商品描述
This book presents a new vision and strategy for a spiritual antiracism that values diversity, equity, and inclusion. Employing the practice of seeing, choosing, and acting as a framework, it examines the role of Christian spirituality, which includes religious values, interpretations of scripture and tradition, and general concerns with the human soul. Christian spirituality was integral to developing and justifying an ideology of "white" supremacy and Christian spirituality has the potential for resisting and rejecting this same racism. Responding to the very idea of "race," born from the ideology of racism and "white" supremacy, the author shows how to envision and implement a spiritual approach that respects both human dignity and individual distinctiveness. Understanding the fundamental value of human dignity as deeply rooted in the Christian tradition serves as one antidote for other readings of the tradition that can be used to justify oppression and segregation.
This book addresses those interested in leadership in challenging times buffeted by issues of racism, privilege, and power in our communities, workplaces, and lives. It will appeal to those who are seeking how to lead within the tensions of these times with fresh approaches to questions of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
這本書提出了一個新的願景和策略,以實踐一種重視多樣性、公平和包容的精神反種族主義。採用「觀察、選擇和行動」作為框架,它探討了基督教靈性的角色,包括宗教價值觀、對聖經和傳統的解釋,以及對人類靈魂的普遍關注。基督教靈性在發展和證明「白人」至上主義的意識形態方面起著重要作用,同時也有抵制和拒絕這種種族主義的潛力。作者回應了種族的概念,這種概念源於種族主義和「白人」至上主義的意識形態,並展示了如何構想和實施一種尊重人的尊嚴和個體獨特性的精神方法。深深根植於基督教傳統的人的尊嚴的基本價值,可以作為對其他對傳統的解讀的解藥,這些解讀可能被用來證明壓迫和隔離。
這本書針對那些對在我們的社區、工作場所和生活中受到種族主義、特權和權力問題影響的挑戰時的領導感興趣的人。它將吸引那些希望在這些時代的緊張氛圍中以新的方法回答多樣性、公平和包容問題的人。
