Requirements: .ePUB reader, 1.8 Mb
Overview: It’s possible to be faithful in the public square without joining the culture war. In fact, there’s a model. The Black church’s social action tradition has long rejected the idea that overcoming polarization means moral compromise. Its historic public witness has defied the culture war’s demands to treat opponents as enemies.
In his new book, Don’t Let Nobody Turn You Around, AND Campaign co-founder and president Justin Giboney explores a compelling vision of how the Black Church’s social action tradition can inspire hope and healing in the face of today’s polarized culture wars. The spirituals of the Black church, such as “Don’t Let Nobody Turn You Around,” were rallying cries during the Civil Rights movement, making clear the connection between faith and justice during marches and protests. These songs encapsulated the unwavering faith and resilience of the Black church, propelling ongoing advocacy for justice in the public square, rooted firmly in the Black church’s powerful public expression of faith.
Centered on faith, justice, and moral imagination, Don’t Let Nobody Turn You Around offers a blueprint for public witness that rises above division without compromising Christian values. Giboney thoughtfully examines the principles, motives, and accomplishments of the Black Church’s legacy, calling all Christians to a courageous and faithful engagement in the public square. This book challenges assumptions on both the Left and Right, presenting a bold model for how social justice and moral order can work together while resisting the demands of polarization and enmity.
