What Conservatives Don’t Understand About the Black Community
The Daily Signal ^ | July 30, 2021 | Raynard Jackson

As a graduate of Oral Roberts University, I was blessed to spend a lot of time with Oral Roberts himself.

Roberts repeatedly told me, “Go into every man’s world and meet them at the point of their need.”

He was referring to Christians evangelizing throughout the world. We Christians cannot wait for people seeking God to stumble into our churches. Rather, Christians must go to them and invite them to join our movement.

In a similar manner, conservatives must go!

They must go to black entrepreneurs. They must go to black parents. They must go to black preachers.

No more buffoonery. No more Stepin Fetchit. No more minstrel shows.

Blacks don’t need to be persuaded or convinced about conservative values. Blacks are the most conservative group in the country and have been for most of America’s existence.

Conservatives must start financially supporting legitimate, credible black organizations and individuals who have standing within the black community.

Conservative groups must form strategic partnerships with these credible black groups and individuals.

Far too often, conservatives attempt to address issues publicly that are of particular interest to the black community, but with not one credible black person on the platform with them.

Do conservatives not realize the optics of having a white person who has no standing in the black community attempt to address racial issues?

Being conservative and having the intellect to realize and then act is a black problem

So you are publically stating that a very high ranking Mormon actually goes against Scripture?
