About this video

Runtime: 31 mins

Kelly Brown Douglas, Dean of the Episcopal Divinity School at Union Theological Seminary, shares her journey to becoming a theologian. Initially unfamiliar with theology, she was inspired by James Cone's "A Black Theology of Liberation" during college. This book helped her reconcile her faith with her identity as a Black woman. Studying under Cone, she found her voice and committed to addressing racial injustice through theology. Her work emphasizes the importance of understanding Christianity's role in sustaining racism and the need for transformative ministry that speaks against anti-Black racism.
