Racist Sharpton Claims the 'White Church' Is 'Sinning' for Not Teaching Critical Race Theory | Newsbusters
Asserting that American democracy has not yet been “realized,” he labeled white Americans as “the problem” and that they must collectively atone for seemingly their existence and the sins of distant ancestors (who actually did engage in slavery and enact measures such as Jim Crow laws):
Their churches have not interrupted it, the myth of white supremacy, the myth of white settler colonialism. Their politicians by and large have not interrupted it...We are not the problem. The problem is white supremacy and what it does to human beings, what it does to communities, what it does to people black and white and so what we need is a concerted effort from within the white community to turn the page on this narrative, to say that this truly will be a democracy that is multicultural, multi-faith, multiethnic and really for me, democracy in America is aspirational. It has not yet been realized because of what we saw Saturday and because of what we continue to see in our policies at the federal level, at the state and local level as well.
A perfect far-left activist, Lamar went onto demand that critical race theory become embedded in church teaching because the Bible ostensibly is an insufficient roadmap for growing God's kingdom and preaching that we're all made in His image:
Critical race theory says we will read America through the lens of our experience as a people, we will call out where race has shaped law, economics, politics...[Y]ou have no capitalism without enslavement, that those things are linked together, they are unraveling the myth and telling the story from our perspective and essentially what those six seminary presidents are saying is we refuse to see history, economics, and politics from anyone's perspective other than our own white perspective.
Sharpton and Lamar then nastily attacked white seminary leaders for not integrating critical race theory into their curriculums and Sharpton even claimed that “they’re sinning” for not doing so (click “expand”):
LAMAR: [I]f you go to their church, they will lambaste you about your individual sin but they have no reason or no desire to recollect the sins that gave us what we now have. So they want personal repentance, but they do not want corporate repentance, political repentance .....
