In this special episode of "Religion and Justice," hosted by Aaron Stauffer, Assistant Director of Wendland-Cook and Director of Online Learning at Vanderbilt Divinity School, we embark on a captivating exploration of the Social Gospel in the South. Despite the absence of our regular hosts, Gabby Lisi and George, this episode promises a rich and enlightening discussion (we know, you'll miss our banter!).
Part of our grant series, this episode delves into the profound intersections of religion, justice, and history. Joined by esteemed guests Erik S. Gellman, a researcher specializing in working-class and urban life, and Jarod Roll, a professor of history at the University of Mississippi, the conversation unfolds as a deep dive into the historical roots of the Social Gospel movement.
This episode is part of our Sesquicentennial Grant project, "Unexplored Legacy of the Social Gospel in the South: The Vanderbilt Contribution."
