Racism is a mountain in the middle of American society that cannot be ignored. According to Oglesby, it must be climbed. Drawing on sources from Martin Buber to Reinhold Niebuhr, this book combines traditions of Christian ethics with African experience, arguing for a notion of covenant-harambee that is at once faithful to African conceptuality and Christian theology.

A Limited Perspective,
By "khilltx" (Austin, TX United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: O Lord, Move This Mountain: Racism and Christian Ethics (Paperback)
Oglesby comprehensively describes his definition of racism using historical examples and models. It is easy to recognize his argument and his agenda. Still, his recommendations seem too unrealistic, mainly because he expexts White America to make drastic moral, social, and political changes before the Church can make progress toward racial reconciliation.
