Union Theological Seminary’s Kelly Brown Douglas named the winner of the 2023 Grawemeyer Award in Religion

How do we really know God cares when Black people are still getting killed? How long do we have to wait for God’s justice? Hearing her son ask those questions and seeing Black Lives Matter protests erupt nationwide after George Floyd’s death in 2020 led theologian the Very Rev. Dr. Kelly Brown Douglas to write “Resurrection Hope: A Future Where Black Lives Matter.” On Friday she was named winner of the 2023 Grawemeyer Award in Religion for the book’s ideas.
