In this powerful conversation, the National Reentry Network for Returning Citizens sits down with Rev. George Gilbert Jr., Pastor of Holy Trinity Baptist Church and Executive Director of the Center for Racial Equity & Justice. Rev. Gilbert shares his lifelong commitment to advancing equity and justice through faith, advocacy, and community leadership. Together, we explore the urgent need to address public health inequities and economic injustice that disproportionately impact Black and returning citizen communities. From the pulpit to public policy, Rev. Gilbert offers insight on how faith-based leadership, grassroots organizing, and systemic change can intersect to build healthier and more just futures.
