Black Spirituality & Black Liberation Webinar

Spirituality has always been relevant to the quest for Black freedom. But sometimes the relationship between the two is complicated by Christian traditions influenced by colonization.

In this webinar, New York Times bestselling author of This Here Flesh, Cole Arthur Riley, and bestselling author of All the White Friends I Couldn’t Keep, Andre Henry discuss how their books and work engage that crucial intersection of racial justice.

This webinar is hosted by the Racial Justice Institute of Christians for Social Action. CSA’s Racial Justice Institute develops a variety of learning experiences (pilgrimages, courses, media, writing, video, etc.) that engage people of faith around issues of identity, history and justice at the intersection of race as a social issue. By gathering communities to journey together, to learn, RJI creates brave spaces to go deep to understand the roots of racism.
