Check out this moving scene that was captured on Saturday in Cary, North Carolina where, during BLM demonstrations, a handful of white folks came together to clean the feet of black religious leaders, while offering a prayer repenting for the sins inflicted on black people at large.
In a video shared online by Fabiola Doissaint, the white members of the community are seen cleaning the feet of black religious leaders, there's one man with a megaphone leading the prayer, and he acknowledges there's one race of people, going on to ask for forgiveness for their white ancestors enslaving, mistreating and oppressing African-Americans.

It was a surprising, yet moving sight to see and also very Christ-like. In a week filled with all kinds of images of police run-ins with protesters both good and bad this one might say the most about the nation's desire for change.
