I will continue to post about our deep-seated racism as the story unfolds from Buffalo, NY. For us as whites, I am still stunned when a motive is made clear, I still have friends who say, “Well, it will be interesting to get the whole story.” So… I will still keep at this.

More on the ugliness of Christian Nationalism
How in the world can you come to a place of despising Tim Keller? Keller pastored Redeemer Presbyterian in New York for decades.
