"Many Republicans have resorted to personal attacks and racist dog whistles to undermine Harris’ credibility as a challenger. Whether they are official party members or average American voters, many of these people are Catholics, and their assaults against Harris have rehashed deeply entrenched White stereotypes and caricatures of Black Americans," writes Efran Menny.

One of the beauties of the Black Catholic experience here in America is that we can look at the past for a road map on how to impact our future in our increasingly inhospitable church.

If we want to have serious discourse about being pro-life, it's imperative that we as church put the issue of Black maternal health at the forefront of the movement, and address structural racism in our medical system.

Efran Menny connects the recent tragedy in Memphis to the suffering Mother of God, seen in the mothers of Black men murdered in an unjust America.
