CCSJ: There is no place for racism in the world today

The Catholic Commission for Social Justice is calling on all citizens to denounce racism. Following is the Commission’s full statement:

The Catholic Commission for Social Justice (CCSJ) calls on all citizens to denounce racism, which is a vile worm that eats at the very soul of our beings and our nation. Racism is a sin and should be eliminated in all its forms e.g. individual, institutional, direct, and indirect.

Let us not forget the impact of racism on the lives of our ancestors.  As T&T’s Independence Day approaches, let us reflect NOW on ways in which each of us may have, wittingly or unwittingly, through thought, word, or action, fed this socially constructed, hydra-headed monster. And let us commit to root out this evil from our hearts and minds. Indeed, the heart of the matter is in the human heart.
