In Let Her Be, Charles Knowles examines the theological, biblical, and sociological reasons for the Southern Baptist Convention's positions on slavery and the subordination of women. He shows that the perpetual subordination of any person due to ethnicity, gender, or class is inconsistent with right relationships with God and others modeled by Jesus and described in the Bible.
