In this episode, we conclude our series on Lillian Smith and Religion, examining the intersections of religion, race, class, gender, and sexuality. We are joined by Rev. Dr. Benjamin Boswell, pastor of Myers Park Baptist Church, Rev. John Harrison, pastor of Nacoochee Presbyterian Church, Dr. Jennifer Morrison, Assistant Professor of English at Xavier University Louisiana, Dr. Keri Leigh Merritt, and Rev. Annanda Barclay, co-host of the podcast Moral Repair: A Black Exploration of Tech. We spoke about how Lillian Smith's work, for all of the "sorrowful story" that she relates, provides us with hope for the future.
