Faith, Race, and the Lost Cause thus interrogates the legacy of St. Paul's self-identified benevolent paternalism on the racial and religious geography of Richmond, and the epilogue reflects on what an authentic process of recognition and reparations might be, drawing useful lessons for White people in America writ large"--
