Ep. 04: DOUG WILSON | Is Race a Lie Many Have Bought Into?

from Of Flames and Crowns · host New Saint Andrews College

Many confuse ethnicity with culture, mistaking skin color as the source of a society's strengths or flaws. This misconception has led to the fallacy of attributing a culture’s superiority or inferiority to the ethnicity of its people—as if the two were inseparable. At its core, the concept of race is a dehumanizing construct, designed to strip individuals—made in the image of God—of their dignity. Meanwhile, multiculturalism attempts to promote cultural neutrality, offering a syncretistic vision of peace and harmony unmoored from truth. Join Lennox Kalifungwa and Douglas Wilson as they explore the distinctions between ethnicity, race, and multiculturalism, exposing their implications for culture and society.
