Given that the 2016 election has been a farce largely orchestrated by marketers, civic participation in politics is on the decline, and our political representation is paralyzed, we must ask the question: is democracy a language of equality that produces inequality? Considering this question through a theological lens that takes whiteness seriously helps us get a better understanding of where we are and how we might best move forward together. Andre C. Willis is Assistant Professor of Religious Studies at Brown University.
