TEN MYTHS WHITE PEOPLE BELIEVE ABOUT RACISM : Below is the continuation of an article I shared with you last weekend. It can be found in its entirety as printed in the January 2, 2019, issue of Christian Century. As I mentioned last weekend, I am sharing it with you at the encouragement of Archbishop Carlson and his brother bishops call to us work on racism in our country. While this article is uncomfortable to read, it offers us all much food for reflection: Myth 4: Racism has to do with intentions. If we have no intention of offending someone else and no consciousness of racial bias, then we may feel resentful for being accused of racism. If we are generally good people who feed and clothe the homeless and give our money to the poor, it can feel as if we are being unjustly accused of racism when the rest of our behavior shows our moral intentions. Unfortunately, great harm comes to others not simply by our intentions, but by our inattentions. If we are not paying attention to how others are harmed by large social forces that may be out of our personal control but nevertheless benefit us in unjust ways, our inattentiveness to these social forces can be hurtful. Paying attention to the ways racism continues to unjustly privilege white people and disadvantage people and communities of color enables us to see racism as much bigger than our intentions. Separating intention from inattention means that if we say something that inadvertently hurts someone else, we do not need to get defensive. Instead, we can say, I m so sorry. I did not realize what that would sound like or feel like for you. We can use the experience as a learning opportunity to see life from another s point of view. Myth 5: Racism is caused by ignorance. We cannot blame racism on ignorance, because we perpetuate it even when we should know better. To say racism is only about ignorance denies the ways racism is perpetuated even by those who denounce white supremacy and seek to work against it. It also ignores the fact that racism has been justified and defended by persons who have received many years of education. Scientists have claimed to demonstrate the inferiority of other races to Caucasians by pointing out head circumference and other physiological proofs for the white man s superiority. Trained clergy with academic degrees argued for the legitimacy of slavery on religious grounds. Lawyers made cases for separate but equal schools for children of color segregated from white children. White politicians with college degrees have labeled entire countries of black and brown populations with derogatory terms. Even at the highest levels of academia, persons of color continue to experience racism from those who are bearers of the intellectual torch. Myth 6: Racism is irrational. This myth assumes that racism does not make sense and that it is based on faulty ideas about the racial superiority of whites over nonwhites. But what do we mean by rational? Sometimes we operate out of a rationality of common sense that includes what serves our best interests. As a white person, if you ve been given the choice to live in a good neighborhood with excellent schools for your children where your house is likely to appreciate in value, would it not be rational for you to want to live there if you can afford it? If developers want to build apartments in the neighborhood that will increase the availability of low-income housing, giving more people access to these great schools, it may seem just as rational to want to protest such development. After all, you do not want your children s schools overcrowded, and maybe you fear the possibility of increased crime in your neighborhood or even your home value declining. These responses may all seem rational, but at the same time they perpetuate a system of racial exclusion. The way racism perpetuates itself is often through these subtle avenues. We fail to consider how our prejudices operate to preserve our own self-interests. It is completely rational for us to want the best schools for our children. It is completely rational to want our home investments to increase in value. But how do we respond to persons for whom the color of their skin prevents them from buying a home in the best school districts or getting a mortgage for a home they can invest in? Myth 7: Racism can be remedied through education. Unfortunately education can t solve all of our problems. We are selfish. Even if we know we should be less selfish, it does not make it any easier for us to want to share with others. Even if we have been educated in liberal schools, it does not prevent us from operating out of our unconscious biases. Even if we have been taught to recognize that the stereotypes about people of color are not true, we may still respond physically out of deep prejudices when we are least aware. Learning the right definitions of racism or using the most up-to-date terms will not inoculate us against continuing to act in racist ways or contributing to racial inequity. Some people have never had the advantages of an education and yet have led the way in antiracism and kindness toward all people. If we assume racism can be remedied through education, then we are assuming a privileged status for those who are educated, as if those with education are more virtuous or have a greater capacity to be good. Myth 8: Racism will end as we have more and more interracial relationships. While it is important for our congregations to become more diverse, it will not be enough to end racism. Traci West, in her book Disruptive Christian Ethics: When Racism and Women s Lives Matter, writes about her experiences as an African American in white congregations where she was repeatedly told that she had a beautiful voice, though she was actually self-conscious about not having a good voice. Because she was the only African American in these congregations, these awkward interactions and the assumptions behind them left West feeling even further marginalized. Even within multicultural faith communities, racism has opportunities to operate. Sociologist Korie Edwards conducted a study of a multiracial congregation to see how whites and people of color negotiated their relationships in the church community. Edwards found that whites continued to remain dominant in power positions in the church, even when their percentage of overall membership declined to the point of being a minority within the church. In other words, racism exists even in multicultural contexts, and it is important to keep talking about it even when we have made significant progress in becoming a more integrated church and society. White people in particular need to continue to examine our own racism and how it may be at work even when we have a lot of interracial relationships. Racism can continue to operate even within multicultural faith communities. (Please come to this Monday s viewing of Slavery by Another Name. )

Monthly Ladies Evening of Recollection Recollections offer a respite from daily distractions and activities to reflect on your everyday life in the light of basic Christian principles. These quiet evenings aim to help you refresh your spirit, strengthen your personal relationship with God and transform your ordinary work and life into a path to holiness. The evening consists of a practical talk about living our faith, two guided meditations given by priests of Opus Dei in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament, ending in Benediction. Quiet times between mediations offer a chance for spiritual reading/rosary and confession, etc. Join us for the next recollection, Wednesday February 6 at St Cletus Church beginning at 7:30-9:30.

Our Lady of Guadalupe s Celebra on of Día de Candelaria Saturday, February 2nd at 5:00 pm The Día de la Candelaria (Candlemas Day) is a big feast in Mexico. It differs from the Candle Mass in the United States, for not only do candles get blessed but the baby Jesus from your nativity set is presented and receives a blessing. Día de la Candelaria is celebrated on February 2 nd, falling 40 days after Christmas. According to Jewish law it was customary to bring a newborn baby to the temple. On this day custom dictates that a family Nativity scene is put away with a party by the person who got the Baby Jesus in his/her piece of bread during the Three Kings celebration. This person also presents the baby Jesus with a new christening gown for the Candelaria blessing. A party follows the ceremony. Come celebrate with us: Bilingual Mass at 5:00p.m. Fiesta will follow with music, food, and dance. It will be potluck, so please bring a dish to share Please bring the baby Jesus from your Nativity creche for a blessing!!! Our Lady of Guadalupe is located at 1115 So. Florissant Road in Ferguson, 63121. Please call (314) 522-9264 for more information.
