Christian rapper Amisho “Sho” Baraka Lewis recently led a discussion with fellow recording artist Kareem Manuel and minister D.A. Horton in which they offered Biblical responses to racial and social injustices for an online panel organized by the Urban Youth Works Institute.
Baraka, covered by The Christian Post earlier this year for controversial tracks on his new album Talented 10th, kicked off the hour-long live chat that touched on disparities in the public education system and the U.S. prison system.
“When we talk about racial injustice, the first thing I want to clarify is that race is not a scientific term, a lot of people know that, a lot of people understand that,” said Baraka before delving into the discussion. “When we talk about identity one of the things we have to be clear about is that God has communicated that we’re all His children. In Peter, how we see that we’re all His priesthood, a royal nation. So race is a construct that was created for the intention to identify people.
