Opis

What has happened to the religious left? If there is a religious left, why don't we hear more about it? The academics and activists who write this rich volume, edited by Rebecca Alpert, argue passionately on topics that concern all of us. Quoting from the Bible, the Torah, the Qur'an, the teachings of Buddha, as well as Native American folklore, they make the voices of the religious left heard teaching lessons of peace and liberation. As this invaluable sourcebook shows, the religious left is committed to issues of human rights and dignity. Answering questions of identity and ideology, the essays included here stem from the i??culture warsi??' that have divided orthodox and liberal believers. Responding to the needs of and raised by marginalized social groups, the writers discuss economic issues and religious politics as they champion equal rights, and promote the teaching of progressive vision. Containing insightful perspectives of adherents to many faiths, i??Voices of the Religious Lefti?? makes it clear that there is a group dedicated to instilling the values of justice and freedom. They are far from silent. Author note: Rebecca T. Alpert is Assistant Professor of Religion and Women's Studies, Temple University. She is the author of i??Like Bread on the Seder Plate: Jewish Lesbians and the Transformation of Traditioni??, and the co-author of i??Exploring Judaism: A Reconstructionist Approachi??.
