Go Tell It on the Mountain by James Baldwin

Zero to Well-Read

Rebecca and Jeff revisit James Baldwin's searing coming-of-age novel about faith, family, shame, and generational inheritance. They discuss Baldwin's complicated relationship to the church, what it means to be “saved” in a world structured to deny freedom, and why the book's questions about power, masculinity, and belief still feel urgent today.
