Remnants – A Memoir of Spirit, Activism, and Mothering

Autor Rosemarie Freeney Harding, Rachel Elizabet Harding
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 14 mai 2015
An activist influential in the civil rights movement, Rosemarie Freeney Harding s spirituality blended many traditions, including southern African American mysticism, Anabaptist Christianity, Tibetan Buddhism, and Afro-Brazilian Candomble. Remnants, a multigenre memoir, demonstrates how Freeney Harding's spiritual life and social justice activism were integral to the instincts of mothering, healing, and community-building. Following Freeney Harding s death in 2004, her daughter Rachel finished this decade-long collaboration, using recorded interviews, memories of her mother, and her mother's journal entries, fiction, and previously published essays."
