Description

How do black political needs and goals relate to black religious experience? What’s the meaning of religion–and of Christ–in a racist society? On this classic early articulation of black theology, first published in 1974, J. Deotis Roberts argues that reconciliation is the essence of the excellent news, but it will have to be at the side of liberation. Ethnicity and theology, he contends, will have to meet in the specific black religious experience by recognizing the liberal, activist, and even revolutionary role of Christ in the reason for freedom. Discussing human nature and destiny in the black standpoint, the nature of the gospel, and the black experience of community, Roberts presents the place of the black church as the primary institution poised to put into effect the liberation of whole persons and a complete people.
