There is no easy answer to America’s racial and political divide. But one thing is clear, healing in America will require both the church and government leaders taking action to build bridges in our nation.

 

“Silence is not an option. Complacency makes us complicit,” The Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, president of the National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference and a member of the National Coronavirus Recovery Commission, said in a statement after the killing of George Floyd. Rodriguez joins the podcast to explain the need for a national commission to address the broken trust between the African American community and law enforcement, and the role of the church during this critical time in history.

 

Rodriguez also discusses some of the latest work of The Heritage Foundation’s National Coronavirus Recovery Commission.

    “Silence is not an option. Complacency makes us complicit.”

    I already reject everything else he’s saying.
