Dismantling Privilege serves as a religious and cultural resource for challenging such common misconceptions of assumed privilege and for moving toward a more just society. Hobgood helps people discern the dynamics of class, race, sex-gender, and ecological privilege and oppression that shape us as persons who are also called to accountability and solidarity, virtues recognized by Christianity and all world religions as highly efficient ways of maximizing individual and social well being.

In addition to a new introduction and updated statistics, a concluding chapter to this revised and updated edition targets ecological crisis as the most pressing concern for accountable disciples and looks to political stirrings in Africa and Latin America for inspiration in movement building.
