From Mark:
Read “The Testimony of Steve Biko” Edited by Millard Arnold (Maurice Temple Smith; London:1979) Need I mention your country’s treatment of Christians like Steve Biko (an Anglican … p. 98) who chose to defy your previous racist government? Biko was well versed in the teachings of the Catholic Paulo Friere whom the white protestant church disavowed. Which of your white Christians who hold a traditional concept of God and the Christ spoke up for Biko??????
Christianity is proved by actions and fruit. I am more impressed with the Black theology held by Biko than with the South African white church which stood by while he was murdered and did nothing … even though they held “correct dogma”.
