THE WILLIAM J. SEYMOUR INSTITUTE FOR BLACK CHURCH AND POLICY STUDIES WILL EDUCATE AND TRAIN BLACK CHURCH LEADERS (INCLUDING CLERGY, SEMINARIANS AND LAY MEN AND WOMEN) AS WELL THE INTERESTED PUBLIC, REGARDING A PROPER CHRISTIAN PHILOSOPHIC AND THEOLOGICAL UNDERSTANDING OF COMPLEX QUESTIONS CONFRONTING THE BLACK CHURCH AT THIS PERIOD IN OUR HISTORY. AN UNCOMPROMISING COMMITMENT TO THE POOR INSPIRES THE SEYMOUR INSTITUTE'S MISSION BECAUSE OF THE GREATER VULNERABILITY OF ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED POPULATIONS TO THE HARMS THAT ARISE FROM IMPROPER SOCIETAL ACTION IN THE AREAS OF CONCERN.
IN 2019, SEYMOUR INITIATED A MOVE TOWARD SOLIDARITY WITH BLACK CLERGY INTERNATIONALLY THROUGH ITS INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM DINNER WHICH SERVED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR THE SUMMIT IN 2019. THE INSTITUTE CONTINUED ITS OUTREACH AMONG AND MOBILIZATION OF BLACK CLERGY IN ITS WORK WITH THE MUSEUM OF THE BIBLE. AN UNCOMPROMISING COMMITMENT TO THE POOR IS AN IMPORTANT ASPECT OF THE PHILOSOPHIC AND THEOLOGICAL POSITION THAT THE INSTITUTE ADVANCES. THIS INSPIRES THE SEYMOUR INSTITUTE'S MISSION TO ADDRESS THE GREATER VULNERABILITY OF ECONOMICALLY DISADVANTAGED POPULATIONS TO THE HARMS THAT ARISE FROM IMPROPER SOCIETAL ACTION. THIS IS PRIMARILY ADDRESSED THROUGH THE ANNUAL MLK ACADEMIC SUMMER PROGRAM WHICH SERVES DISADVANTAGED STUDENTS IN THE BOSTON AREA.
