Mark Galli offers a thoughtful post here on racial inequalities based on an Associated Press article–which Galli (correctly) judges to be a “textbook example of sloppy reporting: ignoring historical context and using an opening quote to determine an ideological tone for the entire piece.”
Galli also points to an article by CT editor-at-large Ed Gilbreath, who writes on Kramer’s Sins–and Ours. And even in the seemingly simple task of pointing to this article, Galli acknowledges struggling with “the confusion and awkwardness of race.”
I appreciate his honest perspective, join him in the fog, and echo his prayer: “Lord, have mercy.”
