A Catholic Witness Against Racism, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Equip Catholic institutions with tools drawn from tradition to dismantle racism in actionable ways.

Many Catholic institutions are realizing that they want to make positive changes in areas connected to race and racism. Gathered from the insights of scholars and ministers leading these efforts in the Church and world, A Catholic Witness Against Racism equips Catholic institutions with distinctive tools drawn from Catholic tradition to dismantle racism in actionable ways.

The contributors to A Catholic Witness Against Racismilluminate new ways of thinking and acting about racism through a variety of cultural perspectives that reflect the many experiences of racism in the United States, how to be a better Catholic ally, the role of liturgy and music, fruitful examples of witness and formation (from the role of religious sisters to the development of #BlackCatholicsSyllabus), and more. The thoughtful questions that close each chapter offer practical reflection for those looking to stand as faithful witnesses against racism in parishes, schools, dioceses, and other Catholic institutions. In this engaging volume, readers will discover that the journey towards racial justice, while often frustrating and intense, is good news rooted in God's promise.
