Summary

Lisa Aaron Harper, author of the new book Fortune: How Race Broke My Family and The World, sits down with Tim to discuss her book and the future of Evangelicalism. Lisa explains how the investigation of her genealogy was the catalyst for her new book. Tim and Lisa discuss the difference between the individualism within white culture that removes the person from their ancestors' national, cultural and linguistic identity and other ethnic cultures who see their connection to their ancestors' national, cultural and linguistic identity. Tim and Lisa discuss the past and present of Evangelicalism in America. Lastly, Tim and Lisa discuss the current conservative SCOTUS court and how the implications for black and brown people could erase decades of advances in racial equality.
