A Thought - Provoking perspective on Race and Religion - Paperback

by Gene Heil (Author)

Gene Heil's most recent book A Perspective on Race and Religion sheds light on a controversial issue concerning the silence of the church on racism, and opens a thought-provoking perspective designed to open discussion of the topic within religious communities. Heil's personal experience of trauma associated with beatings he received from men in the Black community had the potential to destroy any favorable constructs of Black people, but through the power of God, and availing himself to understanding a culture abused by the dominate society for generations, he witnessed a different perspective. God taught him to forgive his oppressors and to blend into the Black community. It's a tremendous story of love, forgiveness and racial unity.
