Systemic racism is still part of our everyday lived experience. Racial inequities and disparities continue to serve as barriers to creating a country where one's race no longer determines socioeconomic outcomes and where the imbalanced system we know today is replaced with systemic balance and justice for all of us.

Bryant sets the stage for "the new cultural conversation," which, as described, should involve a serious reckoning with America's racial past and present and a careful reimagining, rethinking, and reshaping of the nation's cultural landscape for future generations.

"ChaRIOT" serves as a radical vehicle of change for the oppressed, wrapped in compassion and faith. Bryant, a prominent voice in social justice, emphasizes the urgency of the current cultural landscape: "A chariot is a recognizable mode of transportation from biblical times, often depicted in combat. We are in a revolutionary war for the soul of this nation. To win it requires faith, the only thing that will produce revolutionary results."

In his debut work, "Paul and the Rise of the Slave: Death and Resurrection of the Oppressed in the Epistle to the Romans," Bryant was recognized by Larry L. Welborn of Fordham and Macquarie Universities for his "original, refreshing, and urgent voice." His scholarly contributions shed light on the dynamics between the oppressed and their oppressors, helping readers embrace a positive valuation of identity that transcends societal expectations. K. Edwin Bryant is the scholarly storyteller needed to unravel racism from the inside out.

Dr. Bryant stresses the importance of full economic access, advocating for curated conversations among sacred and secular professionals, especially during times of crisis. His upcoming titles, including "Paul and the Rise of Unusual Kindness: Reframing Koinonia through the Eyes of the Oppressed" and "The Bible of Business: For Sacred and Secular Leaders," promise to further explore these critical themes.
