SUMMARY:Ancestral Wisdom: For the Struggle for Liberation-Lecture Series at Pullen Memorial Baptist Church
DESCRIPTION:This year’s lecture series\, Ancestral Wisdom: For the Struggle for Liberation\, features Dr. Sarah Azaransky\, Associate Professor of Social Ethics at Union Theological Seminary in New York City. \nOver the two days\, she will lecture on the themes of her most recent book\, This Worldwide Struggle.  Read more about Dr. Azaransky HERE. \nSchedule of Events \nDay 1: Friday\, April 4 — 7-9 pm in Finlator Hall (Book Talk and Reception) \nDr. Sarah Azaransky will discuss her latest book\, This Worldwide Struggle: Religion and the International Roots of the Civil Rights Movement. It identifies a network of Black Christian intellectuals and activists who looked abroad (including in other religious traditions) for ideas and practices that could transform American democracy. From the 1930s to the 1950s\, they drew lessons from independence movements around the world for an American racial justice campaign. The book reveals fertile intersections of worldwide resistance movements\, American racial politics\, and interreligious exchanges that crossed literal borders and disciplinary boundaries. \nA complimentary reception will follow. \nDay 2: Saturday. April 5 — 10 am-1:30 pm in Finlator Hall \nDr. Azaransky will offer some reflections. An interfaith panel will follow featuring Latifat Odetunde\, Hima Thaker\, Bianca Richardson\, and Caleb Panton. The discussion will center on how our movements for justice today might draw from the spiritual wisdom of the ancestors in Dr. Azaransky’s work — including Bayard Rustin\, Pauli Murray\, Howard Thurman\, and Martin Luther King Jr. \nThis event is co-sponsored by RCWMS & Pauli Murray Center for History and Social Justice. \nCost: $5 (donation)\, $10 (includes lunch)\, $15 (sponsor a lunch). \nRegister for Saturday : HERE \nLearn more: HERE \nContact: news@pullen.org
