The roots of African American spirituality arise from the African
origins of the enslaved who were brought to the West in chains.
Flora Wilson Bridges explores these "African retentions" from their
manifestations in Africa, through their presence in the slave
communities of the American South and in Black churches today. The
unique spirituality that arose from these retentions influenced
many prominent black leaders including Howard Thurman, Martin
Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. In a fascinating chapter, Bridges
also shows how these African roots inform Black film, literature,
and art.
