Ruby Sales — Where Does It Hurt? by On Being Studios published on 2016-09-15T14:47:28Z Where does it hurt? That’s a question the civil rights icon Ruby Sales learned to ask during the days of that movement. It’s a question we scarcely know how to ask in public life now, but it gets at human dynamics that we are living and reckoning with. At a convening of 20 theologians seeking to reimagine the public good of theology for this century, Ruby Sales unsettles some of what we think we know about the force of religion in civil rights history, and names a “spiritual crisis of white America” as a calling of this time. Genre Podcast Comment by karen I live this same struggle in the violence of our city today. I pray to God, "How do we transform this cognitive dissonance?" So I look to what God puts in front of me everyday and where he wants me to be of service. And yet still, some days, my heart breaks, because I wish I could do more. 2016-11-17T18:40:17Z Comment by Joe Paragone there is a white theology there is a black theology there is a theology for all races. it called the cross who goves himself continually to the faithful througj redemptive suffering for the love and good of the other. this is the basis of christianity and in specifically catholicism, the aporitual and physical exists side by side not segregated into defined theologies apecific to race. I feel this is dangerous. 2016-09-26T18:09:41Z Comment by Barbara Mack Blackburn Thank you, Ruby. I had not thought about that theology needs to liberate all people. 2016-09-21T00:04:13Z Comment by Jaamil Kosoko She really lands this beautifully! So important!
