To put this in context, black churches are burning to the ground and have received less coverage than the CVS that was burning during the Baltimore riots, or the infamous Quik Trip gas station in Ferguson, Missouri.
As another group of Black Christians begin to regroup and get their lives and their faith back in order, the outrage is slowly start to pour out from the media. Yet, most major black outlets have been as silent as our mainstream contemporaries. It dawned on me this morning as I scrolled through my Twitter timeline and spotted some people discussing the lack of coverage about the church burnings on major outlets like CNN and FOX News.
“7 churches burn and not a word from CNN or FOX?”
“They can cover a riot, but 7 churches burn and nothing #Foxnews #CNN”
