Religion, Race, and Justice in a Changing America     Email    Printer-Friendly
Gary Orfield, Holly J. Lebowitz, Century Foundation Press, 9/1/1999
Explores the changing nature of civil rights initiatives, which has led to a more complex relationship between religion and civil rights in modern America, and takes stock of how various religious leaders and their followers now perceive their role in promoting civil rights. The authors look back at the civil rights tradition and offer new insights from diverse religious communities, including Protestant denominations, Jewish groups, evangelical organizations, and Islamic and Buddhist groups. This volume of essays begins the process by setting forth the larger contexts in which the various religious traditions and understandings are placed. Developed in conjunction with the Civil Rights Project at Harvard University.
