The Cross & the Lynching Tree

I don't think this is a racists theology.  It was under this same theology that my people and native people were racially subjugated by. No other native cultures on the earth went around the world taking peoples land and trying to erase their cultures under the guise of GOD. Thats why I an african in america has a european name and so are millions of other native people in south america,australia,africa, and the many countless other places are walking around with EUROPEAN name.Fact not fiction

relocate people forcibly to other lands where they subjugated a people to hundreds of yours of brutality. Respectfully

[bigrootz]

many native people are living testimonies of these same great atrocities done to them all over this world. The jews don't catch flack for their unwavering remembrance of their holocaust. Please don't try to lessen the value of the experience. It is not meant to cause you guilt for this experience . It is a truth that has happened and you can't understand the mental,psychological and long term damages that it has played on my people. We didn't board ships take other peoples lands or relocate

@Crobarus. I don't think it is a blame game but, we as africans in america are a testimonial of a great horrible event that happened for hundreds of years . African People in the diaspora where enslaved and their culture and everything about them erased and beaten and killed out of them. My name is not a reflection of who I am or where my ancestors come from. When people trace their origins from their family name , I cannot do that. It is not just african people who can testify to this

[crobarus]

That was a horrible time in this country . Thank God none of my ansestors were involved in anything like that. In fact some of my ancestors may have been raped or enslaved or tortured by the Moors when they invaded Sicaly. However I don't hold any people of African decent responsible today. People of all colors have done horrific things to other people since the beginning of time. We need to stop blaming an entire race for past history. I'm white and I feel no guilt for slavery or lyncings

Not only is this heretical theology, it is racist theology.

It is not possible, historically or logically, that a white Jesus, who is th image and symbol of/for the oppressor, would die for black people. The white Jesus as presented by the oppressaor is an imposter, a fake, a fraud. That is not the Jesus Christ of Nazareth, that died for the sins of the world.
