"[A] learned, readable, and immensely important work of history,
journalism, and advocacy." --Samuel G. Freedman, author of Upon
This Rock

voices on the Religious Right by showcasing the underreported
heroism of politically progressive Christians who reject power and
privilege in favor of compassion and reconciliation." --Sister
Helen Prejean, author of Dead Man Walking
"[Divine Rebels] is a timely and important account of American
Christian activists deeply committed to both their faith and to a
better world here and now. . . . They are models for everyone who
has ever wondered how personal faith relates to the injustice of
the world. I highly recommend this book." --Sami Rasouli, human
rights activist and director of the Muslim Peacemaker Teams
"[Divine Rebels] is the perfect blend of inspiration and
challenging social commentary."--U.S. Catholic
"Guzder's first-person reporting animates her prose without
obscuring her subject"--Publishers Weekly

social commentary."--U.S. Catholic Magazine
"With a journalist's eye for the interesting and an historian's
attention to context, Deena Guzder tells the under-reported story
of America's faith-based social justice movement after Martin
Luther King, Jr. These are the lives of people I've learned from,
people I love. What a gift to read their stories told so
well."--Jonathan Wilson-Hartgrove, author, activist, and new
monastic
