“The Psalms speak power today as they always have. They have spoken across generations. They have bridgehead cultural divides and social contexts with their emotional rawness, urge towards justice, and blunt candor about the coarse edges of walking with God. These ancient words continue to speak truth and inspiration to the growing number of people doing the holy, demanding work of pursuing justice, undoing structural racism, and building a society that truly values Black lives.-Cover copy of Psalms for Black Lives, Rev. Gabby and Rev. Andrew Wilkes.

“Throughout this season of Black Work Talk, we've explored how black workers have shown up in many of the big labor wins that happened in 2023.
