This groundbreaking book is unique in connecting everyday theology to injustices across a broad spectrum of inequities and subjugations. The individual voices in the collection are absolutely critical today as totalizing oligarchies and exclusion of difference take over national and international politics. A powerful refusal of evil through the dogged pursuit of goodness.
