I began reading AND listening to “The Spirit of Justice.” As someone who greatly appreciates history I find Dr. Tisby’s approach scholarly and enlightening. Thank you for giving us the 400+ year backdrop to the transatlantic slave trade and oppression of Africans once in the Americas. As in “The Color of Compromise: The Truth about the American Church's Complicity in Racism,” the church contributed to the political motivations to keep enslavement legal. In our present times, “The Spirit of Justice” serves as both a reminder and warning about how we should live out our lives as Jesus followers. Thank you, Dr. Tisby!

I'm a Kindle reader, too! The PaperWhite version. So much easier to hold than a book sometimes. :-)

Happy "Book Release" Day! So interesting to read about how the book's title came to be. Can't wait to get mine in the mail.

Being present in that moment with Myrlie Evers-Williams was a core memory for me!
