While nation engages in debates concerning central issues of
religion and religious diversity in education, the historic
saliency of religion and spirituality in the Black community and in
the education of its children continues to be largely ignored.
Historically, religion and spirituality were foundational to the
development and understanding of social justice issues, including,
but not limited to, issues of protest, community up-lift, notions
of care, and anti-oppression. Taking into account the historical
significance of religion and spirituality in the Black community,
it is essential for education scholars to cultivate these
long-standing connections as a means for advancing contemporary
struggles for social justice, religiosity in education, and
counter-hegemonic praxis. The purpose of this book is to expand our
understanding of spirituality and religion as related to the p-20
schooling of Black students. Educational scholarship continues to
explore the workings of social justice to ameliorate inequities for
those who have not been wellserved in schools. Although the concept
of social justice remains a somewhat inchoate term in educational
literature, this book seeks to explore the historicity of religion
and spirituality while offering a scaffold that links ordinary
everyday acts of justice, religion, and spirituality in education
to a culture that systematically and institutionally assaults the
worth of Black students. It is important to note that this book is
grounded in a broad concept of religion and spirituality and the
editors seek to be inclusive of all types, styles, and traditions
of religiosity and spirituality.
