Danjuma Gibson is the professor of pastoral care at Calvin Theological Seminary, and a licensed psychotherapist in private practice. In addition to exploring psychological trauma, Dr. Gibson's current research includes exploring the intersection of urbanism, black religious experience, psychoanalytic thought, and socioeconomics.
"""Danjuma Gibson gives a sobering analysis of how some of this country's most courageous and misunderstood leaders for justice held in tension their aspirations and visions with the disappointments that accompanied their pursuits. Gibson lays bare the conundrum that emerges from the realization that the support desired and needed from other black leaders was often marginal at best. This clarifying assessment will assist present day leaders in their own perspectives in racial justice work."" --Anthony L. Bennett, lead pastor, Mount Aery Baptist Church ""In contrast to the usual, white-washed narratives idealizing civil rights titans, Danjuma Gibson offers a nuanced understanding of the 'beautiful but arduous' spiritual and psychological work undergirding the titans' courageous lives. In his distinctive and poetic voice, Gibson both challenges and inspires readers to move beyond silence and complicity in the face of white supremacy. This is timely and vital reading for Christians and others who want to see 'what love looks like.'"" --Mary Clark Moschella, professor of pastoral theology and care, Yale Divinity School"
