White men who said one thing then did another...

Equal protection under law for Black Americans hasn’t improved measurably since the 1990s, when White American evangelical men crowded by the tens of thousands into sports venues across the country, and promised to stand by Black and Brown men and their families.

So… where are those White American evangelical men now?

Where are they in this election season when racial justice is absolutely on the ballot from top to bottom?

With a clear opportunity to get it right this time, where are the Promise Keepers?

Now You Go | Unearned Privilege + Just Responsibility

As the week ends, I want to say that I’m moved by what people posted the first few days at Now You Go.

They … we … are trying to acknowledge the unearned privilege and just responsibilities that come with waking up white in America.

Maybe you know one of these folks.
Maybe you’d like to read their words or watch their video and say Thanks for speaking up.
Maybe you’d like to add your voice too.
