Thank you for your thoughtful response. I am a big fan of Kendi’s work and appreciate his nuanced and layered insights about being antiracist. As a person of faith, I so appreciate that you have rooted your understanding of the image of God. I also never use the n-word but I understand that for many it is empowering and takes the sting out it and milks its intensity.
It just demonstrates the complexities of the racial dynamics. Yet simple, when framed from one’s core identity as a human relating to another’s core identity. Thanks again.
