  15. CW: Anti-Black Racism, Violence

    A Rhode Island man has admitted to using gasoline to set several fires around the exterior of a predominantly Black church earlier this year, according to a federal plea agreement.

    Prosecutors said Kevin Colantonio set several fires around the exterior of the Shiloh Gospel Temple early February 11 in North Providence after purchasing a lighter and gasoline.

    ...

    Zachary Cunha, US Attorney for the District of Rhode Island, said at the time of Colantonio’s arrest that a search of his home turned up notebooks and writings that included phrases like “burn churches down to the ground,” “hunt them down,” and “gun everyone down who isn’t White.”

    The plea agreement, which was filed in federal court last week, states that Colantonio intentionally targeted the church because of the “actual or perceived race, color, religion, national origin, and/or ethnicity of the congregants.”

    Most of the Pentecostal congregation, which has been established for about 35 years, is Black and African American, according to investigators.

  16. Best part of the article: Senator Natale L. Urso, bill sponsor, says "'Every adherent of a religious group must expect to make certain sacrifices, to endure certain hardships, if he is to cling steadfastly to his religious precepts. But this state should not put its stamp of approval either through tax exemption or through scholarship grants upon those who violate the spirit of religious tolerance upon which this state was founded." #religiousTolerance #religiousDiversity #RI #rhodeIsland #brown
