Interreligious Collaboration for Social Justice in the 21st Century South

Abstract

Systemic solutions to poverty and racial inequities in the South require engaging communities of diverse spiritual traditions to frame these injustices in their respective values and convictions, while uniting them around common strategies and visions for change. The nature of such work will be addressed by reflecting on the Moral Monday campaign in North Carolina, workers' rights campaigns in Raleigh-Durham, and the FADE campaign to address policing disparities.
