Reviews

Aminah Beverly McCloud - DePaul University"Knight takes his readers to the heart of this community, weaving complicated histories, personalities and ideals. Written in beautiful prose, this is a long awaited and welcomed read for anyone who has even a casual interest in religion and culture in urban America."
