Emphasis Preaching Journal

As the senior minister of a church in the city, I find it extremely difficult and rather uncomfortable to write an article in opposition to affirmative action. Frankly, the mere suggestion of it sounds unchristian or at least a pontifical pundit made by a minister whose parishioners average six figure salaries and dress down day means wearing designer clothing by Prada, Boateng, Duffy, or Basilian. Yet, after examining and living during the age of affirmative action, I must admit a word of challenge needs to be shouted and not whispered.
