White folks need peer relationships with people of color who don’t just need them. People like me. I have good credit, and I can take you out to lunch and pay for it. I own my own home, and I don’t need your help. But as long as the only people of color our white siblings engage with are minority orphans on a mission trip who pose for a picture with them that gets posted on social media pages, the problems will continue to plague us well after I’m gone.
