Woke Injustice by Bryan Osborne takes a deep dive into the pervasive influence of Critical Race Theory (CRT) and its growing presence in every facet of society, including the church. Far from being a neutral or helpful analytical tool, CRT is a dangerous ideology that seeks to divide and destroy, operating under the guise of social justice and equity. Osborne exposes the true nature of CRT, revealing it as a system designed to undermine biblical truth, disrupt the unity of the church, and reshape society according to a new, unbiblical standard.

Tracing the roots and evolution of CRT, Osborne demonstrates how this ideology has spread far beyond academia, seeping into schools, corporations, media, and even Christian institutions. Through deceptive language and redefined concepts like "whiteness," "privilege," and "racism," CRT advances an agenda that is fundamentally at odds with the gospel. It promotes division and discord, leading to a fractured understanding of identity, justice, and reconciliation within the church.

Osborne's book is both an urgent warning and a practical guide for Christians who seek to stand against the tide of CRT and its destructive influence. By meticulously unpacking the core principles of CRT and comparing them with the truth of Scripture, he provides readers with the knowledge and tools needed to discern and counter this dangerous ideology. The book's thorough analysis of key concepts, such as "white fragility" and "anti-racism," alongside a strong biblical framework, equips believers to engage with the cultural challenges of today without compromising their faith.

Woke Injustice is more than just a critique; it’s a call to action for the church to reaffirm its commitment to the sufficiency of Scripture and the gospel of Jesus Christ. Osborne’s passion for equipping the body of Christ shines through as he offers hope and clarity, urging believers to reject the divisive lies of CRT and to stand firm in the unchanging truth of God's Word. For anyone concerned about the future of the church and society, this book is an essential resource, providing a clear path back to the gospel and the true justice found in Christ alone.

Endorsements

“I am astonished that you are…turning to a different gospel” (Galatians 1:6). The early church faced the same problems we do today—false teaching that morphs the true gospel into a different gospel altogether, a gospel Paul says isn’t a gospel at all! Wokeism and social justice are some of today’s pervasive false teachings that threaten the church. In this book, Bryan has done a skillful job exposing this compromise and returning Christians to the truth and authority of God’s Word.

Ken Ham — CEO/founder of Answers in Genesis, Creation Museum, and Ark Encounter

Critical Race Theory and its various companions in the “woke” worldview are taking the West by storm, ushering in a new post-Christian era. Bryan has written a gospel-focused, relevant, and enlightening guidebook for the Christian who wants to maintain “transformed” rather than “conformed” thinking (Rom 12:2) in this new world. This is essential knowledge.

Martyn Iles — Answers in Genesis Executive CEO

The underlying agenda of Critical Theory has been sealed behind the moat of obscure jargon and flown under the banner of justice. Inquiries at her towers are promptly restrained by pawns armed with cancel culture. This highly guarded social movement compels the use of “newspeak” wherein any nonconformity is an oppressor’s admission. Osborne’s Woke Injustice carefully extinguishes the heat and defangs the rhetoric of the debate by exposing the unbiblical and ultimately unjust aims of Social Justice. He proves how Scripture offers the only leveling ground, and justification by faith lived out biblically is the only path to any true justice in our lost world.

Joe Owen — AiG Latin America Director and Speaker

Terms like woke, CRT, social justice, equity, etc. fill headlines spelling doom and gloom for those who don’t embrace their supposed reality and live out these new “truths.” Sadly, many Christians have bowed the knee, made apologies, and denied the truth of God’s Word beginning in Genesis. Woke Injustice is a toolbox for Christians to equip them to discern wrong thinking, defend biblical truth, and most importantly speak the truth in love. Bryan unpacks the ideas of the cultural left with clarity and hope pointing to the all-sufficient God and His Word.

