Why read it?
1 author picked He Saw that it was Good as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I wonder about the relationship between art and activism. I’ve long loved the sharp and prophetic songs of Sho Baraka.
Like his raps, Sho’s book simultaneously enlightened and entertained me. It has rhythm and flow, interweaving short stories and poems with insightful and enduring truths. I appreciated how he explained where hip-hop comes from and connected it to Scriptural roots. He discusses how flawed so many of our heroes may be, and yet they still accomplish amazing things.
After reading Sho’s provocative work, I want to practice the same kind of integration of faith and action.
From Craig's list on creativity and deepening your spirituality.
