Description: Crowned with Glory How Proclaiming the Truth of Black Dignity Has Shaped American History by Jasmine L. Holmes A Black educator and podcaster offers an enlightening and inspirational look at Black Christians from American history and how their understanding that each human bears the image of God shaped their faith, the abolitionist movement, and American and church history. FORMAT Paperback CONDITION Brand New Publisher Description America was founded on the concept of the innate and inalienable rights of humankind. Many Christians see an echo of the imago Dei--that every human being carries the image of God--within those ideals. Yet these rights were systemically withheld from the Black and enslaved residents of this country for centuries. Through it all, Black people have proclaimed the truth of their dignity and personhood in powerful and profound ways. Crowned with Glory collects many of the writings of these men and women, both familiar and lesser-known, to shine a light on what has always been there: an enormous movement of Black Americans demanding the liberty they were promised and deserved. With moving and insightful reflections on these oft-forgotten or suppressed voices, author Jasmine L. Holmes offers a hopeful and encouraging testament to the power of unrelenting cries for justice that will strike a chord with anyone looking for a robust Christian history of resistance.
