On Moodiness and Righteous Rage

The Revealer‘s Kali Handelman interviews Karen Bray about her book, Grave Attending: A Political Theology of the Unredeemed, and “what it can teach us about today’s protests for racial justice.” Bray says that grave attending is “about paying attention and being accountable.” She says, “The shift in more people filling the streets in protest of these murders, and the growing popularity of defunding the police and of Black Lives Matter, is of course due to massive organizing efforts (primarily by BIPOC) over the last decade, but it is also about a shift in mood, one that took more people, particularly more white people, finally paying greater and graver attention.”
