Racial Reconciliation

If we fail to listen to people who don't experience the world the way we do, we will never bear their burden.

- Andy Stanley

Resources

Like most libraries, this is a vast and diverse collection. Some resources focus on historical education. Others are prescriptive, editorial, or fictional narratives. A wide variety of voices are included. Some resources are communicated from a Christian viewpoint, while others are not. All provide opportunities to listen and learn. Each can be a catalyst for change.
