When Two Americas Collide in the Same City
A white teenager and a Black teenager grow up blocks apart in Detroit. One learns that police officers are helpers who will guide him home if he's lost. The other learns that police are threats to hide from-a matter of survival. This isn't ancient history or distant geography. This is America, where your skin color determines which country you actually live in. This revelation struck when a young janitor named Jim Wallis befriended his Black coworker Butch and visited his home for the first time. The contrast was undeniable, shocking, impossible to unsee. When Wallis brought his questions to his white church, an elder shut him down: "Christianity has nothing to do with racism; that's political, and our faith is personal." That dismissal drove him from his church but toward a deeper truth that Black churches had always known-God is always personal, but never private. Fast-forward decades. We've elected our first Black president. We've passed landmark civil rights legislation. Yet young Black men and women still receive "the talk"-instructions on how to behave around police to stay alive-while white parents never have this conversation. Every Black Little League parent gives it; no white parent does. This radical difference in lived experience isn't about individual prejudice anymore. It's about something deeper, more insidious, and far harder to uproot. Believing that Black experience differs fundamentally from white experience marks the beginning of changing white attitudes, but it's only the beginning.
