The Annual C.S. Lewis Lecture

The Annual C.S. Lewis Lecture at the University of Tennessee Chattanooga by the late Verna Dozier. Born in Washington, DC, her parents deeply influenced her passion for education and her deep Biblical faith. She received a BA and an MA in English from Howard University and went on to teach in public schools for the next 32 years. Well after her retirement, Dozier was deeply involved in the study of the Bible and Christian education. During this time, not only was she an educator, Dozier was also an activist. In her teaching, she would often use stories about racism and other social issues. Having grown up under Jim Crow, she was an advocate of oppressed people throughout society and the Church.
