"It is our conviction that a person's willingness to accept the Negro as fully equal to the white both as a citizen and as a Christian is the acid test of his Americanism and his Christianity."

People in white bodies must wrestle
with the ideas of racism & white supremacy.

Our mutual liberation is connected.

Pay attention. Concentration camps are being built right now.

It was powerful for me too!
