How and why did it happen? How can we be rid of racism? This personal, spiritual, and historical journey into the roots of racism explores how the sin of racism has not been overcome in a spiritual sense despite the end of slavery more than a century ago. The Sin of Racism reviews some of the historical milestones related to racism such as, the slave trade, American slavery, pseudo-scientific racism, and today''s cultural divide, through a Christian evangelical lens. Intended as a spiritual guide, this book not only helps individuals understand the roots of the sin of racism, but also helps them learn to overcome it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[With] The Sin of Racism: How to be Set Free...Selena Johnson has gifted us with a thoughtful, well written, challenging, relevant, loving, Christ-centered effort.
