We the People: It’s Time to Stop Pulling the Minority Card and Start Walking in UnityBy DivinelyDesigned60

Let’s just go ahead and say what everyone’s been skirting around.

We live in the United States of America. Not in 1765. Not 1865. Not even 1965. We are in 2025—in an age of innovation, opportunity, access, and constitutional freedom for every citizen. Yet for some reason, we keep dragging the past into every present moment, using it like a crutch to excuse bad behavior, false accusations, or division. And it’s time to call it out.

If you are a legal citizen of the United States, you are not a minority. You are part of the majority that makes up the fabric of this great nation. Your ethnicity, your skin tone, your background, your faith—it’s part of your identity, yes. But it does not make you “less than.” It does not entitle you to pull the “minority card” every time something doesn’t go your way or when you’re called to accountability.

Let’s get real—being corrected isn’t persecution. Being challenged isn’t racism. Being held to the same standard as everyone else isn’t discrimination.

What Does the Bible Say?

God isn’t colorblind—He’s color-honoring. But He’s also Kingdom-focused. And in the Kingdom of God, there is no superiority or inferiority based on race, language, or origin. There is oneness in Christ.

“There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free, there is no male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.”

—Galatians 3:28 (ESV)

That’s not just a church verse. That’s a government-of-Heaven mandate. If you claim citizenship in this country—and even more, in the Kingdom of God—then you have no business clinging to victimhood as your identity. Victimhood keeps people in chains that Jesus already broke.

“So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.”

—John 8:36

Let’s stop looking for offense and start leading with truth. Stop fanning the flames of division and start walking in the fire of the Holy Spirit—a fire that burns up bitterness, envy, and pride.

You’re Not a Minority—You’re a Citizen with a Responsibility

Being a citizen comes with rights, yes—but also responsibility. The greatest threat to unity is not the scars of our past, but the unwillingness to move forward. You’re not a minority if you live under the same Constitution, the same legal protections, and have access to the same resources and opportunities. What we do with those opportunities is on us—not the government, not our skin color, not our ancestors.

Let’s stop self-identifying with old pain and start living in new purpose.

Unity Is Our Calling

The body of Christ is many parts, one body. The nation is many people, one people. That’s what makes America beautiful—the melting pot wasn’t meant to be a battlefield. We are better together.

“Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”

—Ephesians 4:3 (NIV)

Unity does not mean sameness—it means agreement in direction. And as believers, as citizens, as brothers and sisters under the same flag and cross, we must reject every lie that keeps us in a cycle of division.

Final Thoughts

If you’re a legal citizen of the United States, stop living like you’re on the outskirts. You’re in. Welcome to the table. Now build with us. Lead with us. Grow with us. Serve with us. Stop pulling the minority card and start pulling the Kingdom card.

God’s not rewriting history—but He is redeeming it. And He’s doing it through a people who choose to walk in truth, not offense.
