Father Alex Zanotelli, an Italian missionary priest, served for many years among the poorest of the poor in a slum in Nairobi. Over time, his beloved community shared their hearts and lives with him and ultimately “commissioned” him to minister to and evangelize the members of the white world whose systems of oppression continue to harm so many in African countries and the Global South.

Reviews for Letter to the White World

“Zanotelli recounts the lessons of life, faith, and theology learned in the shantytown of Korogocho in Nairobi and exhorts Christians in the Global North to examine their hearts and minds, histories and prejudices. . . . [A] powerful witness.” — Daniel P. Horan Saint Mary’s College, Notre Dame “Father Zanotelli directs his open letter to a largely Western audience whose reeducation, conscientization, and spiritual redemption are imperative for embracing a pluralistic humanity. This matrix of mutuality is urgently necessary to save us all from the convergent moral, political, economsic, and ecological catastrophes that jeopardize our planetary existence.” —Faye V. Harrison Center of African Studies, University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana
