We MUST, as white American Christians, lean in and listen

This article in Christianity Today demonstrates the wide disparity held between white and black American Christians regarding policing.

“Do police officers generally treat black and white Americans alike?

White evangelicals are more likely to say ‘yes’ than any other major religious demographic in the United States. Black Protestants are most likely to disagree.”

Even after a long string of black men and women killed by police, we’re still not listening. Let us give up our pride and our self-assuredness to take up a position to hear our black brothers and sisters.
