Elite: Uncovering Classism in Unitarian Universalist History
If our congregations are to find a way forward in addressing issues of class, Mark Harris will have helped pave the way. Elite captures our present quirks, strengths, hopes and anxieties in the context of an eye-opening account of past realities. --Gordon Gibson, president, Unitarian Universalist Historical SocietyMark Harris has given us the gift of a well polished mirror and challenged us to look deeply into our class-bound history. Insightfully and crisply written, Elite reveals the limits of our vision and the length of our class bias. With compelling clarity, historic heroes and heroines, social reforms and denominational leaders come alive to ask us if we can break out of our class ghetto and become the universalist faith we profess. --Stephen Shick, author, Be the Change: Poems, Prayers and Meditations for Peacemakers and Justice Seekers
