In the great span of world history, nearly all change and progress has come from an under-served and out-of-power group pushing, prodding, and pounding on those who hold power to expand it to include a wider and more diverse population.
Unfortunately, nearly every time, those in power don’t have the foresight or humility to expand the circles without this external threat.
As a white male Christian in America, I am part of a dwindling subset that has held the levers of power politically and economically in nearly every field for the entire history of the United States.
And though my Irish Catholic ancestors had to push to get a seat at the table, we are still a part of this dominant power group. Yes, the halls of power have slowly let in some people of color, women, people of a different faith, and people of a different sexual persuasion. But white male Christians still dominate the rooms where most decisions are made.
This must change in a much more dramatic way.
Instead of waiting for the diverse population of America to keep pushing and prodding, I would humbly suggest that we as white male Christians take it upon ourselves to step back and give more people who don’t look like us access to the levers of power.
We don’t have to wait, and our country is in desperate need of more diverse leaders. It is that diverse leadership which will not only represent more of what America looks like today, but it will give us the opportunity to find solutions which homogenous models of leadership aren’t able to.

I’m no professional writer like Dowd, but wouldn’t it be WE, blah blah blah.
If you need to ask somebody to step aside so you can lead, you’re not leadership material.

This guy is apparently clueless and unworthy of anybody or anything following him, except lemmings.
I know one thing for sure, this person is no Christian. He/She/It is a pretender.
How about no? Your move soy boy.

So do the world a favor...jump off a cliff.
South Africa will be a model for this, and it’s future success will be studied for years. Let’s revisit that real world laboratory in a few years to discuss it’s merits?
When you work at ABC News, where the business and programming is dominated by a very certain media set, I’ll bet it pleases the bosses very much to hear this type of “I’ll quietly and meakly go down the historical drain”-palaver.
White men own a lot of guns. Except this pu$$y named Dowd.
Heh, at least our society gives provable idiots such as that writer a place to work. Oh well, folks such as that give so many someone to feel superior to.
Ah, yes. Let’s roll over and let the Marxists have their way.
It won’t be long before we are not only hated, but imprisoned for our very thinking. Sent to the gulag. We will become the Soviet Union #2.
Won’t that be wonderful?
What an idiot. Even if he read Solzhenitsyn, he will not see the light - his darkness is very great.....
Why doesn’t this fool just Move to a Country that is already ran by Non Whites?, Maybe Mexico?,Syria?, Venezuela?, Iran? Irag, How About South Africa?
I WILL PAY YOUR AIRFARE!
He needs to move to Zimbabwe or South Africa to see the results of that. We’ve all seen it and seen enough to know what happens.
