In 1968, as a 12 year old boy, it was unnerving when my family pulled up to a police blockade one block from my grandparents home in Kansas City.
The police officer told us to go home. There had been race riots that day due to the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. Racial tensions engulfed the nation with fear.
Although it seems we’ve come a long way since then, we still have far to go.
1 Corinthians 12:13 teaches, “For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free.”
God wants us to live in unity. Workplaces can be a place of healing. Consider making a friend at work of a different race and learn about them personally.
