"...an impassioned call for solidarity and unity in a time of political and social uncertainty."-Santa Barbara Independent"I dare you to open this book and take a journey filled with border crossings. At times this journey will make you cry over our silence and blindness to intolerance, but all along the way, you will discover love and be filled with hope. Without finger wagging, David's unvarnished history helps us connect the dots of our nation's complicity in oppression. David invites me--a person of white privilege--into his world knowing we are all in this together. Standing in this strange new world of 2017, David calls the Christian community to join with all people of good faith or no faith to be bridge builders and not wall builders."-The Rev. Mark E. Asman, Rector Emeritus, Trinity Episcopal Church, Santa Barbara
From the Inside Flap
"Every 'woke' white person I know has truth-telling African-American friends to thank for their awakening. No one speaks the truth in love better than David Moore does. What could the world be like if all white Americans had such trusty friends?In this book, David Moore tells the story of his personal journey with religion and race, getting to the heart of our differences and their influence on the culture around us. Christians share a common symbol system, but we are divided because we interpret our symbols in radically different ways. Because David Moore has lived on both sides of the Christian divide, he is able to shine a light which is simultaneously compassionate and critical, and as he tells us who he is: a human being, not a loser, a skeptic, all in for Jesus, a global citizen, ashamed, and not who you think he is.Read this book, grow in understanding, and help to heal the world!"- THE REVEREND CARREN SHELDON, Interim Rector, Episcopal Church of St. Martin, Davis, California
