حوارات حول الإنسانية والإبداع

How ​​is hip-hop related to religion? What does it tell us about the human desire for meaning? What do the visual arts tell us about our quest to find place, human connection, and meaning beyond the ordinary? Available for free, this book brings together scholars, artists, and activists, both secular and religious, to explore topics such as race, gender, class, artificial intelligence, and racial injustice. Based on the premise that dialogue produces a deeper understanding of human activity than monological discourses, this book reveals common ground in experiences and meaning-making through culture, art, and beauty. Beyond the theological-philosophical debate over who is right - believers or non-believers - this book examines the actions and goals of proponents of both positions, and how we make meaning in a time of increasing division. _Electronic copies of this book are available for free under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 license at bloomsburycollections.com.
