(CNN)Three men, eyes closed and heads bowed, pray before a rough-hewn wooden cross. Another man wraps his arms around a massive Bible pressed against his chest like a shield. All throughout the crowd, people wave "Jesus Saves" banners and pump their fists toward the sky.
My Two Cents
The Insurrection |
And from the get-go, the white Christian nationalist movement has always served as the foundation for white supremacy. Slavery was justified as a biblical mandate – the curse on Ham’s son Canaan. The genocide of Native Americans and theft of their land was Manifest Destiny.
In plain terms, the will of God.
Furthermore, the movement’s hysterical reaction to Critical Race Theory signals they want to advocate for and promote white superiority with no accountability.
They don't want us to be awakened/aware of what they have done; are doing; and will do. Why? Once again: This is the will of God, thus their birthright.
The moral compass for this movement has always steered to white domination while asserting their position as the upper caste.
The challenge for We the People in this environment is to continue to establish a more perfect union. We have to vote vote vote & lobby lobby lobby – on all levels of government. Our inactivity only hastens our defeat to tyranny. And the past will be prologue.
