Description: This book is an essential chronicle of the National Conference on Religion and Race convened in 1963 to examine the role of religious institutions in the fight for racial equality. The conference was convened by the National Council of Churches, the Synagogue Council of America, and the National Catholic Welfare Conference, with sixty-seven additional religious and religiously identified groups participating. The conference marked a turning point in the religious community's engagement with the Civil Rights Movement and the broader social issues of the time. The essays presented in the book by theologians, clergy, and leading figures in the Civil Rights Movement, including Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., provide a historical and intellectual context for the conference. While the book focuses on the specific challenges faced by religious institutions in addressing racial injustice, its broader themes of religious and social justice remain relevant in today's world, offering insights into the role of faith communities in fostering positive social change.
