Summary Southeast, the poorest neighborhood in Washington, D.C., has only one sit-down restaurant, but it has hundreds of churches. Faith in the Hood is a compelling portrait of the inner city, seen through the prism of the spiritual life of its people. The film profiles five ministries: a street ministry for former convicts, a socially activist storefront church, a large and powerful Afro-centric church, an evangelical summer camp for youth, and an Islamic school. With commentary from leading experts on African American faith, the film displays the richness of the inner city religious experience and its centrality as a defining aspect of black community life.
