What is the connection between Jesus and Justice? What is Theological Racism? Arthur Maxwell Powell II asks Rev. Marc Lavarin, Assistant to the Pastor for the Online and Young Adult Ministries at the historic Alfred Street Baptist Church in Alexandria, VA. In addition, Rev. Lavarin is a doctoral student in Educational Leadership and a son of Haitian immigrants.

Main questions: How do you define “protest”? Why is protesting important? Why did YOU decide to protest? How did you prepare for protesting? What happened on the way to, during, and after your protesting experience? Has mainstream media and major news corporations reported on protests accurately? How so? What can we do to end systemic racism in our society? What keeps you hopeful that our descendants will live in a better world?
