This three year old video has been going viral on Instagram, YouTube, and now Twitter because it shows an elderly black man who was invited on to a reality YouTube show and paired up with a drag queen to dance.

His refusal to participate in the dance and to stand up for his beliefs is inspiring a lot of people:

As soon as Isaac turns around and sees the dude in the dress next to him he immediately responded with a real conviction:

Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I can't do this. I can't do it. I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'm a man of God, I can't do this.

He wasn't ugly, he wasn't rude, he had just been set up to dance with someone in drag and he decided in that moment that it wasn't right.

The interview afterward is where his light really shines:

I love those people. I will pray for them. I would never do anything to hurt 'em or condemn 'em. But men are not supposed to dress like women.

I'm not gonna go along with that! It's time to stand up and be a man of God!

Isaac understands the moment we're in and he is completely correct.

It's time to stand up and be a man of God!
