The Way (Paperback, 1977, Our Sunday Visitor) No rating

Chicanos, blacks and whites ... they all met together in a special forum in Bakersfield, Calif., to discuss minority groups. Their conclusion: each has developed its own proud identity, but whites, including Christian students, are still prejudiced. As a result, some barriers are tougher to crack than ever. All the rhetoric about equality and acceptance needs to be translated into action.

The Way (Page 1,058)

This was commentary in the 1970s and it may actually be worse now 50 years later. Growing up in the 90s I recall only anti-racism in Christian circles (though that may have been a regional thing, or a youth who didn't recognize). But in the 2020s I see many proclaiming to be Christian, while also proclaiming some of the most hateful things imagined. God heal your church.
