• A Brand of Christian Racism: The Christian Identity Movement

• American society these days is troubled by the existence of racist and anti-government groups. Much to the chagrin of many Christians, some of the anti-semitic, anti-black, and anti-government groups seem to be based on or at least influenced by extreme fundamentalist, evangelical Christian theology. From where does that religious justification for these hate groups or hate attitude come? In many cases, it comes from the Christian Identity movement.

• Meet Howard Thurman: MLK Spiritual Advisor, College Dean & Author

• In every age there are women and men of all races, genders, and cultures who are public standouts. They make unique contributions; they are recognized; and then they often are forgotten. One such person was Howard Thurman (1899-1981) who is being rediscovered today. He was Dean of the Chapel at two universities—Howard and Boston. In 1944 he was co-founder/minister of an interracial San Francisco church. He was a spiritual advisor to Martin Luther King, Jr. and author of many books. In this session we will quickly explore his life, sample his published meditations, and consider how he speaks to our contemporary situation.

Using a primarily historical method, the lecture will show not only how and why Catholic and Orthodox procedures of celebrating the Lord's Supper differ from Protestantism, but also how and why different Protestant traditions differ from each other.
