Ever had a dream about divorce? J.M. Humphrey (a black pastor-theologian from the early 20th century) did and it led him to think that re-marriage was against God's will. Maggie pulls this case out of her dissertation in order to explain 20th century debates about divorce and to show where racism showed up. She and Joel talk about the way that white churches fail to normalize black theological authority and, at times, whitewash black thinkers in order to justify learning from them.
