Davidson College is trying to school its students.
By “students,” I mean churches.
By “churches,” I mean white ones.
As reported by Campus Reform, the North Carolina school as described by TheRichest.com, “one of the best liberal arts colleges in the nation” will shell out $1 million to educate “white-dominant” congregations.
The subject: how to work toward racial equity.
To be clear, the funds come courtesy of Lilly Endowment, Inc.
Lilly’s a private foundation concerned with race and faith-focused charitable enterprises.
Davidson’s project is called “Churches That THRIVE for Racial Justice.”
Of course, “justice” is a subjective term.
