Professor: Black Southern Baptists racializing Russell Moore investigation

Professor Carol M. Swain of Vanderbilt University blasted black Southern Baptists for racializing the Southern Baptist Convention’s Executive Committee’s investigation of Dr. Russell Moore.

In a Facebook post linking to an SBC Voice blog, Dr. Swain wrote, “The concerns about Dr. Moore go beyond his criticisms of Donald Trump. I believe they are related his purported ties to Soros-funded groups and his failure to disclose his party affiliation in his attacks against candidate Trump. No one should be surprised that black leaders would racialize the investigation. It is not unreasonable to expect the head of an ethics commission to set a high standard for transparency.
