Riverside Church and the Road to Racial Justice

Founded in 1930, Riverside Church in the City of New York strives to be interdenominational, interracial, and international. While many in the Columbia community have seen Riverside Church, few are aware of its rich history—hosting the likes of Martin Luther King Jr. and Mandela. In this episode of The Ear, Sophia Cordoba unpacks the history behind Riverside’s prominence in the struggle for racial justice.
