一位前牧师、立志在深红州堪萨斯创造历史的候选人曾建议，在美国乔治·弗洛伊德之死引发的抗议浪潮中，人们应当为自身的白人特权忏悔。
2020年动荡的夏天，就在明尼苏达州弗洛伊德被杀几天后，亚当·汉密尔顿在复活教会呼吁会众承认自己的白人特权并忏悔。
“我所了解的一部分情况是，我成长的环境让我对社会中的某些事物视而不见，”汉密尔顿在一场题为“耶稣、抗议与忏悔”的布道中说道，“我确实如此。凭借受过教育、身为白人和男性的身份，我享有了某些特权，对吧？”

“我们不愿意听到这些，尤其是白人同胞们不愿听到。但这一身份确实附带了种种好处，”他继续说道。
汉密尔顿正在与堪萨斯州共和党参议员罗杰·马歇尔角逐席位，尽管堪萨斯州近一个世纪以来从未选出过民主党参议员，但这场竞选已成为本届中期选举竞争最激烈的席位之一。
汉密尔顿竞选团队的发言人泰森·布罗迪告诉福克斯新闻数字频道：“罗杰·马歇尔总想回避谈论自己起诉、监禁母亲，以及投票反对公布爱泼斯坦文件以保护性侵者的历史。他又一次攻击亚当，而这些攻击本身正是罗杰曾说过的话。罗杰自己的牧师都称亚当‘持中间立场’。堪萨斯州民众早已厌倦高油价和高食品价格，他们需要一位不会以种族、宗教、收入或18%利率支付医疗账单的能力来分裂我们的参议员。”
共和党人承认，在11月的选举前他们面临不利因素，但直到最近，共和党人对马歇尔与汉密尔顿之间的竞选并不十分担忧。

如今，这场竞选出现转折，库克政治报告将其评为“势均力敌”，原因是选民对燃油、食品价格和其他经济困境感到愤怒。作为回应，共和党全国委员会开始投入更多资源，以确保保住这一席位。
在整个竞选过程中，马歇尔基本都与唐纳德·特朗普总统保持一致，仅在少数决策上与政府有所分歧——上个月，在联邦移民特工突袭该州南部后，他呼吁国土安全部与堪萨斯州政府加强事前沟通与合作。
马歇尔将汉密尔顿描绘成一位“觉醒派”大型教会牧师，在布道中宣扬左翼理念。

总部位于马萨诸塞州的外部团体“主流基金”也是如此，据《堪萨斯城星报》报道，在汉密尔顿赢得初选后不久，该组织就在堪萨斯州投放广告，拼接了两段不同布道的内容，指责汉密尔顿“对堪萨斯州来说过于觉醒”。
在2020年6月黑人生命同样重要（BLM）抗议期间的那场布道中，汉密尔顿驳斥了打砸抢行为，并辩称尽管当时BLM运动是焦点，但所有生命都很重要。
“当然，所有生命都很重要，”汉密尔顿说，“每个人都明白白人的生命重要，警察的生命重要。”
汉密尔顿在2020年6月发布于教会YouTube频道的那场BLM抗议期间的布道中继续说道：“当我被警察拦下时，我从不担心他们会拔枪对准我。”
“但我认识的每一位非裔美国男性都会担心，当警察让他靠边停车时会发生什么，”汉密尔顿当时说道，“并不是说所有警察都很坏，他们会做出那样的举动，而是他们内心深处怀有这种恐惧。所以他们会将手放在方向盘的10点和2点位置。他们从小就被教导要这么做。对吧？”
“我没有被这样教导过，因为我不必害怕这种情况。对吧？还有其他许许多多事情，都是生活的一部分。你懂的，我可以……嗯，你明白我的意思。我的社会地位给我带来了好处和特权。我必须承认这一点，”他继续说道，“必须认清这一点。然后我必须倾听。我必须倾听并理解，最终才能看清自身的缺陷和冷漠。在我能帮助任何人之前，我必须经历一次转变。我必须忏悔。”
而六年前，当时首次竞选参议院席位的马歇尔，也发表了与汉密尔顿类似的严肃论调。
在社交媒体的 various 帖子和接受当地媒体采访时，马歇尔谴责了弗洛伊德的谋杀行为，并呼吁进行改革，以确保明尼苏达州的悲剧和联邦保护服务官员帕特里克·安德伍德的遭遇不再重演——后者在弗洛伊德死后几天的一场驾车枪击案中遇害。
“此外，共和党人呼吁国会民主党人跨党派合作，确保乔治·弗洛伊德和帕特里克·安德伍德的悲剧不再重演，从而通过重要的两党改革法案，”马歇尔在众议院司法委员会就警察执法行为和执法问责举行听证会之后在脸书上说道。

