National Cathedral Installs ‘Racial Justice’ Themed Stained-Glass Windows
The National Cathedral has installed two “racial justice” themed stained-glass windows to replace ones that honored Confederate Gens. Robert E. Lee and Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson.
The new windows, created by artist Kerry James Marshall, feature protesters holding signs that read “Fairness” and “No Foul Play.”
Titled “Now and Forever,” the windows were unveiled on Saturday.
