Reverend Danté Stewart, author of Shoutin’ In The Fire, brings us on an inspirational journey through James Baldwin’s faith and his relentless pursuit of finding and championing love and humanity in a world full of fear, hate, and grief. Baldwin historian Ed Pavlić caps off this episode with a segment on the role of Baldwin’s religious upbringing in his desire to promote hope and justice in his work.
