GREEN BAY - Rania Jones felt alone when she moved from Milwaukee to Green Bay to attend college.
She was the only Black person at her job on the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay campus, and a manager often commented on her hair. Her white peers avoided her. No one has called her a racial slur, she said, but these experiences known as microaggressions are still harmful and add up over time. They were pretty scared to come to me, talk to me, said Jones, now a sophomore and president of the Black Student Union. I kind of felt isolated in many of my classes.

She’s a fellow with Auburn Seminary. And most recently, well, let me say, over the pandemic, I started following her Instagram Lives, which are just so compelling and so insightful. And occasionall

On Jan. 22, Tom Buck, pastor of First Baptist Church of Lindale, Texas, equated Kamala Harris with the biblical Jezebel.
“I can’t imagine any truly God-fearing Israelite who would’ve wanted their daughters to view Jezebel as an inspirational role model because she was a woman in power,” Buck tweeted.
He has since doubled down in the face of criticism, tweeting “I 100% stand by it,” and insisting, “Should Jezebel, who governed in godless ways, have been a role model simply because she was a woman in power? If not, why should Kamala, who’s governed in godless ways, be a role model just because she’s a woman in power?”
