Black faith is transformative and transcends. It’s what empowers us to eclipse our oppressor all while shining the brightest light on the path of truth.

 

When we were enslaved, houses of worship became houses of freedom. Though we were separated upon arrival, the Black church became as a place to gather, bond and become one. 

​

Today, though our countrymen conspire to make America “great” again, Black faith still defies the status quo and acts as an ethical resistance to the “good old days”. It reminds us of the truth that will set us free and, through remembering to have faith that conquers, that we will be free indeed.
