Sounds more like one of those bad old Southern Baptist commentaries. Supposedly Noah’s son Ham was “burned black” and cursed.

That seems highly speculative at best to me, having seen a great deal about how both curses and blessings, and especially the Lord, operates. The black peoples of the world have landed in disproportionate misfortune, I don’t doubt. What that says about their ultimate fates, I don’t know, and the upside of redemption in Christ remains wide open. Even “liberal” black people who get serious about God have told me, that though they don’t like Donald Trump, they choose to count on God rather than on the fickle favors of politicians.

Sorry, I doubt that a comprehensive, complete, unbiased review of history coupled with a Holy, Righteous, all-powerful, all-knowing God in charge of what happens would actually show that to be correct.

Maybe for a short-timeframe of human history, but the other races have had unbearable misfortune as well (for relatively short timeframes of history as well).

Remember, the rain falls on the just and the unjust.
