Grammy Award-winning mainstream artist Chance the Rapper, has also joined those who want to send a peaceful message during the hard times that American nation is facing following the death of Georger Floyd.
The famous artist from Chicago decided to share his point of view posting scriptures: “Learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow,” he shared, quoting Isaiah 1:17.”
That’s not all, the rapper also is taking posts to Twitter that are calling people’s attention.
The artist posted some questions for the Christian church about confronting racism in America.
“I’m sure I’m gonna get replies from nonbelievers but I’d like to ask my Christian followers out there: Why don’t we as a church explicitly address White Supremacy and racism on Sundays?” he wrote.
“Why don’t we engage the truths of America and how it’s values are antithetical to the Gospel?,” he added.
The social media was instantly filled with people who responded that their church is addressing the issue. However, the rapper responded after someone wrote, “My pastor usually avoids talking about this stuff because he’s worried that bringing politics in his preaching will make a lot of people upset.”
Chance replied, “I think you have the right and responsibility to challenge your pastor to teach about Christ in the context of today’s America.”