A Wonderful Resource
Review by J C
I had heard a lot about CRT, and knew enough to know that it did not align with Biblical values. But I'll admit that as a homeschool mom, I didn't put much more thought into than that. This book really helps break down how CRT is Marxism in different packaging. Even though I'm homeschooling and am in control of my children's curriculum, it is important to be able to answer questions about and defend our positions. Besides, someday my kids are going to have questions about this.
A Biblical Response to CRT
Review by Barbara D
I have often heard of Critical Race Theory and did not fully understand what it was. This book was recommended to me to read as a homeschooling mom with the understanding that in my state I need to teach CRT, but I want to glorify God. This book shows what CRT is and what the Bible has to say about it. It shows how a lot of the words CRT and Christians use are the same words, but different definitions.
It was extremely eye opening and leaving me a bit broken hearted for our lost and divided world that puts their hope in CRT and it's Marxist roots, and not the hope of God.
CRT divides everyone into two groups and pits one against another. One group can do no wrong and the other can only do right. Of course this isn't what the Bible says. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, as is in Romans. We also see how the gospel is for the Jew and the greek and God has no partiality.
CRT is at it's root anti-God. It is another tool Satan uses to divide and distract. CRT can leave me feeling hopeless but God gives me rest, peace, and purpose.
It is not a quick or light read, but a book that no Christian should skip. We need to be aware of the devils lies, especially as a parent before our kids go out into the world with all these lies and terms going at them with different definitions (which are different from dictionaries that we grew up with).
I love how as the book goes through the history of what CRT is, and it's Marxist roots, that there is what the Bible says to each of these points. It is really good to have what the Bible says right there with the lies the world has. I am so glad this book was recommended to me and that I read it.
The book most people don't realize that they need to read
Review by Charity
This is the book that most Christians, especially parents and any one ministering to children, don't realize how badly they need to read. I had hoped that I could simply avoid woke propaganda by picking the right homeschool curriculum, but as we have been learning in our Christ Over Culture book club, another excellent MB title by the way, we as parents need to educate ourselves so that our children are prepared for the ideas and lifestyles they will encounter for the rest of our lives. We need them to be grounded in Gods word as the authority from which we interpret Man's ideas.

The woke agenda and the Marxist construct it is based in, is a systematic and stealthy form of indoctrination that is anti biblical and anti gospel in its treatment of the problem of oppression and inequality. Brian Osborne systmatically exposed many of the faucets of CRT and it's related ideas and holds them up to the truth of scripture. I especially appreciated his comparison of so-called social justice and biblical justice for the oppressed. The ideas sound like they could be made compatible, but biblically they cannot.

Before reading Woke (in) Justice as well as Christ over Culture, I had no clue how much I was being influenced by CRT and how much these ideas have been imbedded in supposedly Christian resources, especially those geared at marriage or church ministries.

I truly hope many will read this book and be "awakened " and equipped to help a lost and dying world to find the true source of hope for the oppressed: the Gospel of Jesus Christ . Christ's work is sufficient and only he can save us from the oppression of sin and the effects of a sin cursed world
I wish everyone would read this!
Review by Michelle
This book is truly amazing. I don't live in America and much of what is seen in CRT as being applied in America is happening across the entire world. I have gained so much insight into alot of what is happening all around us. I believe everyone should read this book. It is truly eye-opening.
Great for understanding CRT
Review by SB
Woke Injustice by Bryan Osborne provides a thorough exploration into what Critical Race Theory is and the divisiveness it creates. Osborne confronts the lies of CRT with Biblical truth. I was encouraged by chapter 16: ‘Fear Not, God’s Word is Sufficient.’ Osborne states: “God is enough. His Word is sufficient. There is literally no better source, no other right source, to use when addressing any issue including the matters of racism, reconciliation, and injustice. Let us make sure that the world is not conforming us to its image or that we are being held hostage by a deceptive philosophy.” Woke Injustice is a must-read for anyone who wants to better understand Critical Race Theory and how to approach it from a Biblical point of view.
Enlightening and Grounded
Review by Michele
The twisting of definitions and attacks masquerading as activism over the past few years have frustrated and confused me. This book plainly explains the framework of Critical Race Theory, Diversity, Equity and Inclusion ideologies and other "woke" principles then compares it to what the Bible says. The content allows for compassion of those who have subscribed to the Marxist-inspired ideals while holding firm to the only source of Truth, the Bible. I was able to listen to the audiobook and appreciated the narrator's calm and cool vocalization to a topic that is typically discussed in a highly charged atmosphere.

