Presented in conjunction with 10.30.2021 Webinar featuring The Rev. Gayle Fisher-Stewart.
“Nat Turner: A Troublesome Property”(2003)
- If you are non-white, pay close attention to the White commentators as they seek to explain Nat Turner. Put yourself in their position, what are you hearing, what are you feeling?
- If you are non-black, again pay attention to the Black commentators as they seek to explain Nat Turner. Put yourself in their position, what are you hearing, what are you feeling?
- How can we have empathy for those who face oppression because of race in this country? What is the role of the church in eliminating racial oppression? How could you/would you use this docu/drama in a discussion of race in your congregation?
