Introduction
The history of racism and religion in the US begins with the underpinning interactions between European immigrants and the native Americans. Christopher Columbus said that individuals were "so gullible thus free with their goods that nobody who has seen them would trust it," as indicated by historian Howard Zinn. They never refuse your requests for things they as of now have. Going against the norm, they say that they will share with anybody. Columbus promised to convey "as much abundance... furthermore, as many slaves as they ask," in return for some assistance from his supporting Majesties, and he closed by saying that "the everlasting God, our Master, provides win to those who follow His direction against obvious impossibilities."
Columbus again made the same statement when in Haiti: "Let us for the sake of the Blessed Trinity continue sending every one of the slaves that might be sold." Despite these instances, Columbus has grown in popularity, and his commitment to a certain brand of Christianity obscured the terrible consequences of his actions. Although an overtly racist mindset didn't fully emerge in the United States until after the abolition of slavery, in some senses the mistreatment, killing, and conflict against Native Americans that was justified by religion marks the beginning of racism in the country.
The Puritans needed the Local Americans "far removed [and] needed their territory" when they arrived in New Britain. They alluded to the verse in Psalm 2:8 from the Book of scriptures, which states, "Ask of me, and I will give you, the pagan for thine legacy, and the furthest portions of the world for thy possession." Romans 13:2 was also invoked to buttress their argument that using force to occupy the country was required since doing otherwise would violate God's commandments and result in condemnation for anyone who did so. Columbus and the early Puritans set the course for an ethical economy that centres around the intersectional axis of religion, money, and race. As a result, racism and religious history are intertwined with America's economic history.
Impact of Racial Discrimination and Christian Perspective
Racial disparity refers to the unequal distribution of resources, power, and economic opportunities among races in a society. Although the topic of racial imbalance in the US is frequently discussed in terms of economic inequality, racial inequality also manifests in a variety of ways that collectively and solely affect everyone in the nation. This is due to racial disparities in wealth, education, employment, housing, adaptability, wellbeing, incarceration rates, and geographic locations.
In her remarks at the "Virtual Davos Plan" for the 2022 World Economic Gathering in January, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated that "A nation's drawn out development potential depends on the size of its workforce, the efficiency of its workers, the sustainability of its resources, and the stability of its political systems." This idea, which Secretary Yellen has dubbed "present day supply side economics," is the foundation of the Biden Administration's economic development strategy. According to Secretary Yellen, current supply side economics "prioritises work supply, human capital, Research and development, and investments in a sustainable climate" (McNicholl, 2018). This variety of areas under consideration work to promote economic growth and manage more enduring structural problems, such as disparity.
This reflects the fact that numerous policies in areas like housing, infrastructure, and access to the gig economy have not benefited all Americans, even if they were intended to foster economic advancement. People who live in rural regions, diverse communities, and other historically oppressed groups now find it more difficult to participate fully in and benefit from the prosperity of the nation. Our economy cannot be as valuable as possible if everyone is denied the chance to be as useful as possible. As a result, structural racism's impacts continue to limit everyone's ability to expand their economies. Furthermore, lose arguments that pander to concerns that one gathering would acquire to the detriment of another have hindered several economic reforms that would straightforwardly help Americans of all races and ethnicities.
Also, the jargon of "multiculturalism" and "visual weakness" serve to justify and think. In multi-racial Christian settings like Christian Greek Letter Organizations, parties and jokes that emphasise race uphold implicit forms of racism and replicate racial stereotypes, borders, and inequities that can be dismissed, defended, and rationalised as harmless or cheerful. The idea that "God does not perceive race" and that "He sees everyone the same... for what their identity is and not what they resemble - who you are on the inside" contributes to "visual impairment," both individually and collectively. Members of the Christian brotherhood emphasise this theological individualism by stating that their association is different from others because "you are living for Christ and his gospel," "being Christian, and living like God," instead of any distinctions based on class, race, or "some of these other social differences." (Oh et al., 2019).
This core value of "partial blindness" upholds a self-idea focused on being a "great Christian" while permitting racism to be acknowledged as harmless and humorous. In this manner, the discourse of "multiculturalism" promotes a "visually challenged" God and "partially blind" individuals while also fostering the development of certain forms of racism. Such findings raise theological issues in regards to the idea of "God's personality" and the relationship that follows with humanity. Albeit such theological reflection is outside the domain of this article, the conclusions drawn from social scientific research on American Christianity are urgent for theologians to additionally consider considering their own theological frameworks,...
