Faith-Rooted Organizing draws from the roots of our traditions to help faith communities engage the larger movement for justice in our world. In this workshop, Lisa Sharon Harper will equip participants to analyze their community, strategize, build collaborative networks, and take action inspired by their faith!
As the U.S. transitions to the next presidential administration, there are a lot of reasons to throw up our hands and give up. But we cannot. Now is not the time for hopelessness. Now is the time for faith. Faith in God. Faith in the Jesus ethic. Faith in our power to actually be the body of Christ in our neighborhoods and cities and nation.
Now is the time to dig deep and grab hold of the same faith that took Fannie Lou Hamer from sharecropping in Mississippi to the Democratic Convention in Atlantic City. We need the faith that sustained young John Lewis from the Freedom Rides to the Edmund Pettus Bridge. We need the faith of Margaretta Forten and Elizabeth Cady Stanton and Sojourner Truth. We need thick faith right now.
But it is not enough for us to learn from those who have gone before us in the U.S. We are entering new terrain. For that we must also turn to our brothers and sisters whose faith-soaked actions won their fights against authoritarian governments.
It’s time to get ready.
