Description
Too often all oppressed people in America are lumped together under the moniker people of color as if each groups experience under the yoke of systemic racism has the same economic and social repercussions But the American Descendants of Slavery ADOS hold a unique claim to economic and reparative justice for ADOS after all is the only group whose ancestors were forcibly brought to America enslaved built much of the wealth of the country yet continue to be specifically excluded from the same social political and economic rights of other Americans To that end Rev Dr Kevin W Cosby lays out the first theology of the ADOS movement turning the traditional lens of Black liberation theology from Moses leading escaped Hebrew slaves in Exodus to other biblical leaders like Solomon Daniel and Nehemiah
In the stories of Nehemiah and other biblical leaders Cosby finds inspiration on how to rebuild Black America including the necessity of government reparations for ADOS Cosby calls all Americans to move from a place of relative nonengagement and detachment to a place of active support of ADOSs efforts for justice and healing
