This book argues that "race" and "whiteness" are central to the
construction of the modern world. Constructive Theology needs to
take them seriously as primary theological problems. In doing so,
Constructive Theology must fundamentally change its approach, and
draw from the emerging field of Philosophy of Race. Christopher M.
Baker develops a genealogy of race that understands "whiteness" as
a kind secular soteriology, and develops a counternarrative
theological method informed by resources from Philosophy of Race.
He then deploys that method to read science fiction cinema and
superhero stories as cultural, racial, and theological documents
that can be critically engaged and redeployed as counternarratives
to dominant racial narratives.
