Washing the feet of black people is the white thing to do, because white people exist solely to serve blacks.
They should have also kissed black people’s feet.
But overall, it was a good start.
We are finally recognizing that the color black is a sacred color, and that black people are intrinsically holy.
White police officers and community members gathered to wash the feet of black faith leaders in North Carolina, echoing the Biblical story of how Jesus washed his disciples feet.
People of faith gathered for a unity march in Cary on Saturday, braving the summer heat to protest the brutal police killing of George Floyd and demand an end to racism.
Members of the Legacy Church Center, led by co-pastors Faith Wokoma and her husband Soboma, helped organize the unity prayer walk, where people gathered, observed eight minutes and 46 seconds of silence to mark how long a white cop had his knee on Floyd’s neck in killing him, and prayed for the country.
As a part of the event there was a ‘Washing of the Feet’ ceremony where at least three white law enforcement officers and three other white attendees washed the feet of pastors Faith and Soboma Wokoma.
Photos and video shared on social media show the group praying together as the pastors sat on a bench and their white peers knelt in prayer with buckets to wash their feet.
The washing of feet is a religious rite observed by various Christian denominations based of Jesus Christ’s commandment that his followers should wash one another’s feet, following his example, and to express humility and love.
Video of the ceremony was shared to Facebook where it went viral racking up over 2,400 views.
‘Powerful display of what reconciliation looks like,’ one Facebook user wrote.
‘This is how racial healing starts,’ another added.
Yes, my fellow white people: the key to ending racism is kneeling before your superiors.
You see, you’ve been very mean to blacks, doing the slavery thing to them and all, and now you have to repent and redeem yourself.
You did this to him.
This was actually your religion all along.
Once you understand that black people are above you, you can begin to behave like Pope Francis knows you’re intended to behave.
