In reply to the discussion: "Sometimes I wish I could try on white skin" [View all]ChazII
(6,204 posts)17. Touched by an Angel
had an episode that guest starred Rosa Parks. God transformed Monica from a white Irish angel into a black Irish angel for her to understand what Rosa Parks went through. Towards the end of the show Monica is being chased through the woods as two white men are going to kill this black woman. Monica prayed and was changed back to her white skin. The powerful moment in the show is when she apologized to Rosa Parks for her prayer was 'let me be white again.' Yes, this is fiction but it was a powerful episode especially when Rosa Parks forgave Monica.
