Howard Thurman writes in the book Jesus and the Disinherited, “What Christianity (or any faith community) has to offer to people who stand with their backs against the wall.” He answers by drawing on the teachings of Jesus, the experience of the oppressed, and nonviolent responses to oppression. Although written in 1949, this piece offers a challenge and a message for today. Join us this Sunday and on March 8 for a discussion of the movie Backs Against the Wall.
