Aug 24, 2022: Christian Post: Baylor scholar: 'Anti-racism' movement doesn't take seriously 'human depravity among people of color'
A Christian sociology professor who has researched “anti-racism” ideology says the movement, however well intended, fails to take into consideration the sinfulness of all human beings, including people of color.
George Yancey, professor at the Institute for Studies of Religion and Sociology at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, told The Christian Post that while he believes the anti-racism movement is an honest attempt to deal with America’s “institutional and structural racial issues,” he prefers to talk about a “racialized” society rather than a “racist” society.

Aug 11, 2021: Patheos: Who Will Be Saved? ; The Question That Divides Evangelicals from Mainline Protestants
While one can find mainline Protestants who hold exclusivistic views of salvation and evangelicals who are very inclusivistic and pluralistic (and maybe even universalist), in general I think that those who hold strongly inclusivistic views will find evangelicalism an increasingly uncomfortable theological fit, while those who hold exclusivistic views will eventually decide to break with mainline Protestant churches if they have not already.This distinction also offers a clue to an evangelical view of politics that George Yancey noted; and that I hope will gain wider attention.

Nov 6, 2016: George Yancey: The Stream: Has the Southern Poverty Law Center Finally Jumped the Shark?
"I HAVE BEEN CRITICAL OF THE SPLC IN THE PAST. I FOUND THAT THEY SELECTIVELY USE A SLIPSHOD METHODOLOGY TO IMPUGN THE REPUTATIONS OF POLITICAL ENEMIES. IT IS NOT TRUE, AS SOME SUPPOSE, THAT ONLY CONSERVATIVES FIND THEIR WAY UNTO THEIR HATE LISTS. INDEED CERTAIN BLACK RADICALS AND SEPARATISTS ALSO HAVE BEEN MARKED AS HATEFUL. SOMEHOW, THOUGH, THE SPLC HASN’T BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANY EXAMPLES OF WHITE PROGRESSIVES BEING HATEFUL. I’VE BEEN ABLE TO FIND SUCH EXAMPLES (DOCUMENTED HERE AND HERE) BUT WHITE PROGRESSIVE HATRED SEEMS MYSTERIOUSLY NONEXISTENT TO THE SPLC. EVEN THEIR LATEST ADDITIONS ARE PEOPLE OF COLOR. THE REASON, I SUSPECT, IS THAT BEING AN ORGANIZATION THAT CATERS TO WHITE PROGRESSIVES, THEY ARE BLIND TO HATRED WITHIN THEIR OWN TRIBE." GEORGE YANCEY [THE STREAM]
