He uses it as a lens through which to explore how the church functioned as a formative social, cultural, and political institution within a racially fractured and continually shifting cultural and civil landscape. Roberson highlights some of the prominent figures associated with the church, such as Martin Luther King, Jr., as well as some of the less prominent figures--for example the many women whose organizational efforts sustained the church.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51931264188704,"sku":"NEW0415949211","price":67.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/fighting-the-good-fight-0415949211","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
