John Fea   |  February 12, 2023 Leave a Comment

In this episode we talk with historian and biographer Nancy Koester about her new book on nineteenth-century abolitionist and women’s rights advocate Sojourner Truth. Our discussion focuses on Truth’s lifelong pursuit of a just society, a deeper knowledge of God, and a sense of community for her and her family. Koester’s book is titled We Will Be Free: The Life and Faith of Sojourner Truth.
