Waitstill Sharp’s sermon “The Colored Man Waits” on May 11, 1947 --
'Are ye not as children of the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel?' saith the Lord. When shall white men really believe the vision of Amos 750 B.C. Here is one of the key tasks of World Commonwealth: the development of a maturity and a compassion resourceful enough to control racism. A Christianity brave enough, gallant enough, wise enough to develop these resources, is the only Christianity fit to survive. The Judgement Day is upon us of the other white races.'
