  • In this episode of the DEI Podcast, Max talks with Jemar Tisby, New York Times bestselling author and Notre Dame alum, about his latest book, The Spirit of Justice: True Stories of Faith, Race, and Resistance. Jemar’s book illuminates the often-overlooked heroes of the racial justice movement and explores how faith has deeply influenced the struggle for racial equality across both historical and contemporary contexts.

    Max and Jemar delve into the crucial role of faith in civil rights and racial justice, the emergence of the Black church as a powerful space of resistance, and the evolving nature of racial injustice. They also discuss the contributions of White allies, the vital role of Black women during the civil rights era, and common misinterpretations of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s legacy. Throughout their conversation, Jemar highlights the enduring power of resilience, the importance of Black representation, and how these elements continue to inspire and shape contemporary movements for justice.
