Join us on Zoom for a book study of the Cross and the Lynching Tree on Wednesdays, April 14 to May 12 at 6pm.

The cross and the lynching tree are the two most emotionally charged symbols in the history of the African American community. In this powerful new work, theologian James H. Cone explores these symbols and their interconnection in the history and souls of black folk. Both the cross and the lynching tree represent the worst in human beings and at the same time a thirst for life that refuses to let the worst determine our final meaning.

Participants should provide their own book. If you haven't gotten your copy, please consider buying from Left Bank Books in the Central West End -- it's a fabulous local book store and is struggling due to COVID.
