Racism, to most black evangelicals, is a virus permeating the whole of American society. This means that, even when overtly racist sentiments are abandoned, the consequences of racism remain imbedded in the primary institutions of the nation. Inherited poverty, inadequate schools, physical distance from good-paying jobs, negative stereotypes and the common assumption that white is the color of normal, all these things make it harder for people of color to advance and prosper.
