While it may well be inspired by a biblical reference, this is just toe curlingly awful. It is a clear attempt to indulge in white guilt.
Photos and video shared on social media show the group praying together as the pastors sat on a bench and their white peers knelt in prayer with buckets to wash their feet.
While what happened to George Floyd was appalling, this outpouring of white guilt helps no one. Unless you were there and able to prevent what occurred, you were not responsible and have no business accepting any responsibility for it, let alone atoning for it.
The washing of feet is a religious rite observed by various Christian denominations based of Jesus Christ’s commandment that his followers should wash one another’s feet, following his example, and to express humility and love.
But Jesus wasn’t trying to guilt trip people based upon the melanin content of their skin, which this clearly was. This is a grotesque perversion of his message. If black people were also involved in the washing of feet, then fine, but they weren’t, this was people apologising for being white.
I’m with Laurence Fox on this one. I cannot help the colour of my skin as it is an immutable aspect that I cannot change. If you try to judge me on the basis of that, you are a racist, pure and simple and everyone who is throwing about charges of white privilege is guilty of racism.
Irresistible debasement meets immovable sense of entitlement.
It’s a drug for both and it’s difficult to see how either can get off it.
None of this is of ANY relevance here and they can just utterly get fucked with it. That said, they might be doing us a favour longer term. It is so blatantly contrived and defacing the cenotaph on the anniversary of D day. If that doesn’t remove your blinkers, I really don’t know what will.
The kneelers are weak, virtue signalling fools. I wonder if they’re given a ‘survey’ after to create a list of compliant sheep to burgle/rob?
I did not kill George Floyd, now FO back to the barren ghetto you created and are rapidly creating more of across USA
Barren Ghettos:
Minneapolis too …

As for white guilt and reparations, whitey has been feeding them, paying their rent, subsidising their education, admitting them to Universities and excusing their poor academic performance, giving them make work jobs under affirmative action and recruiting them disproportionately into Government jobs since the 1960’s and now whitey is supposed to rebuild their cities, stock the food stores and pretend nothing happened?
I never owned slaves, they did not pick cotton. Long past time to call enough. My solution would be to either ship all blacks back to Africa (they term themselves AFRICAN Americans, after all) or set aside two or three states next to each other, move them all there and treat those states as a foreign country.
But whitely has suffered, paid and tried to raise them up out of their state long enough that it is time to call a halt to it.
Grotesque? Say rather, ‘diabolical’.
Look at me Look at ME sh!te.
I’m so not guilty I’m not even in the dock but within a decade I expect that one will be required to perform such obescience just ‘prove’ you ain’t racist.
I had a racialist (1960’s) live-in nan, got home from junior school with new best mate Andy, half Jamaican; nan opened the door ” no blackies” she crowed. Had to sit on the wall till Mum got home and sorted the old cow out. She was soon dead so Racist Nan problem solved, didn’t go to the funeral.
To the middle aged middle class woman currently on the BBC website spouting about ” ‘we’ need to address racism in this country too” at a BLM rally.
She should meet the dark skinned Kurdish guy I spoke to last year. He had finished his overnight shift in a kebab shop and was waiting for the first bus to take home, large village/small town up on the moor. As you might expect that place is extremly mono-cultural so I asked how he got on with the locals.
“Lovely people, always ask about my wife and child and if everything ok. If I say hello to man walking dog they always very nice. When I was before in Germany if I say hello they look at me like dirt on their shoe”.
Basically this. If British culture means anything it means “Take people as you find them and vice versa”. If you’re going to act like a Harlem drug king pin or some woke SJW who finds offence in every other word then the suburban comforts of Woodsey Newtown may not be for you.
If however, you’re a decent, civilised human being, regardless of the colour of your skin or the origin of your DNA, come in and have a cuppa.
I’ve seen some pretty disgusting and reprehensible things coming from both governments, protestors and the ever growing phalanx of virtue signallers,but this must for me be one of the most egregious I’ve seen
