The Intersection of Racism & Redemption
Bu sesli kitap hakkında
The Intersection of Racism & Redemption powerfully reaffirms the truth of forgiveness and reconciliation as a means of restoring us to one another, because racism, after all, is a matter of the heart. In the face of so much injustice being perpetuated upon Americans of all colors in our land today, this story will inspire readers to fight for justice and expand its reach to all people in our country—not only people of color.
It is the author's hope that taking a journey with him though his experiences in the Jim Crow South will enlighten you to see through the misconceptions, inherited beliefs, and deep-ceded wounds that are at the root of the moral, social, and spiritual paralysis we know as racism.
Open the book and let the author show you how he came to find a supernatural, liberating power and the freedom to think differently about himself and others.
