The third and final volume in the first comprehensive history of
Black social Christianity, by the “greatest theological ethicist
of the twenty-first century” (Michael Eric Dyson) The Black
social gospel is a tradition of unsurpassed and ongoing importance
in American life, argues Gary Dorrien in his groundbreaking trilogy
on the history of Black social Christianity. This concluding
volume, an interpretation of the tradition since the early 1970s,
follows Dorrien’s award-winning The New Abolition: W. E. B. Du
Bois and the Black Social Gospel and Breaking White Supremacy:
Martin Luther King Jr. and the Black Social Gospel. Beginning in
the shadow of Martin Luther King Jr., Dorrien examines the past
fifty years of this intellectual and activist tradition,
interpreting its politics, theology, ethics, social criticism, and
social justice organizing. He argues that Black social Christianity
is today an intersectional tradition of discourse and activist
religion that interrelates liberation theology, womanist theology,
antiracist politics, LGBTQ+ theory, cultural criticism, progressive
religion, broad-based interfaith organizing, and global solidarity
politics. A Darkly Radiant Vision features in-depth discussions of
Andrew Young, Jesse Jackson, Samuel DeWitt Proctor, Gayraud
Wilmore, James Cone, Cornel West, Katie Geneva Cannon, Stacey
Floyd-Thomas, Traci Blackmon, William J. Barber II, Raphael G.
Warnock, and many others.
