This book explores the religious thought and activism that shaped the late twentieth century, focusing on Black men from the major Black denominations. However, it fails to account for the voices of those who challenged racism and also confronted class and gender. Among these overlooked voices, Pauli Murray (1910–1985) stands out as a significant figure. Murray was a nonbinary Black lawyer, activist, poet, and Episcopal priest who influenced icons such as Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Thurgood Marshall.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAnthony B. Pinn has collected Murrays most important sermons, lectures, and speeches from 1960 through 1985 in this book. It showcases her religious thought and activism, as well as her original and compassionate literary voice. Pinn's collection highlights major themes in Murray's writing, such as the strength and rights of women, faithfulness, religious community, and suffering. It reveals the evolution in Murray's religious ideas and her sense of ministry, unpacking her role in a tumultuous period of American history and her thriving legacy.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book is a valuable resource for scholars, activists, and anyone interested in understanding the intersection of religion, social justice, and gender in twentieth-century America. Murray's writings provide a unique perspective on these issues and continue to inspire and challenge readers today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 750g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 166 x 247 x 30 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780300268065\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pauli Murray","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44594731778298,"sku":"9780300268065","price":23.8,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1696002984191_book.jpg?v=1696054142","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/to-speak-a-defiant-word-sermons-and-speeches-on-justice-and-transformation-9780300268065","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
