Overview
From the winner of The President Joseph R. Biden Lifetime Achievement Award, a spiritual guide to restoring yourself from racial trauma with moving stories of historical significance, now in paperback.
In her previous work as Executive Director of the Absalom Jones Center for Racial Healing, Meeks fought tirelessly to shed light on racism and provide tools and experiences to enable faith communities to work to combat it. A public speaker, expert in the media, and honored advocate of social change, she holds a unique place in the dialogue on dismantling racism. In this book, she shares powerful personal experiences that leave the reader breathless and profound insights from her lifelong journey through contemporary history and national events. She offers a much-needed meditative guide for the weary and frustrated, arguing that by looking inward and at each other clearly and with honesty, good people of all backgrounds can forge a long term and individual path to making a difference. With thoughtful direction, she takes the reader on the trajectory from self-awareness to recognition of the past to a new and individual way forward.
Meditation topics include how to work through fear and rage, how stories can destroy but can also help heal, honoring your ancestors while looking toward the future, what it really means to love one another and the true meaning of social justice.
"Readers will be challenged and changed by this moving work.” —Publishers Weekly
