The “Race” Issue

Answers in Genesis is very much involved in helping people overcome race issues by giving them the true history of the world from Genesis—and challenging evolutionary ideas that fuel racism.

Today’s lead article on our website is about Rosa Parks. Here is an excerpt from the article:

“And that is exactly what Rosa Parks did in 1955 when she refused to surrender her bus seat to a white man. Her single act created a spark that inspired an entire civil rights movement. Her defiance to segregation in the public transportation system brought about monumental change and set an example for generations to follow.

Although Rosa Parks left this earthly life on October 24 of this year, the spark she created 50 years ago continues to live on. The passing of this civil rights icon and devoted Christian provides an opportunity to reflect on the past, present and future progress of racial reconciliation.

We can all learn a lesson or two from this remarkable woman.”

I would encourage you to read the whole article.

Next week, we will receive in our warehouse copies of my new children’s book called All God’s Children. This is a book for young children to teach them about the origin of so-called “races”—I’ve never seen a book for young children that deals with the issue as this book does. For further information (great Christmas present for children, by the way) go to: All God’s Children on our bookstore.
