INTERVIEW: Voddie Baucham Explains ‘Looming Catastrophe’ of Critical Race Theory in the Church

The star of Christian pastor and apologist Voddie Baucham has risen substantially over the last year, an elevation tied directly to a cultural fascination with critical race theory and some Christians' affinity for the politicized social justice movement. He joins CBN's Faithwire team (Dan Andros, Tré Goins-Phillips) for a lengthy discussion about his new book, which dissects problems with CRT in detail. In Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism's Looming Catastrophe," Baucham focuses on defining the terms so many are wont to throw around these days, in both pessimistic and praiseworthy ways. As the number of voices facing big-tech censorship continues to grow, Baucham, a Los Angeles native who serves as the dean of theology at African Christian University in Zambia, relies on the writings of CRT co-creator Richard Delgado, who argues racism "is ordinary, normal, and embedded in society" and that it "advances the interests of both white elites (materially) and working-class people (psychically), [therefore] large segments of society have little incentive to eradicate it."
