Cornel West on Race in the Church and Society

March 2, 2009 by Tripp Fuller 3 Comments

Jamie Moffett just posted a great series of videos featuring Cornel West discussing race in the church and society. I have been a West fan since reading his famous book ‘Prophecy Deliverance,’ so if you dig these videos check the book out.

    Tripp,

    Thought this was greatness. I may be in the minority of my friends – but I think what he says is greatness (and true to boot).

    A few things that stood out…

    “The black freedom struggle is the best example of bringing together the quest for unarmed truth and unconditional love in the face of American Terrorism for 400 years. Instead of a Black al-Qaeda you get Frederick Douglas and Martin Luther.”

    I also appreciated how he talked about the difference between Jeremiah Wright and Martin Luther King – showing how King mixed love throughout his message.

    Thanks for sharing these! I hope others will take the time to watch them as well.
