Whilst being constantly exposed to the traditional representation of the white-bearded, white-skinned fat man, Harris developed the unsettling suspicion that all was not right with the world when she saw a darker skinned Santa represented in ornaments and figurines in the family home. The fact that a black family would insist upon a black representation of a character traditionally and universally accepted as white perhaps betrays deep-rooted racist tendencies.

While Christ the Lord transcends skin color and racial divisions, white Jesus has real consequences. In all likelihood, if you close your eyes and picture Jesus, you’ll imagine a white man. Without conscious intention or awareness, many of us have become disciples of a white Jesus. Not only is white Jesus inaccurate, he also can inhibit our ability to honor the image of God in people who aren’t white.
