In a time of racial upheaval and a multitude of woes affecting marginalized communities, a young, African American filmmaker journeys to the heart of the Black experience to find the answer to a daunting question: Is the Black church dead?


Here, in the sanctuary of a Black church, the oldest Black institution in the U.S., we encounter one of the foundations for the preservation of Black culture in America. Through the years of oppression and sacrifice, one thing has remained: The Black church and its impact on Black culture today.


The film is a unique exploration of the vital connections between race, religion, and activism. The film stars Grammy® nominated gospel recording artist Jekalyn Carr, GMA Dove Nominated Artist Darlene McCoy, Emory University professor Rev Dr. Teresa Fry Brown, and many more, to answer important questions. https://letthechurch.com/
