    Rest In Peace Dr. Cone. I often wandered myself why the church, and theologians were silent during the civil rights movement, angered about it as well, being a minority .And also why black folk stuck it out with Christianity. Dr. Cone really put the ladder question to ease for me, he will be missed. A true soldier of Christ. Dr.MLK as well,Dr.Dyson, Dr West. Great black prophetic voices.

      A true soldier of humanity! I assure you his great works have touched the lives of many non-Christian and indeed non-religious people. That is what makes Cone so amazing, his theology must be taken seriously, whether you believe in his God or not. MLK and West both fall into the same category in my mind

      He was an unmatched theologian. He helped me see Christianity through the lens of black struggle, oppression, and being delivered and set free by Jesus Christ himself.

    How hard we must work to turn our guilt into understanding, willing activity with insight, to meet our God-given assets and humanitarianism, fulfilling our responsibilities of love for one another. Blessed thanks for the continuing support of Dr.s West. Cone, MLK Jr. and the many others for their dedicated work and encouragement through so many difficult years.

    Love this:
    "I got tenure.& this
    "Ain't no need of having it if you win't gonna use it!"
    But be careful. You gotta be ready for reaction.

      And these days the tenure status of our Black professors is at risk... Universities don't seem as willing to grant it, and as with Dr. West it can be lost/denied!
