Ta-Nehisi Coates Is On Some Olympic Level Mental Gymnastics Here

What is he watching people go through life and he's not able to do? He's speaking at a college campus, getting praises and accolades, and lauding all over applause left and right, again, selling his book. I'm sure he doesn't do this for free. What does he have to watch people do that he cannot do? Since he's imposing again, this is live-action role-playing. So he's assuming all this stuff. What does he not get to do? What someone should need to ask Mr. Coates. He wrote comic books. Has no qualification to write comic books. He wrote an entire comic book series because he's black. He's his book again, he gets to speak again. He's lauded all over the place. What does he not get to do because he's black? Ask him that question that you can't join in and do. And so I think there's actually a lot to be learned from refraining

I started Dear Woke Christian as a response to the turmoil of 2020. I saw the error in thinking within the Christian community and I wanted to provoke us to think Biblically about issues. So I started writing letters. My hope is to stir up conversation and critical thinking above emotions. Though emotions are good in context much of what's being pushed is "Act now, think later". That's far removed from a Biblical approach and I wanted to stir my brothers and sisters to ask better questions.
