Reparations – A Christian Call for Repentance and Repair

Autor Duke L. Kwon, Gregory Thompson
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 8 dec 2022
"A book for this moment"

Christians are awakening to the legacy of racism in America like never before. Reparations explores the church's responsibility for the deep racial brokenness at the heart of American culture, investigates the Bible's call to repair it, and offers a vision for the work of reparation at the local level.

"Reparations is a book for this moment. It is a call to action to offer tangible restitution for the historic exploitation of Black labor. While Christians should have been leading the way on this all along, sadly, too many have demonstrated compromise and complicity instead. A timely call for reparations and the dignity of all people."
--Jemar Tisby, CEO of The Witness Inc.; author of the bestselling book The Color of Compromise

"Reparations is passionate, clear, smart, thoughtful, and blessedly troubling. I hope every American Christian leader--especially White Christian leaders--will read it because it is truly the rare book that, if taken up with an open heart, has the potential to change the world."
--Tish Harrison Warren, Anglican priest; author of Liturgy of the Ordinary and Prayer in the Night

"This book should be essential reading in classrooms and Bible studies, in religious sanctuaries and the halls of Congress, and for every single believer who cares about justice and equality."
--Joshua DuBois, CEO, media commentator, and former director, White House Office of Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships

"What hope do we have of racial reconciliation unless we right the wrongs of our past? Kwon and Thompson have argued convincingly that reparations is a necessary part of the healing of our churches and our nation, and that people of faith should be leading the way. Read this book and learn how to be a bridge builder for reparations."
--Latasha Morrison, founder of Be the Bridge and New York Times bestselling author of Be the Bridge: Pursuing God's Heart for Racial Reconciliation

"Kwon and Thompson do a compelling job of laying out the historic legitimacy, the moral necessity, and the biblical urgency for reparations from slavery. American Christians, especially those of us who are White, should read, internalize, and act upon these arguments with our whole being."
--Mark Labberton, president, Fuller Theological Seminary
