Ep. 6 - Thoughts on that Racism Devotional

Submit feedback on BYU's Race Equity and Belonging Report here

On an institutional level, I am of the belief that the most important work we can do is to try and keep BYU free of the influence of Critical Race Theory and all other forms of critical theory. Though there may be some truth in it, overall it not in line with the gospel and, when implemented, hurts everyone, including those it alleges to help. I am excited to talk about other topics in this podcast, but I think, for the sake of timeliness, we need to head back to the race discussion once again to respond to the devotional given by Ryan Gabriel on Tuesday April 6, 2021. I should note that 80% of the devotional was great. Really solid gospel teachings and important stories. However there was a few facts, leaps in logic, and one absurd point he made that I feel needs addressing. That is what we do in this episode
