Black History & Adventism | Ben Baker
Manage episode 325433643 series 3301796
The Black American history is one full of both tragedy and triumph and how the Seventh-day Adventist church intersects with this history is fascinating. The late 1800's in the USA was a time of turmoil and civil war with slavery at the heart of the issues fought over. Then in the mid to late 1900's we have the civil rights movement in the USA. During both time periods the Adventist church had to grapple with how to deal with this social and political challenge. At times we can be proud of our history but at other times we did not act as we should have. Join us as Dr. Benjamin Baker, an expert on this subject, unpacks this subject.
