A healing antidote to our divisive culture, full of evocative storytelling, spiritual wisdom and nine essential daily practices--by the first female, Black senior minister at the historic Collegiate Churches of New York We are living in what Dr. Jacqueline Lewis calls "hot mess times": a world divided by politics, race, intolerance, fear, and rancor. But her own experience--of being a woman in a traditionally male domain, of being in an interracial marriage, of making peace with childhood abuse--demonstrates that our human capacity for empathy, compassion, and forgiveness is the key to reversing these ugly trends. Inspired by the Ubuntu philosophy "I am who I am because we are who we are" and explained through stories from her own life and those of her mentors and inspirations, Dr. Lewis details the nine daily practices necessary for transforming ourselves, our communities, and our world at large. From learning to put down our emotional baggage to speaking truth to power to fueling our activism with joy, Dr. Lewis gives readers a renewed sense of the power they have to create caring communities; to stand up for the vulnerable; and to change our shared human story from one of anxiety, anger, and divisiveness to one of mindfulness, compassion, and unity. Dr. Lewis's Fierce Love is a manifesto for all generations, a universalist's vision for mending our broken hearts and fractured world.
