Carolyn J. Davis is a hack who works in a think tank founded by Clinton bozo John Podesta (Center for American Progress) ... a graduate of the Vanderbilt University Divinity School (the same one that flunked out Al Gore for being too stupid) ... and an ordained minister in The United Methodist Church.
Al Gore... I like to agree he's stupid, but then, how did he make a billion dollars? I like to think I'm smart, but I'm still trying.
Only one burned around here in recent history and it was reported by the Fire Marshall as electrical. White churches gave them worship space and raised money for them to rebuild.
And the media baselessly bashing people for just being white aint helping matters either....
it only serves as more radicalization fuel for demonic beasts like dylan roof.....
How do they know it wasn’t blacks who burnt the churches?
I don't remember any in the news in the Detroit Suburbs when I was growing up.
What exactly is a “Black” church? Does it have to have a certain percentage of Black members, be a certain denomination associated with African Americans or what? Wouldn’t a church that confines its membership to largely one race be itself racist? So if a church is destroyed in a fire deemed to be arson, is the crime somehow magnified based on the percentage of Black members? For example would the burning of a church with say 20% Black members not rise to the level of a hate crime but the burning of a church with 51% Black members would be deemed a hate crime? This whole idea of making certain kinds of church fires hate crimes is absurd especially when there is no evidence of arson. It would seem that somehow the racial make up of the congregation negates the facts.

Firestorm — A Review of the 1996 Church Fire Scare
Posted on 5/29/2002,
During the summer of 1996, Americans were deluged with thousands of newspaper, magazine and television reports that racists were torching black churches* throughout the South.
This article traces the origins and events of what appears to have been a remarkably effective campaign of disinformation.

Because maybe, just maybe ... you know.
Fascinating. She refers to the Emmett Till murder as a lynching even though it fails to meet the standard set up by the Tuskegee Institute, a black institution.
Not every murder of a black person by white people back in the day was a lynching. Some were just murder.
While she discussed the history of lynchings, I notice she carefully avoided mentioning the numbers. 3,446 black people were lynched in America from 1882 to 1968, the vast majority in the South. The great majority were early in the period, with the annual number down to single digits by the mid-30s.
Lynchings were horrible, and were denounced very early, as by A. Lincoln in the 1830s.
But they just weren’t nearly as common as the mythology holds. Watched a Denzel Washington movie recently in which it was implied that an average black person might witness or be aware of several lynchings per year in their particular area, in the 30s. Which is just flatly untrue.
But then the movie, to my considerable astonishment, also presented as truth the utterly disproven story of Willie Lynch. I guess that story is considered “false but accurate.”
Personally, I think it smacks a lot of the Elders of Zion. Make stuff up to prove how evil an entire race is.
Insurance companies took a good look at ‘black churches burning’ a few years ago...
Reminds one of the lesbian woman who carved hate messages into her own skin and tried to blame white men.
Or the Oberlin case of the white liberal student running around pretending to be KKK.
Or the case of the student feminist leader who wrote ‘rape threats’ to herself and attempted to blame conservative men.
There’s patterns...
Hey Carolyn, I have an official pardon from Walter E. Williams for my white guilt.
Go microagression your pseudo aggrieved sense of white guilt right outta here!
I reject completely what you are saying.
Thanks for a peek into the mind of a self-hating psychopath. She must stick an eggbeater in her ear every morning and scramble her ape brain.
Funny, seems to me that out of that rash of fires only one was attributed to arson, and damn me for saying it, I would bet on a member of the church being responsible.
Makes me even more glad that I left the Methodist church twenty years ago.....
I’ve never hated black people.....but I’m learning to.
