White Too Long by Robert P. Jones is a powerful, deeply researched examination of the long-standing ties between American Christianity and white supremacy. Drawing on history, public opinion data, and personal reflection, Jones reveals how white Christians—across denominations and regions—have actively built and sustained systems of racial inequality.

With a family Bible in one hand and PRRI surveys in the other, Jones traces how racist attitudes have become embedded in white Christian identity over time. He argues that reckoning with this legacy isn’t about guilt or altruism—it’s about truth, integrity, and the future of both American Christianity and democracy itself.

This “indispensable study” (Kirkus, starred) is a call to action: white Christians must go beyond apologies and begin real work toward racial justice and repair.
