When we think of white supremacy, we often think of appalling images of hooded people and burning crosses. But as Daniel Hill points out, white supremacy is an ideology that infiltrates more aspects of our lives than we even realize. Even our church lives.
"...At its heart, white supremacy is spiritual because its defining human beings."
White supremacy is a lie from the enemy, because only God gets to define humans and He has done just that by creating us in His image.

joined me to talk about his new book White Lies and it was powerful!
White supremacy as an ideology has played an unfortunate role in the Church in America and we as believers have allowed it to continue on our watch for far too long. True, not everyone is intentionally promoting white supremacy, but many of us have certainly been complicit in its spread.
Daniel tells a bit of his awakening story (more of that in his first book White Awake) and how he now talks to others, in the Church and outside of it, about racism and white supremacy – how to recognize them and actively fight against them.
