PASTOR RICK DONKOR'S BOOK: THE COLOR

OF GOD

The Color of God: America, The Church and the Politics of Race is a clarion call to racial healing and reconciliation in a racially-polarized America, and an urgent message to Black America, to rise up and fulfill its divine destiny in the land of its birth. Highlighting the confluence of race, religion and politics, without being overly polemic, the message contained in its pages will certainly captivate, provoke, educate, occasionally frustrate, even infuriate you regardless of which side of the political spectrum you belong to. The recent incidents of police brutality against unarmed Black men, the cold-blooded murder of Rev. (Senator) Clementa Pinckney and eight of his parishioners in church, by 21-yr. old White supremacist, Dylann Roof, not to mention the meteoric rise of Donald Trump as the presumptive nominee of the Republican party for president of the United States, have once again thrown the spotlight on the issue of race in America. Some, like Andrew Hacker, have described America as comprising: "Two Nations, Black and White, Separate, Hostile and Unequal," emphasizing, in essence, the bifurcation of American society into two polar racial groups, with all the other races caught in the cross-fire between them.
