The course also examines arguments concerning the local vs. the universal, the type of love the beloved community calls for, and what it means to conceptualize community. In addition to Blackboard interactions, Zoom meeting will be held during the fifth week of class with guest Brad Elliott Stone.  Zoom meeting will be held during the sixth week of class with guest Rev.
