Enduring Hope: Ethnographic Insights into Long-Term Racial Justice AdvocacyMany White Christians feel convicted when they hear of racial injustice but arent sure what they can do. They often become overwhelmed by deep divisions, conflicting priorities, and historical burdens. They need a clearer vision for engagement with racial justice and reconciliation that goes beyond easy answers or simplistic optimism. Isnt there anyone who has found a way forward?Anthropologist Christine Jeske has studied precisely this question. Her one-of-a-kind research started by asking people of color about their work and experience with White advocates of racial justice. She then studied the postures, ideas, and actions of those they recommended as positive examples.In Racial Justice for the Long Haul, Jeske presents her findings on what makes for an effective, enduring approach, revealing shared threads in the lives of White Christians who have faithfully embraced the call to advocate for justice. By abandoning simplistic answers and confronting the depths of suffering and injustice, they discover a bold way of hope that perseveres. This book features a unique methodology of interviews with Christian leaders of color and White advocates makes qualitative ethnographic research accessible, and provides concrete examples of how White Christians can growand persistin working for racial justice. This book invites readers to engage deeply, reflect thoughtfully, and grow authentically as allies in the work of racial justice. White Christians must learn the nature of true hope as they encounter the depths of injustice and of lamentand of grace. Racial Justice for the Long Haul offers the clarity, inspiration, and tools needed to persevere in the pursuit of a more just world.

During the Civil War, when Ernie OMalley lay under sentence of death in Mountjoy prison hospital, some of his notes were smuggled out. Most of all, he wrote, I would have liked to talk about the rank and file where I found solace. Raids and Rallies, an account of various offensives against the British in 1920 21, is his tribute to that rank and file. It was a peoples war. That is why we fought so well from November 1920.What helps to make these memoirs notable is that OMalley writes more than a documentary in his constant awareness of nature in the background. Sunday Press;Entrancing reading for those who seek an insight into the mentality of the men who took on the might of the British Empire. Sunday Independent;Where OMalley differs from virtually all others who have published their recollections of those years is that he was a writer and an intellectual who was constantly weighing and analysing all that was happening.

Join the dance of North American Indigenous interpretations of Christian ScriptureIn Reading the Bible on Turtle Island, Indigenous scholars Chris Hoklotubbe and Danny Zacharias explore what it means to read the Bible from the lens of Indigenous peoples in North America. Exploring the intersection of Scripture, Cultural Traditions, Hearts and Minds, and Creation, they affirm Creators presence with Indigenous people since the beginning. By recovering these rich histories, this book offers a fresh reading of Scripture that celebrates the assets, blessings, and insights of Indigenous interpretation.Indigenous culture has often been dismissed or deemed problematic within Western Christian circles, and historical practices have often communicated that Indigenous worldviews have little to offer the church or its understanding of Scripture. Hoklotubbe and Zacharias challenge this perspective, reasserting the dignity of these cultures that were condemned through colonial practices and showing how Indigenous interpretations bring invaluable insights to all of Gods people.In Reading the Bible on Turtle Island, Hoklotubbe and Zacharias: Affirm the dignity and value of Indigenous cultures and their contributions to hermeneutics. Explore the intersection of the Bible with Indigenous traditions. Delve deeply into the stories of Scripture alongside the complex histories of Indigenous communities in North America. Celebrate the unique blessings and insights of Indigenous interpretation. Offer a fresh, transformative reading of the Bible that speaks to all of Gods people. Reading the Bible on Turtle Island is a vital resource for scholars who are interested in the intersection of biblical studies and social location, who are seeking to explore Scripture through an Indigenous hermeneutic, or who desire to learn more about the contributions of Indigenous worldviews to Biblical interpretation.
