George Yancey, a sociologist who teaches at Baylor University, wrote this book several years ago. He's looking for a Christian approach to the problem of racism. In this first session we look at the introduction and first chapter, where Yancey makes two important claims. First, racism is a sin problem. We're not going to understand it or deal with it successfully until we recognize that. Second, we see that "racism" has two competing definitions. The first (and oldest) sees it in individualist terms. The second (predominant in recent discussions) sees it in structural terms.
