A Call for Reparations by the
National Black Evangelical Association (NBEA)
by Dr. Anne C. Bailey
In the spirit of the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King and his non-violent movement, the NBEA is calling for Reparations for people of African descent. We imagine a country and a world built on what Dr. King called “agape love” – defined as the highest form of love and charity, a self-sacrificing, unconditional love. Such a radical love for one another and radical appreciation of our interdependence ultimately calls us to correct the wrongs of the past.
We are an umbrella association that identifies, calls together, unites in prayer, fellowship, and evangelism, and empowers leaders for Jesus Christ.
Activist Black Believers collaborate with integrity
By Rev. Dr. McCray, President of NBEA
A recent title from Dr. McCray is “Unity in Diversity Without Enforced Conformity.” This Biblical guide helps Black Christians to work together for the benefit of their community while staying true to Christ and their African-descended identity. Purchase your copy here.
