"I'm so black Christian"
One of my friends on Facebook shared this video, which attempts to reconcile faith with socio-economic struggle and racism. I think this is especially appropriate right now with our reading on Pentecostalism being connected to African tradition. I think it is interesting all of the applause from the audience, showing the community present within the tradition, whereas I, a white Christian, miss many of the references. For once, I feel out of the loop and like an outsider.
