Reimagines interfaith engagement by blending diverse religious perspectives and activist insights to foster unity and challenge division in a polarized world.Blending academic rigor with activist passion, Beyond Dialogue redefines interfaith engagement for the twenty-first century, exploring how diverse faiths can combat hatred and foster unity. Contributors employ multidisciplinary approaches, from theology to anthropology, to confront challenges like nationalism and colonial legacies while highlighting historical and scriptural resources for peace building. Through vivid case studies, such as Hindu anti-nationalist activism and interfaith initiatives at Howard University, this volume offers practical models for dialogue that transcend tolerance and mere dialogue, emphasizing shared humanity. Designed for scholars, students, and lay readers, its accessible narratives and diverse perspectives—including faith traditions that have often been unrepresented, such as Indigenous religions, Neo-Paganism, and the Bahá'í Faith—make it an ideal teaching tool. Addressing urgent trends in interreligious studies, Beyond Dialogue challenges divisive "us vs. them" mindsets, proposing inclusive frameworks for a more just world.
