“Toy Guns Outlawed At Republican Presidential Convention. Real Guns Allowed”
A Racial Divide Among
Evangelicals on Gun Control
May 10, 2016 | 407 videos Video by Independent Lens http://www.theatlantic.com/video/index/481899/a-racial-divide-among-evangelicals-on-gun-control/
The documentary The Armor of Light follows the journey of the Evangelical minister Rob Schenck as he attempts to preach to a reluctant audience on the issue of gun violence in America. “You can’t ignore the racial dimensions to this whole subject. It’s the giant elephant in the room that must be addressed,” he says in this short clip from the film. The reality is that different conversations exist within white and black families regarding guns and gun safety, and young black men are at an elevated risk of being shot. One of Schenck’s main allies in this fight to unify Christian believers has been Lucy McBath, the mother of Jordan Davis, an unarmed teenager who was killed in Florida and whose story cast a spotlight on the state’s Stand Your Ground laws. “Instead of looking to God righteously as the protector, we have replaced God with our guns,” McBath tells Schenck. “God did not give you the right to shoot to kill because you think that you're threatened.”
