This is why we shouldn't lead with racism.

For the Colson Center, I'm John Stone Street with the point.

Last week, President Biden called the recent killings of Muslim men in New Mexico hateful attacks,

implying they were hate crimes against the Muslim community.

Less subtly, the mayor of Albuquerque said,

violence against members of our community based on race or religion will not be tolerated.

But then, the police arrested a Muslim man, who, according to NBR, frequented the same mosque

as his victims, though he was a Sunni and three of his victims Shia.

See, this is what happens in a culture that's infected by a critical theory mood.

Reduce everything to sex, power, and race, and as the adage goes, to a hammer, everything

looks like a nail.

Assuming racism without facts provoked suspicion among groups.

Keeps this from seeing others in God's image.

And in the end, people become judged by the color of their skin

rather than the content of their character.

Or even worse, the content of their character is assumed because of the color of their skin.

We can do better.
