Challenging White Supremacy in Christian Art
Challenging White supremacy is something we must do at all times and in many different ways. The thing is – White supremacy is so prevalent that we are always presented with opportunities for challenging the power structure. #ThanksBeToGod On the side, Fr. Cayce is a photographer… If he were Black, I guess that’d be his “side hustle.” But as a White man, it’s just his hobby!

Redemption & Humility: Two Sides of Racial Reconciliation
What has Racial Heresy been up to?! We’ve been hard at work praying, thinking, arguing, and PUSHING the BOUNDARIES of racial reconciliation to explore redemption & humility – What White and Black folks need before we can be reconciled… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ucOXd2LJecQ White Supremacy works to keep White folks deluded into thinking they are above their sisters and brothers. White Supremacy works to keep Black folks confined to a position of inferiority. How then can we reconcile? “...
