street (and mall!) performances
