Description
A practical guide for churches seeking to address systemic racism and implement reparations plans. This book provides spiritual resources and practical tools for dioceses and institutions looking to take action. Written by a white priest who has served an historically Black congregation, it draws on the counsel of Black scholars, activists, and Christians to show how restitution can be made a reality through honest fact-finding, truth-telling, and focused engagement. The book offers examples of steps being taken by congregations across the country and provides a framework for churches to support local, Black-led organizations working on economic empowerment. All royalties from this title go to Harriet's Wildest Dreams, a Black-led abolitionist community defense hub centering all Black lives at risk for state-sanctioned violence. By exploring ways to make restitution a reality, this guide aims to help Christians seize this crucial moment and work towards a more just and equitable society.
