Connecting justice and religious education in the Black experience. From Lament to Advocacy reveals the vital connection between justice and religious education within the Black experience, offering both theological depth and practical wisdom for ministry today. This resource presents a public theology of religious education that moves from reflection to action--addressing the profound injustices and wounds experienced by Black communities. Beginning with the often-overlooked practice of lament, this book guides readers through critical reflection on faith, leadership, and life amid today's complex social and political landscape. Whether readers serve within church walls or beyond them, they'll discover theology, theory, and pedagogies that nurture participation in our common life. From Lament to Advocacy bridges the false divide between personal piety and public faith, providing practical tools and models for religious educators to engage Black religious education and public theology. Learn how justice movements relate to religious education and find clear connections for processing, responding to, and supporting public movements. Cultivate the skills, spiritual guidance, and partnerships needed to shape both transformed individuals and a more just public arena. Contributors include: Joseph V. Crockett, Sarah F. Farmer, Annie Lockhart-Gilroy, Cynthia P. Stewart, Nathaniel D. West, Nancy Lynne Westfield, Richelle B. White, Anne E. Streaty Wimberly, and Mary H. Young. Essential reading for scholars and practitioners committed to connecting faith formation with the pursuit of justice.
