Argues that the biblical Christ is not the Christ of white Christian imagination

Short. Timely. Poignant. Pointed. Burying White Privilege is all of these and more. This is the book that everybody who cares about contemporary American Christianity will want to hear.

Many people wonder how white Christians could not only support Donald Trump for president but also rush to defend an accused child molester running for the US Senate. In a 2017 online essay that went viral, Miguel A. De La Torre boldly proclaimed the death of Christianity at the hands of white evangelical nationalists. He continues sounding the death knell in this book.

In Burying White Privilege De La Torre argues that centuries of oppression and greed have effectively ruined evangelical Christianity in the US. Believers and clerical leaders have killed it, choosing profits over prophets. Prophetically calling white Christians to repentance, De La Torre seeks to rescue the biblical Christ from the distorted Christ of white Christianity.
