A recent election watch party at the Atlanta University Center highlighted the emotional toll of the 2024 election on Black Gen Z voters, who expressed concerns about systemic inequities and the implications of a potential Trump presidency for their communities. Concurrently, a report by the Church of England's racial justice commission revealed persistent institutional racism within the church, hindering the advancement of ethnic minorities, particularly in leadership roles. The report, 'Behind the Stained Glass,' criticized the church for a lack of diversity and biased recruitment processes, leaving many ethnic minority clergy feeling unsupported and marginalized. In a broader context, reflections on the state of American evangelicalism reveal a troubling loyalty among some evangelicals to the MAGA movement, causing disillusionment within the church. Additionally, discussions around Black secularism indicate that African-American non-believers often feel pressured to hide their beliefs in predominantly Christian spaces, complicating their professional networking experiences. This highlights the intersection of race, religion, and identity in contemporary society.
