This petition is a part of a nonviolent movement, protesting the lack of required Bible classes dealing with issues of race, ethnicity, cultural awareness, and social justice for undergraduate students at Biola University. These topics are found throughout the Bible as well as Jesus' ministry. A lack of knowledge and understanding of these types of issues leads to miscommunication and disunity on Biola's campus and in the body of Christ. Through this movement, we are working for a more racially and culturally diverse, unified community at Biola.
