Troy Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 The following quote is from a discussion of Freshwater by Akwaeke Emezi on the Black Syllabus: "Consider that lack of connection with spirits/gods is a result of white supremacy and colonialism; the belief that (certain) humans are superior, and what we produce on this earth for our consumption is all that matters/is all that is real." This struck me because the people who have done the most vile things on Earth pray to a God and believe in an after life -- or at least they say they do. Indeed white racism and Christianity go hand in hand. Maybe I'll read this book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
