Black souls matter
What does it mean to observe All Souls Day in the year of #BlackLivesMatter?
What does it mean to commemorate the dead in a year in which 957 were shot and killed by police?
What does it mean to talk about All Souls in a world where, to many white people, the phrase “black soul” has frequently referred to a person whose soul is cruel, evil, vile, and beyond redemption? Does it mean that, to much of white Christianity, all souls are actually white, not black? Because white is pure and black is dirty?
