"Racism in America is like dust in the air. It seems invisible — even if you’re choking on it — until you let the sun in,” writes Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. “As long as we keep shining that light, we have a chance of cleaning it wherever it lands.”
This week, Betty Joynes and Lori Chewkanes, Members of HOPE's Lead Team and HOPE's Racial Justice Team, join with Pastor Rick Court in a conversation about the sin of racism. We talk about how we can recognize it in ourselves and in our world, and what we can do to actively pursue being anti-racists with our lives. This episode is part 1 of 2 so make sure to check back in next week to hear the second part of this conversation.
