Danté is the author of Shoutin’ in the Fire: An American Epistle, an award winning writer, an ordained minister, a husband, and a father. Over the last six months, his words have been a beacon of hope and a reminder of our shared humanity.
We talk about the need to sustain resistance, the way faith can bring out our best and our worst, and the harm that white supremacy causes us all.
Danté’s stories of his family — from his grandparents down through his children — are so beautiful and full of love. He reminds us that it is ultimately about lifting each other up.
I find it magical that this conversation with a Reverend comes out during these last few days of Ramadan.
Please enjoy the most lovingly eloquent — Danté.
