Our diocese and the Diocese of California voted last year to make Howard Thurman a saint in our church. This summer the General Convention of The Episcopal Church will vote on adding him to our calendar of saints. His book was first published in 1949, and has been formational to generations of Christians, as well as civil rights leaders.
“Jesus and the Disinherited is a brilliant and compassionate look at God’s work in our lives… [It] is an important and influential book whose message helped shape the civil rights movement and changed our nation’s history forever. Thurman’s work reaches past anger and distrust toward a vision of unity.” -from the book’s back cover
