A Lesson Before Dying

How do we resolve this paradox? How has faith served African-Americans as a source of personal empowerment and an axis of communal resistance? People got their personal empowerment from the religions like christianity.

One of the novel's paradoxes is that Ambrose's faith—which Grant rejects because it is also the white man's—enables him to stand up against the white man's "justice."

Reverend Ambrose knows that faith does not have a color..... it is not based on race.
