28: P&P: On Whiteness

2021-03-1949:29

We discuss the ideology of whiteness and its implications. Whiteness is real. It’s powerful. And it’s destructive. We have to face it and we have to reject it.
We discuss an intriguing idea from Peter Rollins and how it intersects with the emerging consensus around the stages of faith.
We have now lost over 500,000 lives to COVID-19 in the United States. We ruminate on how the United States and the world has coped with this pandemic and all that it has revealed. Finally, we think about what Lent might have to say about the human condition in this time of profound loss.
Republicans put party over country, again, and they did so with the support of the majority of white Christians. When will we see the Republican party for what it is and white Christianity for what it is? We can do better, and we must.
If we can’t start speaking the truths that we know, then we are in serious trouble. Things have to change or things have to die.
We discuss our thoughts and feelings on the inauguration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
It’s time to tell the truth about White Christianity in America and about the  Republican Party. We offer our analysis with as much clarity and courage as we can.
