Bill Moyers’ Journal (23 Nov 2007)
The power and beauty found in the African American church and spiritual experience reminds me of St. Timothy when he wrote “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love and of a strong mind.” In another outstanding interview, Bill Moyers talks with theologian James Cone about the relationship between the noose/lynching tree and the symbol of the cross. This is a wonderful discussion about preserving and growing our humanity, our endurance and our love against all odds in the face of tactics to terrorize, control, dominate, and kill.
