Amen

This first book by Dominique Dubois Gilliard (second was Subversive Witness) is a good and informative effort on a difficult subject, but it would have been even more powerful with some good editing. This Christian spin on systemic racism and the cancer it causes societally hit the mark, and there were some worthwhile passages and insights, but too much real estate was taken up by rehashing other books' messaging. I'm all for a reference, but I felt as if I were re-reading the originals a little too often. Aside from that, there was more than a little clean-up that needed to happen and got missed. He's a good author, though, with a powerful message. I would recommend as an overview for those who have not read a lot on this topic.
