About Our

Mission

The mission of The Center for Reparatory Justice, Transformation, and Remediation is to promote/advance consciousness of reparatory justice and engender communities of practice and practitioners engaged in the reparations movement for people of African descent within local, national and global communities.

The Center is unapologetic in its goal to situate faith, theology, and ministry in the public discourse on reparations, reparatory justice, and models of remedy to address centuries of foundational and systemic racism in America grounded in faith.

We focus on:

1. Public education, academic courses, scholarship, and engagement on issues of reparatory and restorative justice, racial remediation, and systemic transformation;
2. Creation of resources and curricula related to the Center’s mission as well as trainings and consultative services to seminaries, churches, and other institutions; and
3. Participation in the creation and implementation of public policy, models of praxis, and public theology related to the mission of the Center.
