Dr. Reggie Williams - Bonhoeffer’s Black Jesus & BLM

As you can hear from Drew and Jarrod’s excitement, they loved this episode. Dr. Reggie Williams is a legend. His book “Bonhoeffer’s Black Jesus: Harlem Renaissance Theology and an Ethic of Resistance” is an award winning work reconsidering the shape of Dietrich Bonhoeffer resistance to the Nazi’s through the influence of his experience of the Black Church tradition in America. In short Dr. Reggie Williams makes clear Eric Metaxis full of skubala and you can’t understand Bonhoeffer without situating his witness as a wrestle with the Powers of white supremacy.
