The essence of Dr. Howard Thurman (1900–1981) and his thought emerges in a message of hope, reconciliation, and love.
Howard Thurman writes here about the "meaning of the religious experience as it involves the individual totally, which means inclusive of feelings and emotions."
Howard Thurman, minister, philosopher, civil rights activist, has been called ‘one of the greatest spiritual resources of this nation.’ His encounters with Gandhi in India helped instill his commitment to nonviolence. This book features some of his writings.
A companion to the PBS series, This Far by Faith is the story of how religious faith inspired the greatest social movement in American history—the U.S. Civil Rights movement.
