Many thanks to PAW for allowing me to read the essay by Lawrence Otis Graham on his family’s experience of oppression by white privileged men and women while they raised their son in a predominantly white community. His essay has in some small way helped me to appreciate the Black experience as seen “through the wrong end of the telescope.” The essay is part of the curriculum for the Unitarian Universalist Wellspring Faithful Action program, through which it will reach a large number of privileged white people working for racial justice in our churches and communities.
