Pastor Keith Caldwell, a Nashville native, is a longtime grassroots community organizer who, through years of working at the intersection of Race and Poverty across the Southern Region, organically emerged through the ranks to become a civil rights leader who served as the president of the Nashville Branch–NAACP during the organization’s 100-year commemoration in 2018.
Caldwell was appointed to serve as Senior Pastor to Centenary UMC (United Methodist Church) in Memphis, Tennessee by Bishop William McAlilly of the Tennessee-Western Kentucky Conference of the United Methodist Church. It is a legacy church that was the site of nonviolence workshops and mass meetings under the pastorate of Rev. James Lawson during the Civil Rights Movement.
