Quotes by Kelly Brown Douglas (?)

“White culture is not marked by its uniquely creative and enriching social contributions. Rather, it is distinguished by its ability to promote the sanctity of whiteness by devaluing that which is non-White.”
― Kelly Brown Douglas, Sexuality and the Black Church: A Womanist Perspective

“Through the resurrection, God responds to the violence of the cross – the violence of the world – in a nonviolent but forceful manner. It is important to understand that nonviolence is not the same as passivity or accommodation to violence. Rather it is a forceful response that protects the integrity of life. Violence seeks to do another harm, while nonviolence seeks to rescue others from harm. It seeks to break the very cycle of violence itself. . . . That God could defeat the unmitigated violence of the cross reveals the consummate power of the nonviolent, life-giving force that is God.”

“those who view themselves as superior in society (with White men generally at the apex) are compelled to deny their “vile” sexuality and project their own very real sexual desires on others,”