A former pastor and candidate running to make history in deep-red Kansas once suggested that people should repent for their White privilege as protests against the death of George Floyd rippled through the country.
During the tumultuous summer of 2020, just days after Floyd’s killing in Minnesota, Adam Hamilton called on his congregation at the Church of the Resurrection to recognize their White privilege and repent.
“Like part of what I know is that, is that I grew up in a way that I’m blind to certain things in our society,” Hamilton said during a sermon dubbed “Jesus, Protests and Repentance.” “I just am. And I have certain benefits by virtue of being educated, White and male, right?”
KANSAS DEMOCRAT BEGS KAMALA HARRIS NOT TO CAMPAIGN WITH HIM, ‘PLEASE DO NOT COME TO MY STATE’

“And we don’t like to hear that, especially White folks don’t like to hear that. But there are benefits that come along with that,” he continued.
Hamilton is running against Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan., in what has become one of the tightest races of this midterm cycle, despite Kansas’ near-century-long history of not sending a Democratic candidate to the Senate.
“Roger Marshall wants to talk about anything other than his history of suing and jailing mothers and protecting predators by voting against releasing the Epstein Files,” Tyson Brody, a spokesperson for Hamilton’s campaign, told Fox News Digital. “Once again, he’s attacking Adam for something Roger said himself. Roger’s own pastor called Adam ‘middle of the road.’ Kansans are tired of high gas and grocery prices and ready for a senator who won’t divide us by race, religion, income, or ability to pay a medical bill at 18% interest.”
Republicans acknowledge that they are facing headwinds going into November’s election, but until recently, the contest between Marshall and Hamilton wasn’t of much concern for the GOP.
SCHUMER WARNS OF REPUBLICAN ADVANTAGE THAT COULD CHANGE THE BATTLE FOR SENATE CONTROL
Now, the race has taken a turn and been rated a toss-up by the Cook Political Report as voters fume over the cost of fuel, groceries and other economic pain. In response, national Republicans are beginning to dump more resources into the contest to ensure that they maintain the seat.
Throughout the race, Marshall has largely aligned himself with President Donald Trump, only rarely breaking from the administration on certain decisions — last month he called for more advance notice and cooperation between the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Kansas government after federal immigration agents descended on the southern part of the state.
Marshall has painted Hamilton as a “woke” megachurch pastor, delivering left-leaning ideals from the pulpit.

So has an outside group based in Massachusetts, the Main Street Fund, which ran an ad in Kansas that spliced portions of two different sermons and charged that Hamilton was “way too woke for Kansas,” shortly after Hamilton won his primary, The Kansas City Star reported.
During the sermon from June 2020 amid the Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests, Hamilton pushed back against rioting and looting, and argued that while the BLM movement was the focal point at the time, all lives matters.
“Of course all lives matter,” Hamilton said. “Everybody understands white lives matter, blue lives matter.”
Hamilton continued in his sermon posted on the church’s YouTube page in June 2020 amid the Black Lives Matter protests, “When I’m stopped by the police, I’m never afraid that they’re gonna pull a gun on me.”

“But every African American man that I know is worried about what might happen when a police pull him over,” Hamilton said at the time. “It’s not that all the police are bad, they’re gonna do something like that, but there’s this fear underneath there. And so the hands go on the steering wheel at 10 and 2. They’ve been taught that from the time they were children. Right?”
“I wasn’t taught that, because I don’t have to be afraid of that. Right? And there’s a whole host of other things that are just a part of life. You know, I can … well, you get the idea. There are benefits and privileges to my place in life. I have to recognize that,” he continued. “To see that. And then I have to listen. I have to listen and understand, and finally be able to see the brokenness in myself, and my indifference. Before I can do anything to help anyone else, I have to have a conversion. I have to repent.”
And Marshall, who was running for his first term in the Senate at the time, struck a similar somber tone as Hamilton six years ago.
In various posts to social media and interviews with local outlets, Marshall condemned Floyd’s slaying and pushed for reforms that would ensure what happened in Minnesota and to federal Protective Services Officer Patrick Underwood, who was killed in a drive-by shooting just days after Floyd’s death.
“Additionally, Republicans called on Congressional Democrats to work across the aisle to make sure that what happened to George Floyd and Patrick Underwood never happens again, and significant bipartisan reform can be passed,” Marshall said on Facebook following a House Judiciary hearing on police practices and law enforcement accountability.
