Important read submitted by pk on June 30, 2021, 11:04am This book is a systematic look at Christian churches in the USA, particularly the Southern Baptists, but many many others in both the north and the south. It points out how racism and white supremacy infiltrated christian institutions long ago. And points out that many things that seem "normal" were actually introduced to maintain a "whites only" environment in churches. Very interesting. Lots of research and facts to back things up. Worth your time.
