The Black Informant | African American Commentary, News and Community Building

This is one of those issues that I have yet to figure out. Oftentimes when a person makes an “racist” comment, or if a place of business is accused of not treating its Black employees/customers fairly, the preachers are the ones that usually line up in front of the cameras to demand an apology–OR ELSE.

Did Christ ever demand that those who crucified him should apologize OR ELSE? While I totally agree with a person’s right to express how something made them feel, true repentance isn’t on-demand. While you can always make someone say “I’m sorry”, it is next to impossible to make someone be sorry.
