An inspiring journey into the inner lives of extraordinary human beings."--Susannah Heschel, author of The Aryan Jesus: Christian Theologians and the Bible in Nazi Germany "Albert Raboteau has written a powerful book for these troubled times. With biographical sketches and insightful analyses, he has called forth 'a cloud of witnesses' to illustrate the power of faith and courage in the ongoing confrontation with evil. This is a must-read for anyone who needs an example of faith in action. More importantly, it is a must-read for anyone willing to work for a better world."--Eddie S. Glaude Jr., author of Democracy in Black: How Race Still Enslaves the American Soul "American Prophets addresses, beautifully and with great wisdom, issues and questions that have again jumped to the forefront of American consciousness. Raboteau is a wonderfully accessible and graceful writer, and his topic is riveting."--Cathleen Kaveny, author of Prophecy without Contempt: Religious Discourse in the Public Square "Compelling. Raboteau renews our understanding of what prophetic thought--and calls to action--really look like."--Barbara Dianne Savage, author of Your Spirits Walk Beside Us: The Politics of Black Religion "A powerful text, empowering to read. I highly recommend it."--Tavis Smiley
