SEE IT: White cops and community members wash black faith leaders’ feet at protest

A group of white police officers and other community members washed the feet of local faith leaders in Cary, North Carolina after a Unity Walk in honor of George Floyd, in a Biblical ritual of forgiveness.

It was a modern-day Biblical ritual, played out on a park bench after a walk led by black faith leaders in honor of George Floyd, the Minneapolis man killed during an arrest on Memorial Day.
After a Unity Walk organized by Faith Wokoma and her husband, Soboma Wokoma, co-pastors of the Legacy Center Church in Cary, North Carolina, white cops and community members knelt at the feet of the two pastors – and then washed them.
“As we look through civil rights history, the church was always such a big part of change,” Faith Wokoma told WTVD-TV before the march. “And we don’t want it to just be the black church or white church, or Asian church. We want the body of Christ to come together, collectively.”

And come together they did, first in the procession that formed a “multiracial, multiethnic, multicultural response” to the death of Floyd, who died under the knee of a Minneapolis police officer who has since been fired and charged with second-degree murder.

It culminated in a ritual washing of the feet in a forgiveness ceremony. White police officers and community members washed the feet of Faith and Soboma Wokoma, offering a prayer of repentance and an appeal for the sins of racism, as WTVD reported.

The act draws on the Bible Book of Luke, in which a woman washes Jesus’ feet when he’s invited to the home of a Pharisee for dinner. The Pharisee is rattled, as the woman is a “sinner.” Christ tells his host that this supposed sinner who washed his feet had done so when the Pharisee had not, and forgives her sins.

“It shows that we all want the same thing,” Soboma Wokoma told WTVD. “We want justice, we want peace. But we also want love in our community.”

     *More  and more information related to this event becomes available daily.  In an effort to not be fake news. I will be updating this post often..  For example, The original version of this post was based on a video that lead  me to believe the event happened on one street.  Later on after posting, a new, more complete video became available.  Irregardless,  my opinion on this event will not change.  I believe this event was staged. The embedded recording times in the  videos iis the proof. That is the focus of this post/research.  If  the information was not related to the video time, chances are I didn’t  include it. Sometimes too much information can be confusing and unnecessary once you have proven your point.  I believe this is one of those situations.  Any information I include that does not support my point, I do so in the spirit of information  sharing.

    In 1990 a CNN correspondent got caught pretending to be in a war zone during a live broadcast. Here we are in 2020 and CNN is still fabricating lies. Only this time their lies have caused serious damage to our country and our way of life. CNN should be shut down and everyone involved with this latest lie should be arrested.

    Today I will show evidence that should leave no question about the George Floyd video being staged.

  2. A ritual of forgiveness? What are we forgiving black people for? It should be the other way around then shouldn't it? But it's not. It's a disgusting display of subservience. And no one will be forgiven. The media is in fact using this to fan the flames further.
