How curiously different is this white God from the one preached by Jesus, who understood faithfulness through our treatment of the hungry, thirsty, naked, alien, incarcerated, and infirm. This white God of empire suits global conquerors who benefit from stolen resources and the labor of those deemed inferior; however, such a deity can never represent the God of the conquered. Echoing James Cone's assertion that white Christianity is a satanic heresy, Miguel De La Torre argues that whiteness has corrupted Jesus' message. He critiques how white American Christians have allied with oppressors, subjugating the "least of these"—those marginalized by race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic status. He highlights the overwhelming support for an antichrist president, who has exposed the deep-seated bigotry in American society. In this follow-up to Burying White Privilege, De La Torre outlines the need to decolonize Christianity and reclaim its revolutionary essence. He rejects timid white liberalism as mere complicity and, drawing from the parable of the sheep and the goats in Matthew, calls for unapologetic solidarity with the sheep and a firm rejection of the idolatrous Christianity of whiteness.
