We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the Black religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an African people, and remain "true to our native land," the mother continent, the cradle of civilization. God has superintended our pilgrimage through the days of slavery, the days of segregation, and the long night of racism. It is God who gives us the strength and courage to continuously address injustice as a people, and as a congregation.

Where's the racism??
Can somebody post ANYTHING that the Rev.Wright has said that is racist, without changing or distorting the context of what he is saying.
I don't agree with everything I've heard him say but I haven't heard him say racist things to wards whites.
Unfortunately there will be people that say since a black man was elected President than it's impossible that racism still exists, and that a man affiliated with an organization with a clear history of direct and indirect action to disenfranchise black people could not possibly be racist.
If knowing that racism still exists in this country is tantamount to drinking the kool aid, than I've drunk about a gallon!
That "opinion" piece should have never been allowed out. That is rife with racial innuendo.
I've lost all respect for the NYTimes. All they did was add fuel to the fire that any disagreement to Obama's politics are raced based
What about freedom of speech? You know, the same thing as the Tea Partiers were doing yesterday?
The White House on Sunday dismissed a claim by New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd that administration critics like Rep. Joe Wilson, who called President Obama a liar during his health care address to Congress, are motivated by race.

Lets just change the wording from TUCC's Value System a little:
Lets call it a White Value System
We are a congregation which is Unashamedly White and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the White religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an European people, and remain "true to our native land," the mother continent, the cradle of civilization. God has superintended our pilgrimage through the days of religious oppression, the days of founding the country, and the long night of war for independence. It is God who gives us the strength and courage to continuously address injustice as a people, and as a congregation. We constantly affirm our trust in God through cultural expression of a White worship service and ministries which address the White Community.."
