This book presents a study of the rise of American neoliberalism in
the aftermath of the modern Civil Rights movement, paying
particular attention to the traumatic impact of the neoliberal age
on countless African Americans. Author Cedric C. Johnson takes a
close look at the manner in which American neoliberalism has been
able to preserve, articulate, and exploit constructions of
race-based difference. The neoliberal age has engendered an
extraordinary growth in economic disparities and social
inequalities, with traumatic repercussions for innumerable African
Americans. Historically, black religious forms have functioned as
contested spaces, capable of organizing alternative modes of
cultural, economic, and political life. This project examines forms
of black religiosity that function as modes of soul care in this
context. Johnson posits an innovative, multi-systems approach that
informs practices of care for populations traumatized or threatened
by the neoliberal age.
