Great story about Baldwin v. Buckley, and incredibly powerful clip. “I am stating very seriously, and this is not an overstatement, I picked the cotton, and I carried it to market, and I built the railroads, under someone else’s whip, for nothing. For nothing.” 
 

Just what it says: A graphic representation of "How the nation’s growing racial diversity is changing our schools".

 

Why are books that shape?  An interesting story, well told here.  

 

A solid piece about racial reparations, and what can be done to close the black/white weath gap, which is huge.     

 

Finally, some real "public theology" here in Charlottesville.  Maybe we need to imagine "public theology" when we have a real "public" in mind--one with people we can actually name, and whom I, for one, know.
