Didn't they do this already?

Apparently not. I suppose a statement on environmentalism is better than one on the European Union or nationalism or economics, but don't they have something more important to preach to non-Christians?

Divine Grace for the Healing of Bigotry

"As America is embroiled in a severe crisis of racism sparked by the protests of white supremacists in Charlottesville..."

Did he think of verifying this claim put forth by the MSM before repeating it?

or they will play into the hands of the SJWs. They should focus on integrating with historic American peoples instead of acting like civic nationalists in service of the state.

The Future of Christianity in Europe?

The Future of the Apostolic Churches in the U.S.

While they may not embrace alt right philosophy any time soon, it seems to me that the Russian jurisidctions (Russian, ROCOR, OCA), are probably the least likely of all the Byzantine churches in the United States to become converged on questions of migration and multiculturalism. The OCA may be more open to inculturation while the other jurisdictions remain more ethnic but they, unlike the Greeks and some of the other slaves, do not make noise about the United States needing to show "compassion" or "charity" and allow more migrants in. (I don't recall any recent statements about "racism," either.)

Similarly, one would think that the Oriental Orthodox Churches and the Assyrian Church, with their long history of subjugation to Muslim invaders, would be especially sensitive to these questions, but they seem to have been encouraged to not assimilate or integrate into mainstream [white] American society. It seems that they will remain ethnic churches for some time. They may advocate for allowing Christian "refugees" from the Near and Middle East into the US, but I don't think they will extend this advocacy to Muslims. (I could be wrong.)
