"endi--worry--shayo: ingaba ooqueen abayitrapa ngeenyawo kwesisixhifilili bayakufika na edladleni? isizukulwana sikamandela sigidla kwiitoti nalaph’ ekanana na? kanti abantu bethu bagowa thru lento na? hay jonga skeem, ngumgowisho lo soz’ uve. wayengajiyi ubiko ngokuya wayesithi ijaja linawe wena uye wakhulela kwindawo enje wade wamdala! some excellent thoughts here. i am white, but went to high school and played football with nearly all black guys. ngoko ke, i was definitely in the minority at my high school (and by far in the locker--room). growing up in the arkansas--missisippi delta, race tensions were (and still are) right on the surface. you constantly hear negative comments from both sides about the other. it’s sad. what’s tough is being ostracized by your own race for trying to reach out to the opposite race. i have seen first hand how racism can rear it’s ugly head within the church. it’s awful. i am thankful for guys like you, uhambo, who are willing to try and confront these issues from a gospel--based perspective. we are called to love our brother, no matter what skin color our brother happens to be. i long for the day that multi--racial churches exist across the delta. kodwa, the only way we will get there is by seeking to live out the gospel on a daily basis and being truly intentional about it.
