| Title: A Legacy of Faith and Justice |
| Sub-title: Pan African Advocacy and Leadership for Ending Hunger |
| Edited by: Angelique Walker-Smith |
| ISBN10-13: 1961088266 : 9781961088269 |
Pan-African communities are disproportionately affected by the devastating challenges of hunger and poverty, yet these communities have risen with remarkable faith and resilience to advocate for justice and equity. A Legacy of Faith and Justice sheds light on the untold stories of Pan-African people of faith in the global fight to end hunger. Through vivid storytelling, A Legacy of Faith and Justice highlights Pan-African leaders and their critical role in developing and implementing practices and policies to eradicate hunger. Author Angelique Walker-Smith reveals the passion, leadership, and unwavering determination of these leaders often overlooked in ecumenical and social narratives. She calls attention to their enduring faith as a catalyst for transformation, offering readers valuable lessons on unity, perseverance, and the power of hope. The book also provides a way forward with contributions on contextual and policy trends that advance the agenda of ending hunger, especially in Pan-African communities. This is more than a historical accountâ it's a call to action. Celebrating five decades of impact through Bread for the World, A Legacy of Faith and Justice challenges us to honor this legacy by reimagining and renewing our commitment to a future without hunger. Essential reading for advocates, faith leaders, and anyone seeking inspiration to fight for a more just and equitable world. |

| Title: Seeking to be Christian in Race Relations |
| By (author): Benjamin E. Mays |
| ISBN10-13: 1961088045 : 9781961088047 |
"It is probably easier to be Christian in any other area of life than it is in the area of race. Here the practice of the Christian religion seems to break down most completely." These words of prophetic judgment ground Mays's attempt to set down a Christian basis for the elimination of prejudice and discrimination. Reflecting on both the Old and New Testaments, Mays reads in the plain sense of scripture a call for us to live together in harmony and justice. He also draws from the Universal Declaration of Human Rights to emphasize the broader context of the work. |
