In this episode, I talked with historian, antiracism educator, and podcast host Lettie Gore. Lettie has a master’s degree in history and a master’s degree in conflict management and resolution. Lettie explained how we got to where we are today in white and “multiethnic” churches with Christian leaders not denouncing and repenting of white supremacy and ways these churches can even cultivate a culture where white supremacy thrives. You can also listen to Lettie's episode from season 1, "The Importance of History," if you haven't. Follow Lettie and join her Patreon community.
