Tied to this reality, he heeded the call to write \u003ci\u003eHow Ableism Fuels Racism \u003c\/i\u003eto help Christian communities engage in critical conversations about race by addressing issues of ableism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardwick believes that ableism--the idea that certain bodies are better than others--and the resulting disability discrimination are the root causes of racial bias and injustice in American culture and in the church. Here, he uses historical records, biblical interpretation, and disability studies to examine how ableism in America led to the creation of images, idols, and institutions that fuel both disability and racial discrimination.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHe then goes a step further, calling the church into action to address the deep-seated issues of ableism that started it all and offering practical steps to help readers dismantle ableism and racism both in attitude and practice.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 192\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.56 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 20, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51779098411296,"sku":"9781587436284","price":71.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9764\/5344\/files\/eba6cae9af54b0c890cf0d6cbddc8789.webp?v=1780511583","url":"https:\/\/ebocreations.com\/products\/how-ableism-fuels-racism-hardcover","provider":"The E-Book Oasis LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
