"Operation Breadbasket is a narrative of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference's Operation Breadbasket, 1966-1971, an economic empowerment project that Martin Luther King Jr brought to Chicago as part of the Chicago Freedom Movement. Rev. Martin L. Deppe was a founding and active member of Breadbasket's steering committee throughout the life of this program. Using the power of the pulpit to galvanize consumer support including occasional economic withdrawal ("Don't Buy") efforts, the participating ministers, the project negotiated for a fair share of jobs in the African American community of Chicago, and in time added products and services originating from that community. By the end of six years, Breadbasket's fifteen "covenants" with milk, soft drink, chain store and other consumer-oriented industries, brought approximately $57 million dollars of new income into the black community annually. The program ended when the project's national director, Rev. Jesse Jackson, resigned in December 1971, and essentially took the program out of SCLC into his own Operation PUSH, later Rainbow PUSH. This book is both a history of Operation Breadbasket, and a memoir of life in it as written by one of Breadbasket's most active participants. Deppe uses his extensive files--steering committee minutes, memoranda, brochures, letters, sermonic material, Chicago Defender archives, colleagues' files--along with extensive new research, including interviews with several surviving participants."--Provided by publisher.

31 oktober 1517: Luther publiceert de 95 stellingen. Die datum wordt al eeuwen beschouwd als een symbolisch moment voor het begin van de Reformatie. Luther was een uitstekende mediaman die de kansen van de pas ontdekte boekdrukkunst heel goed wist te benutten. Zijn geschriften kwamen in de Nederlanden terecht, werden vertaald en hadden ook daar grote invloed. Ook de kracht van het beeld komt in diverse bijdragen aan bod. En wat zou de Reformatie zijn geweest zonder de muziek?00Exhibition: Museum Catharijneconvent, Utrecht, The Netherlands (22.09.2017-28.01.2018).
