Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the evolution of African American religious studies, this anthology by Cornel West and Eddie Glaude emphasizes the need for a broader understanding of the diverse beliefs and actions within the community. It critiques the tendency to simplify these complexities into mere expressions of black religion. The authors advocate for a nuanced exploration of how class, gender, sexual orientation, race, and empire intersect with African American religious practices, urging a reexamination of values that challenge democratic ideals.
