In Episode 2 of "Jesus, Justice, and Mercy," we explore generational trauma as a part of our 4-week Black History Month series. Discussing insights from Eddie Glaude Jr.'s "Begin Again," we navigate the complexities of trauma, its impact, and its roots in historical injustices. The Lie of America's inherent goodness is confronted, examining the 3/5 compromise and its ties to slavery, Jim Crow, and mass incarceration. The episode highlights current disparities in Black mental and maternal health, urging reflection and action. Briefly touching on the "Black National Anthem," the podcast ends on a hopeful note, exploring the resilience of African Americans and asks the listeners to consider how the church should respond.
