One of the more heartbreaking things we’re witnessing in the current unrest is the inclination to silence certain aspects of the discussion on race and healing. The “silence is violence” crowd is ironically the worst offender, immediately stepping in to silence voices and points of view that don’t begin and end with getting white Americans out of the way and defunding the police. //

Defeating White supremacy without White people creates Black supremacy. Equality is the truth.

Like it or not, we are all in this together. //

Crews has always been vocal about his belief that the forgiveness and healing offered by God to all who ask is really the only thing that can keep us from destroying ourselves. He believes in equality as laid out in the Good Book – that all of us are created by a loving God who so desperately treasures each and every one of us that He did not rule man but became man. He made himself equal to us even though surely not one of us deserves to share the same status as Creator of the universe. As we say in the church…

But God…

But God… //

True equality requires that we all follow the example of our Lord…that we become each other. We can’t trade one type of superiority for another, and if anyone thinks that minority Americans are immune to feeling superior just because we don’t occupy the position of the majority they’re fooling themselves about human nature.

I loved what Crews expressed here. It doesn’t seem to be unreasonable in the least. We can’t erase white people from the equation of racial healing. That makes no sense. We all live in this country together. No one is leaving so get used to it. If we don’t tackle this problem together we will fall together.
