Much has transpired in the half-century since, and progress has been made in the issues that were close to Dr. King's heart. Thankfully, the burning crosses, biting police dogs, and angry mobs of that day are long gone. But in their place, passivity has emerged. A passivity that must be addressed. That's the aim of Letters to a Birmingham Jail. A collection of essays written by men of various ethnicities and ages, this book encourages us to pursue Christ exalting diversity. Each contribution recognizes that only the cross and empty tomb of Christ can bring true unity, and each notes that the gospel demands justice in all its forms. This was a truth that Dr. King fought and gave his life for, and this is a truth that these modern day "drum majors for justice" continue to beat.--Publisher 600 10 $a King, Martin Luther, $c Jr., $d 1929-1968. $t Letter from Birmingham Jail. 630 07 $a Letter from Birmingham Jail (King, Martin Luther, Jr.) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01937969 650 7 $a Cultural pluralism $x Christianity. $x Christianity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02016325 650 0 $a Social justice $z United States $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Cultural pluralism $z United States $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Multiculturalism $z United States $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Church and minorities $z United States. 650 0 $a Christian sociology $z United States. 650 0 $a Christianity and politics $z United States. 651 0 $a United States $x Race relations. 651 0 $a United States $x Ethnic relations. 651 0 $a United States $x Religion. 650 7 $a RELIGION / Christian Ministry. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Christian sociology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00859530 650 7 $a Christianity and politics. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00859736 650 7 $a Church and minorities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00860489 650 7 $a Ethnic relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00916005 650 7 $a Multiculturalism $x Christianity. $x Christianity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01028850 650 7 $a Race relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01086509 650 7 $a Religion. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01093763 650 7 $a Social justice $x Christianity. $x Christianity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01767768 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 700 1 $a Loritts, Bryan C., $e editor. 941 $a 2 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718091709.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20210824012148.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BB20BFFE04A011EC84DF9CAF2EECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
