Despite how hyperbolic this topic seems, there are some serious ways in which The United Methodist Church reveals a low view of nonAmerican people. The institution is unavoidably ethnocentric, to the marginalization of the majority world church. A lot of folks are so close to it that they cannot see it. This is my attempt to show as clearly as I can how flawed and sinful the whole structure is by virtue of it privileging some over others based on social location, income, and assent to the new intolerant orthodoxy. The majority of the content in this segment comes from Odell Horne’s “De-Centering Whiteness in Methodism.”
