Episcopal Group Quits Refugee Program over White South African Arrivals

[Tall Timbers]

An Episcopal group is quitting a taxpayer-funded refugee program because President Donald Trump is importing white South Africans whose lives are threatened.

“Just over two weeks ago, the federal government informed Episcopal Migration Ministries that under the terms of our federal grant, we are expected to resettle white Afrikaners from South Africa whom the U.S. government has classified as refugees,” said the May 12 letter from Sean W. Rowe, the presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church.

The letter continued:

In light of our church’s steadfast commitment to racial justice and reconciliation and our historic ties with the Anglican Church of Southern Africa, we are not able to take this step. Accordingly, we have determined that, by the end of the federal fiscal year, we will conclude our refugee resettlement grant agreements with the U.S. federal government.
…

It has been painful to watch one group of refugees, selected in a highly unusual manner, receive preferential treatment over many others who have been waiting in refugee camps or dangerous conditions for years. I am saddened and ashamed that many of the refugees who are being denied entrance to the United States are brave people who worked alongside our military in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I'm glad I'm not affiliated with the Episcopalian church. As with the catholic church, there are probably some Episcopalian Believers.

So they don’t want to participate because these people aren’t brown enough for them. How shallow. I did some reading a few years ago on the racism there and it is terrible. Some of these white farmers have had arson done on their field and have been violently attacked. It’s bad.
