we know Rascism happens in the church - Sister Okazaki wrote about her experiences admittedly years ago, but as recently as 6 months ago a Sister posted on this board she was in a mixed raced marriage and wanted to know how different wards in an area would receive her husband and children because of previous bad experience.

Its not just black vs white - heck here it can be Scots vs English at times. Then we have issues with Eastern Europeans. I have yet to encounter much but I do know it happens.

My Mum was unaware of racism in the city she grew up in it was only later she realised that the city centre shops refused to serve black people creating an unoffcial apartheid.
