Let's revisit :ohlawd:


When it came to treating her citizens of African descent fairly, America failed. She put them in chains, the government put them on slave quarters, put them on auction blocks, put them in cotton field, put them in inferior schools, put them in substandard housing, put them in scientific experiments, put them in the lowest paying jobs, put them outside the equal protection of the law, kept them out of their racist bastions of higher education and locked them into positions of hopelessness and helplessness. The government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing "God Bless America". No, no, no, not God Bless America. God damn America — that's in the Bible — for killing innocent people. God damn America, for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America, as long as she tries to act like she is God, and she is supreme. The United States government has failed the vast majority of her citizens of African descent

whats it about?

The book was written by James Cone, the guy who trained Dr. Jeremiah Wright in black liberation theology. When I read this book my perspective on Christianity changed forever..it basically unpacks the white supremacist point of view of Jesus and relate him to the black experience using history in the times of Jesus and racism in America

I was just thinking about this shyt the other day. I feel like the Jeremiah Wright shyt was a social experiment. We all know he was telling the truth, and even cacs know he was telling the truth. However, we (me included at the time) pretended that he was wrong.
