Race and/or the Christian Identity?
All Christians share a place in the intersectionality of faith and race, but these identities need not be subject to an “either-or” debate.

God Loves Hip-Hop
Hip-hop will never be a “perfect” platform for God’s message because humans will never be “perfect” vessels for God’s message, yet many of its musicians recognize their God-given blessings and brokenness and are excited to project them into the musical world.

Black Families and Labor Markets in the Post-Reconstruction Era

Politics: Where Do We Go From Here?
At its root, politics is not even really about addressing the latest national controversy or advancing a particular agenda, but about bringing us together as citizens to do what we can’t do on our own.

Do Ethnic Communities Have a Place in Christianity?
When I was exposed to different faith traditions and practices in college, I found myself doubting aspects of my home church that I had previously been so fond of.

Forgiveness and Justice
We do not forgive because we seek to appease white America who feels guilt and shame for not speaking out that black lives matter.

Impetus
I see a nation inundated with injustice, yet a Church that is silent.

Starting at the Beginning of Justice
As God made it good, we are charged in that way to seek and uphold the good in our aspirations for justice in all of its expressions on our campus – economic justice, environmental justice, and social justice.

Experiencing Christ Across Cultures
I quickly became familiar with how starkly the cultures of England and Ghana differ from one another, almost as much as the perceptions of Jesus and the way people practice their faith do.

Breaking Christians’ Silence on Racism
In the wake of Michael Brown’s shooting in August 2014, there was a noticeable dearth of active, grassroots Christian involvement in the racial conversation in Ferguson, Missouri and the rest of the United States.
