Session Abstract
In his important book, Existential Togetherness: Toward a Common Black Religious Heritage, Professor DeWayne Stallworth first explores the shared experience of slavery that connected African American people of widely diverse backgrounds, then turns his attention to the difficulties of maintaining such unity under the threat of white supremacy as experienced through the systematic structures of both white and black privilege.
