Skin color’s a dumb thing to focus on! So much pain was released when it became a way of evaluating people. Let’s quit judging people by their “color.”
Eye color, hair color, skin color; does any of it really matter? God just looks at the heart. Why don’t we all do that?
So what about historical statues and other symbols that commemorate people who embraced, supported, and defended abusing and trafficking people because of their color? If we truly want a society built on equality and love, it seems to me like we would need to move on and leave those things behind.
There’s no such thing as race in the body of Christ. We’re all sisters & brothers.

Not to mention that the First Commandment includes that part about “no graven images.”
