Belong

Recently, I watched a webinar about the response of the Catholic Church in the United States to racism and White nationalism. The featured speaker was Father Bryan Massengale, and he said this, “White nationalism is not about hate; it’s about who belongs.” In-groups and out-groups are a part of every human interaction, from high school cliques to Fortune 500 companies. With this blog, I intend to have conversations that can change our ideas about who is in and who is out, and, perhaps, move us closer to breaking down the barriers that racism and exclusion create between people.
