Jemar Tisby (The Color of Compromise) rejoins Phil to discuss his new book, How to Fight Racism. Actual, real steps to be part of the solution, not part of the problem! Plus David French posits that the American church has been infected with something called \\u201cSouthern shame culture,\\u201d which sends Phil on a journey into the \\u201cLost Cause\\u201d narrative, confederate monuments, revisionist history and the overwhelming desire to \\u201cdefend our tribe\\u201d and punch back at enemies, real and imagined. It\\u2019s a wild, historical journey from the Civil War to Franklin Graham! (And if you don\\u2019t like it, it\\u2019s David French\\u2019s fault.)

Bonus for Patreon Subscribers: Phil asks Jemar some tough questions: What\\u2019s his take on the CRT controversy in the Southern Baptist Convention? And what about abortion? Since white Christians are more likely to vote for pro-life candidates than Black Christians, does that mean Black Christians don\\u2019t care about abortion? It\\u2019s a fascinating conversation available to everyone who supports the podcast at any level!