One of my favorite parts is dismantling the argument that "Jesus was the original social justice warrior." Again, Osborne uses direct Scripture to highlight the differences between this woke ideology claim and the Biblical context and application of the verses that have been twisted to often guilt Christians to adopt some or all of the deceptive and dangerous doctrine. "Jesus' primary concern was the libration of the oppressed from the systemic oppression of sin ... Jesus and all of Scripture definitely declare that salvation for all individual can only be found in Christ alone."

I absolutely recommend "Woke Injustice" to Christians who are aware of these woke ideologies for deeper clarity and an understanding that can help combat it.
Eye Opening!
Review by Jen
Prior to reading this book, I was aware of what CRT was, how bad it was and how it was being indoctrinated not only to our children but to many people around the world. I was blown away at all of the intricate details that surround it, where it came from and just how sneaky it really is. This is a great read full of information and background surrounding CRT and the reality of how detrimental the implementation of it has been to our country.
A Much Needed Resource for the Christian's Library
Review by Michael
Woke Injustice - A Biblical Response to Critical Race Theory, is a much-needed resource for the Christian’s library. Bryan Osborne does an excellent job communicating the details of CRT and Critical Social Justice (CSJ) topics. Having read other great books on this topic, I think Woke Injustice stands out for providing a more concise discussion about the topic and compressed explanation of the terms (but balanced with thoroughness) surrounding the ideology. Critical Theory (CT) topics can be hard to understand sometimes and there are so many wickets with the topic that it can leave the reader confused and their head spinning. Bryan though presents the topics in a clear way and provides plenty of detail to understand the basics (and then some). I like how Bryan references founders and supporters of CRT directly and analyzes their statements from a Biblical Worldview. I also appreciate references to recent events surrounding CRT. Most importantly, Bryan shows how CRT/CSJ/CT is anti-biblical and how the ideology has no place in a Christian’s life. Bryan shows a better way which is the sufficiency of the Word of God. Bryan presents various scriptures to counter the CRT claims which helps equip the Christian with information to identify the errors of CRT. Bryan does this in a God-honoring and God-loving way. As I think about the things Bryan shared in the book, I can only imagine the types of comments he will receive as he uncovers the truth about CRT. I am thankful Bryan had the courage to write this book and I pray it will be used to help more people understand the dangers of CRT and how to share the truth with grace, love and words seasoned with salt.
Eye opening
Review by Yulia
Woke Injustice is a through book explaining the root of the Critical Race Theory and the divisiveness it brings to our world. The author goes in detail presenting history and foundation of this bias "theory". I already knew a good amount of truth behind this theory, but it was a truly eye opening experience to read this book. This is so needed and so timely especially this time of elections. It's Biblically based and very easy to read. I highly recommend this book.
Timely and meaningful
Review by Dustie
This is such a timely book. It is not a long read, but it is filled to the brim with of biblical wisdom in an age of confusion. The author points the reader back to scripture for answers. He stands on the principles of truth that are presented in scripture to show what real justice and equality is and is not. What a bold call to Christians everywhere wake up and view current events in light of God’s Word rather than man’s! Bryan Osborne presents the beautiful truth that we are all God’s image bearers and that our physical differences are a reflection of the Creator’s vast creativity. All prejudices and racism are a result of sinful pride. I highly recommend this book as a way to equip oneself with truth.
