The Church and the Racial Divide: Reflections of an African American Catholic Bishop

by Edward K. Bishop Braxton

Overview

The only Catholic bishop who has consistently written on race matters, Bishop Braxton begins this timely book with a probing personal introduction in which he describes his family's history and his experience as an African American that he brought to his ministry as a Catholic priest and bishop. In speeches, homilies, and pastoral letters--in some cases prompted by police shootings and the Black Lives Matter movement--he lays out a vision of healing for the church and the nation, informed by a quest for conversion, justice, and reconciliation.
