"With Liberty and Justice for Some: The Bible, the Constitution, and Racism in America" has won the IBPA Benjamin Franklin Book Awards in the Political and Current Events category and the Independent Press Awards in the Cultural and Social Issues category.

VALLEY FORGE, Pa. - PennZone -- "With Liberty and Justice for Some: The Bible, the Constitution, and Racism in America" asserts that the two texts we count as sacred—the Bible and the Constitution—have not been merely impotent in eliminating racism but have been used to support and sustain white supremacy.

The book tackles the truths that the U.S. church has long held to be self-evident: that ours is one nation under God, that the U.S. Constitution is almost as infallible as the Holy Bible and that democracy and its principles of justice for all are sacrosanct and protected by both God and government. Yet history and headlines alike expose the fallacy of those assumptions, particularly when viewed in light of a national culture of systemic racial injustice and white supremacy.
