Bill Wylie-Kellermann is retired United Methodist pastor, non-violent community activist, author and teacher from Waawiyatanong/Detroit, now also of the community at Kirkridge on Lenape land. His first arrest for direct action was at the White House in 1971. He is author of seven books, including Seasons of Faith and Conscience: Reflections on Liturgical Direct Action (Orbis Books/Cascade Press). His writing is generally framed by a theology of the “principalities.” And he likes to say that in Jesus, he bets his life on gospel non-violence, good news to the poor, and freedom from the power of death.
