The Rev. Jermaine Ross-Allam serves as the inaugural director of the Center for the Repair of Historical Harms for the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) and is a Ph.D. candidate in social ethics at Union Theological Seminary in Manhattan. He is currently completing a book tentatively titled Trammeled by the Bonds of Union: The Social Ecology of Extralegal Violence and Impunity against Afro-Americans from the New York City Draft Riots in 1863 to the Wilmington, North Carolina, coup d’état in 1898, and he volunteers with Restorative Actions — an economic equity initiative born from the intersection of theology, justice and economics.
