This handbook explores the central theme of Christian faith from
various disciplinary approaches and different contexts of black
experience in the United States. The central unifying theme is
freedom; an important concept both in American culture and
Christianity. African American theology represents a Christian
understanding of God's freedom and the good news of God's call for
all humankind to enter life-true human identity and moral
responsibility-in genuine and just community. Contributors to the
volume argue that African American theology highlights how racism
and other intersecting forms of oppression complicate the human
predicament; and that their eradication requires an expansion of
salvation to include the liberation of persons who lack full
participation in society and enjoyment of the good (and goods) made
possible by that society. The essays in this handbook employ the
tools of biblical criticism, history, cultural and social analysis,
religious studies, philosophy, and systematic theology, in order to
explore and assess the nature and impact of race, ethnicity,
gender, sexuality, class, immigration, and cultural and moral
pluralism in America-as well as the intersections between African
American and African diasporan religious thought and life.
