Christians were deeply culpable of perpetuating slavery—and now they are making
the case for reparations. Sojourners magazine solicited this essay months ago, but it’s especially timely now. “For
faith communities, reparations must not be only an effort to compensate for past
harms, they must also chart a pathway to a just future,” writes Rev. Kelly Brown
Douglas in Sojourners’ July 2020 cover story. “Otherwise, reparations become little more than a salve
for white guilt while the sin of white supremacy continues to thrive.”

Now you can order a subscription to Sojourners and receive a FREE copy of Jim Wallis' book America's Original Sin: Racism, White Privilege,
and the Bridge to a New America
[[link removed]] , of which Just Mercy author Bryan Stevenson says, “Jim Wallis has been speaking truth to power for
decades. This….is timely, urgent, and necessary.”

Every month Sojourners offers in-depth commentary on our call to live out Jesus’ mandate to stand in
solidarity with all who are oppressed. This includes those suffering from the
COVID-19 pandemic, those abused at the hands of people sworn to serve and
protect, and all other souls at the heart of important justice issues.

a long time for this book. I have been waiting for a white, male, evangelical

inimitable way, invites us into a conversation...that is long overdue.”
