Description

Reclaim the radical roots of Christianity with John Brown as your guide--resist oppression, confront Christian nationalism, and embrace a faith that demands justice.

Christianity began as a revolutionary faith in Africa and Palestine, yet across centuries it has been distorted into a tool for conquest, slavery, and nationalism. In her powerful debut, We Need John Brown Christians, activist and broadcaster Jacqueline Luqman reintroduces us to John Brown, the radical abolitionist whose failed raid on Harper's Ferry and subsequent execution made him known both as "God's instrument" and as America's first person tried for treason. Far from the caricatures of madness or martyrdom, Luqman presents Brown as a model of uncompromising discipleship, a patron saint for those who would resist the misuse of Christianity today.

Through a fusion of history, theology, and political analysis, Luqman shows how Brown's legacy challenges contemporary believers to confront white supremacy, resist Christian nationalism, and reclaim faith as a practice of justice. She situates Brown in a broader genealogy of liberatory Christianity, while also exposing how mainstream churches and prosperity preachers have emptied the gospel of its radical edge.

Written with urgency and clarity, We Need John Brown Christians invites us to wrestle with the hypocrisy of America's national origin story and to imagine a faith committed to freedom rather than domination. For Christians disillusioned by the politics of their church, for organizers seeking a spiritual framework for justice, and for anyone ready to ask what discipleship demands, this book is a bold call to action rooted in the fire of history.
