With all that's been going on, I'm feeling the need to read (and in some cases re-read) a lot of books related to race and its intersections with theology, sociology, and history. So I thought I would invite readers of the blog to join me if they want to.
I'm developing a growing list that will move and change depending on what strikes my fancy. I might also add other areas of intersection (like education), but I'm going to stay in the lanes that I move in the most often. And there will be some fiction thrown in (especially if we're talking about race and history).
The first two books that I will read are going to be "Stand Your Ground: Black Bodies and the Justice of God" by theologian Kelly Brown Douglas and "For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow is Enuf" by Ntozake Shange [this will be a re-read for me]
I'll start reading on Sept. 1. And write as I go along. You are welcome to join me.
