Doesn’t Look a Thing Like Jesus

A discussion of racism, white supremacy and the depiction of Christ in America's churches

Episode Notes

Recently, Shaun King, writer and activist , made this unusual proposition:

“Yes, I think the statues of the white European they claim is Jesus should also come down. They are a form of white supremacy. Always have been… They are a gross form [of] white supremacy. Created as tools of oppression. Racist propaganda. They should all come down.”

This idea has gotten the kind of reception you would expect. Shaun King has been threatened, and his idea, ironically, has been labeled as racist. So in today’s episode we will explore racism, white supremacy and the depiction of Christ in our churches.
