The Failure Of Christianity To End White Supremacy

There is something terribly wrong, and it has been wrong for a very long time.

In my growing up, I was taught about God – the Christian God who sent his son Jesus to be the Christ. This Christ brought and taught “the Good News,” which, I was taught, meant that all people had worth. This God sent his son to mix and mingle with all whom the dominant society shunned. Because of Jesus the Christ, his life, death and resurrection, the Good News became eternal. I was taught that because of the life of Jesus the Christ that there was “plenty good room” for all whom God had created.
