Jesus and the Disinherited
by Howard Thurman
Chapter 4:
"Jesus was a member of a minority group in the midst of a larger, dominant and controlling group."
"If a man knows precisely what he can do to you, or what other epithet he can hurl against you to make you lose your temper, your equilibrium, then he can always keep you under subjection. It is a man's reaction to things that determines their ability to exercise power over him."
Chapter 8:
"In the one place in which normal, free contacts might be most naturally established, in which the relations of the individual to his God should take priority over conditions of class, race, power, status, wealth or the like, this place is one of the chief instruments for guaranteeing barriers." (Speaking of the church.)
"...according to the law she should be stoned to death. 'What is your judgment?' was there searching question. To them the woman is not a woman, or even a person, but an adulteress, stripped of her dignity and worth."
"He met the woman where she was and he treated her as if she were already where she now willed to be. In dealing with her he believed her into the fulfillment of her possibilities. He stirred her confidence into activity. He placed a crown over her head which for the rest of her life she would keep growing tall enough to wear."
