NAAF “has released a statement addressing recent statements from the SBC Council of Seminary Presidents. It’s an important statement, that will merit response from the SBC seminary presidents, and consideration of SBC leaders.” - C.Today

Rejecting CRT does not mean you reject that there is racism in the SBC and America, and systematic racism as well. IT means you believe CRT is a terribly flawed perspective based on 20th century Marxist, neo-Marxist, and socialist sociological theories.

NewDisappearing nuance

Fri, 03/26/21

Agree!

It’s that disappearing nuance thing again… or disappearing middle. It’s all over in public discourse, these days. We don’t have to be all-in for CRT or all-in for racism denial.

Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
