Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | SBC Pastor: Jezebel Was Not a Role Model. Neither Is Kamala Harris... Tom Buck pastor of First Baptist Church of Lindale, Texas, sparked a firestorm last week when he compared newly elected Vice President Kamala Harris to the pagan queen Jezebel. While the ensuing conversation has been emotionally charged, it raises important questions about how to have constructive discussions within the body of Christ.
According to an article published in the Psychology of Women Quarterly, “One common stereotypical representation of Black women is that of the Jezebel—an alluring and seductive African American woman who is highly sexualized and valued purely for her sexuality…The Jezebel stereotype was particularly common during slavery.”
Views on the Jezebel Comment Tom Buck’s tweet about Vice President Harris drew swift censure. Many of the pastor’s critics accused him of misogyny and pointed out the racial connotations of calling a Black woman “Jezebel.” Journalist Sarah Pulliam Bailey said comparing Harris to “Jezebel” is not only “extreme” but is also potentially “slanderous.” [ link to churchleaders.com (secure)] Susie
