Bishop Forrest Stith published a lengthy article leveling the charge of systemic racism against those who have disaffiliated from The United Methodist Church. What is to be said about such accusations? Is there any merit in the accusation? I submit that Stith presents false information to promote racial hatred and separation, that the institution of the UMC might continue to benefit from black people who would otherwise separate themselves.
