The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy
Center on Faith and Justice
@centeronfaithandjustice9873About
Georgetown University's Center on Faith and Justice aims to deepen the conversation on religion and politics and to advocate for just public policies. Housed in the McCourt School of Public Policy and led by noted Christian ethicist Jim Wallis, the Center focuses on four key programmatic areas: racism, poverty, peace, and justice—in all their religious, moral, personal, and systematic dimensions. It brings together students, scholars, practitioners, religious leaders, policymakers, and media to reshape how faith is discussed and understood in relation to our civic life. The Center on Faith and Justice at Georgetown University seeks a reversal of politics merely being defined by wealth and power but rather by our best spiritual values. And it believes that a society’s moral integrity is defined by the well-being of the most marginalized and vulnerable.

Georgetown University's Center on Faith and Justice hosts a conversation on Robert P. Jones’ new book "The Hidden Roots of White Supremacy: And the Path to a Shared American Future." Taking the story of white supremacy in America back to 1493, and examining contemporary communities for models of racial repair, Jones helps chart a new course toward a genuinely pluralistic democracy. Joining the conversation are Rev. Jim Wallis, director of the Center on Faith and Justice; Vann Newkirk II, a staff writer for The Atlantic; and Jennifer Rubin, a columnist for The Washington Post.
