Wisdom from Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers

When the Church takes her eyes off the Cross of Christ and capitulates to cultural norms and ideologies for either economic benefit or to maintain the status quo, the People of God suffer. This occurred with slavery through the deliberate twisting of the Scriptures by pro-slavery Catholics.

—Deacon Harold Burke-Sivers

from his book, Building a Civilization of Love: A Catholic Response to Racism
