It’s harder to see honestly in the distance when we’ve had such a culture
of blindness up close. When it comes to love and justice, a people who run
from it in their own home are not going to be well-equipped to perceive it
in some far off country. The church culture most of us come from has been
very slow to recognize its complicity in racial oppression in America… so
it would stand to reason that the same culture is not coming to grips with
its complicity in distant lands either. But there’s hope… It’s just going
to take a lot more than just Christians or just non-Christians to move
forward as humanity in any meaningful sense.
