Thread by @JemarTisby

The committee at @GroveCtyCollege that generated this report thinks they have defended Christian orthodoxy when in reality they have merely asserted their commitment to a regressive and narrow type of fundamentalism that opposes racial justice.

This saga has been ongoing, but I refrained from much public comment until the committee concluded its report. They spent a full page discussing my supposed threat to their mission because I promote what they call "Critical Race Theory." Here are their comments about me.

The committee does not cite any evidence of my supposed shift in thinking. They name check my former employer, and say "in hindsight, inviting Mr. Tisby to speak in chapel was a mistake." First, it's DOCTOR Tisby, second...it was only a mistake if you fear the truth about racism.

Here is the chapel message I gave at @GroveCtyCollege. View it while it's still up. Judge for yourselves whether I made such egregious comments as to warrant a full page in an anti-CRT report at a Christian college.

Expect more comments from me in an upcoming @RNS story. Also expect a special episode of @_PassTheMic about this issue. This report mischaracterizes me and borders on libel. I will not accept such accusations silently.

Most disappointing is this comes from a Christian institution. We follow a savior who said "You shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free." The report from @GroveCtyCollege shows that leaders have chosen the bondage of ignorance over the freedom of truth.

You can judge more for yourselves by reading my work firsthand and not taking someone else's accusations over your own analysis. JemarTisby.com/books
