Much of this church history is painful. Much of it has to do with race. We too would hope that our students would value and appreciate the richness of the diversity of God's creation as seen in each other and in the people we meet, as well as come to deeper understanding and engagement of themselves and others. This history is more than a show. It is a story of struggle, dignity, an understanding of self as God's free creation, and God's grace and redemption. It is a movement of and toward justice.
