In "Faith Unleavened: The Wilderness Between Trayvon Martin and George Floyd," theoactivist Tamice Spencer-Helms tells the story of what happens after the collapse of certainty — when faith falls apart, and something truer begins to rise.

This isn’t about losing faith. It’s about finding a Jesus who still promises life, even when the old version of faith can’t hold it anymore.

"My hope is that those who are curious about the trans experience but may not have a productive outlet for that curiosity can approach this book to learn. I also hope that the narrative around trans people can start to change when we start to listen to trans people in their own words. There are so many of us speaking up now and sharing our stories, and they’re all unique." Nia Chiaramonte
