The Fellowship Church is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of race in the United States, American religion, and nonviolent social activism. The Fellowship Church, established in wartime San Francisco in 1944, was the United States' first interracial, intercultural, and interfaith church. Co-founded by the African American intellectual and theologian Howard Thurman, it was an early expression of nonviolence within the long Civil RightsMovement. Amanda Brown offers an exciting look into ways Americans have initiated grassroots activism during times when government has failed to protect its citizens' civil liberties, safety, and overall wellbeing through judicial safeguards. It is an important contribution to our understanding of modernAmerican thought that can also inform contemporary social movement building.
