    I just saw the Trinity United Church of Christ's "about us" which contains its committment to an explicitly separatist "Black Value System," much of which is contemptable. (You can see it here; my "fave" is "Disavowal of the Pursuit of "Middleclassness" - read it with Tom Wolfe's description of middle class virtues in mind, contained here.)

    Imagine how Trinity's "12 precepts and covenantal statements" would be portrayed if just one little word was changed, as follows:

    We are a congregation which is Unashamedly White and Unapologetically Christian . . .  These White Ethics must be taught and exemplified in homes, churches, nurseries and schools, wherever Whites are gathered. They must reflect on the following concepts:

    1. Commitment to God
    2. Commitment to the White Community
    3. Commitment to the White Family
    4. Dedication to the Pursuit of Education
    5. Dedication to the Pursuit of Excellence
    6. Adherence to the White Work Ethic
    7. Commitment to Self-Discipline and Self-Respect
    8. Disavowal of the Pursuit of "Middleclassness"
    9. Pledge to make the fruits of all developing and acquired skills available to the White Community
    10. Pledge to Allocate Regularly, a Portion of Personal Resources for Strengthening and Supporting White Institutions
    11. Pledge allegiance to all White leadership who espouse and embrace the White Value System
    12. Personal commitment to embracement of the White Value System.

    (Apologies for introducing a mostly national issue.)
