Chicago church 'fasting from whiteness' during Lent by ditching hymns written by White people

A church in suburban Chicago has told parishioners it will abstain from performing any music that is associated with White people during the season of Lent.

"In our worship services throughout Lent, we will not be using any music or liturgy written or composed by white people," the website for the First United Church of Oak Park reads. "Our music will be drawn from the African American spirituals tradition, from South African freedom songs, from Native American traditions, and many, many more."
...
According to a report from Turning Point USA, the church also erected a sign promoting the racially-charged Lenten fast saying that it would be hosting worship services "around the voices of Black people, indigenous people, and people of color."
...
The church is also reportedly promoting reflections that it calls "evotionals" which have supported the idea of "fasting from whiteness."
...
The church which is reportedly "fasting from whiteness" also describes itself as an "open and inclusive Christian Community."

There is no contradiction here. It is "whiteness" that is non-inclusive. Duh!
