On Fridays, BTSF offers links to other discussions about race & Christianity. It's an opportunity for you to read other perspectives, and for me to give props to the shoulders on which I stand...

• Why I Love Being a Black Girl

• Black 'Future' Month

• The Foolish, Historically Illiterate, Incredible Response to Obama's Prayer Breakfast Speech

• The lynching and torture of blacks in the Jim Crow South weren’t just acts of racism. They were religious rituals.

• Facebook Is Accusing Native Americans of Using Fake Names

• On Measles and whiteness, or the freedom to choose

• Mass incarceration & our faith
