Given the vehement discourse surrounding the topics in The Color of Compromise, it is appropriate to lay out my presuppositions before I begin this review.įirst, I am approaching the book with the belief that the canon of Scripture is the authoritative, inspired, infallible, and inerrant Word of God. However, while the book offers a painfully deep discussion of how the historical American church has operated on race, many of the conclusions and inferences in The Color of Compromise warrant critique, especially on its understanding of the Gospel and current-day Christianity. The Color of Compromise by Jemar Tisby is an appeal to the American church to not only realize the appalling history of slavery, racial segregation, and events leading up to the Civil Rights Movement but to actively change its attitude regarding current racial issues. ![]()
