Walter Strickland didn't read a book from cover to cover until he was 18 years old. Books—from that first read, The Screwtape Letters, to Strickland's latest work, Swing Low—have shaped his life. So, too, has the Black church.  Strickland, an author, educator, and pastor, joins Moore to talk about the titles that have formed their experiences as Christians and academics. They consider how slaveholders used biblical texts to defend their actions and weaponized faith against enslaved people. Strickland and Moore observe the ways that God remains faithful to his Word amid oppression and explore the phenomenon of Black worshipers leaving predominantly white churches. They discuss African American theologians, the witness of the Black church, and the five anchors that Black Christianity has contributed to the body of Christ.

569. We welcome Jeroen Dewulf back to the podcast to discuss his new book, Afro-Atlantic Catholics: America's First Black Christians. "This volume examines the influence of African Catholics on the historical development of Black Christianity in America during the seventeenth century. Dewulf's analysis focuses on the historical documentation of Afro-Atlantic Catholic rituals, devotions, and social structures. Of particular importance are brotherhood practices, which were critical in the dissemination of Afro-Atlantic Catholic culture among Black communities, a culture that was pre-Tridentine in nature and wary of external influences. These fraternal Black mutual-aid and burial society structures were critically important to the development and resilience of Black Christianity in America through periods of changing social conditions." "Jeroen Dewulf (born 1972 in Nieuwpoort, Belgium) is a Belgian scholar specializing in Dutch culture, the Dutch language, German Studies, slavery and African-American culture, Caribbean Studies, and Latin American Studies. He is a professor at the University of California, Berkeley." This week in Louisiana history. April 13, 1803. Barbé-Marbois meets with Livingston to offer La. for 100 Million ₣ francs.

Black Christianity in America has long been studied as a blend of indigenous African and Protestant elements. Jeroen Dewulf redirects the conversation by focusing on the enduring legacy of seventeenth-century Afro-Atlantic Catholics in the broader history of African American Christianity. With homelands in parts of Africa with historically strong Portuguese influence, such as the Cape Verde Islands, São Tomé, and Kongo, these Africans embraced variants of early modern Portuguese Catholicism that they would take with them to the Americas as part of the forced migration that was the transatlantic slave trade. Their impact upon the development of Black religious, social, and political activity in North America would be felt from the southern states as far north as what would become New York. Dewulf's analysis focuses on the historical documentation of Afro-Atlantic Catholic rituals, devotions, and social structures. Of particular importance are brotherhood practices, which were critical in the dissemination of Afro-Atlantic Catholic culture among Black communities, a culture that was pre-Tridentine in nature and wary of external influences. These fraternal Black mutual-aid and burial society structures were critically important to the development and resilience of Black Christianity in America through periods of changing social conditions. Afro-Atlantic Catholics: America's First Black Christians (U Notre Dame Press, 2022) shows how a sizable minority of enslaved Africans actively transformed the American Christian landscape and would lay a distinctly Afro-Catholic foundation for African American religious traditions today. This book will appeal to scholars in the history of Christianity, African American and African diaspora studies, and Iberian studies. Allison Isidore is a Religious Studies Ph.D. student at the University of Iowa and is the Assistant Director for the American Catholic Historical Association. Her research interest is focused on the twentieth-century American Civil Rights Movement and the Catholic Church's response to racism and the participation of Catholic clergy, nuns, and laypeople in marches, sit-ins, and kneel-ins during the 1950s and 1960s.

W. Kamau Bell (United Shades of America, We Need to Talk about Cosby) has carved out his own, personalized niche in media, a blend of comedy, documentary, and community. His path didn't always make sense to his peers, but he forged ahead because he felt that his mission was clear. That's just one thing he has in common with Denzel Washington's Eli from the underloved 2010 “post-apocalyptic neo-Western” The Book of Eli.More about Do the Work!***With Jordan Crucchiola and W.

How has hip hop transformed Black Christianity? Dr. Erika Gault, author of the book Networking the Black Church: Digital Black Christians and Hip Hop, joins us to discuss the role hip hop plays among Black Christians. We explore how hip hop and social media have helped people who feel ostracized by traditional Black churches, connections between Christian hip hop and racial justice activism, and what the prevalence of Christian hip hop tells us about the future of Black Christianity in America.

Sam and Emma host Kellie Carter Jackson, Associate Professor of Africana Studies at Wellesley College, to discuss her recent book Force and Freedom: Black Abolitionists and the Politics of Violence, using the influence of Black leaders to explore the growth of the abolitionist movement from moral suasion to an understanding that intrinsic rights cannot be granted. Professor Carter Jackson begins by situating the abolitionist fight back in the early 19th Century under its prevailing narrative of being a white man's burden, with few lasting memories of the Black revolutionaries of the time, exploring how White Christian abolitionists attempted to capitalize on religious rhetoric of guilt and shame, while their slave-owning counterparts looked to the New Testament for a defense of their status as masters. After briefly covering the state of Black Christianity and the self-identification with the Israelites of the Old Testament, Prof. Carter Jackson dives into how Black abolitionists saw the institution of slavery as one started and sustained by violence, and thus one that can only be overturned by violence, looking to the story of John Anderson's escape to Canada, and the rallying of a crowd around his decision to murder a White stalker that followed him in his escape. Next, they dive into the middle of the 19th Century, looking to the Abolitionist papers of the time, and the influence of the 1850 Fugitive Slave Act in pushing Black abolitionists well beyond the acceptance of legitimate violence, effectively shifting the line of freedom to the Canadian border, as she dives into the story of William Parker's Pennsylvania safe house and the Black self-protection societies that worked together to ensure the safety of free folks on the lam. They wrap up the interview by looking to the Haitian Revolution, and the genuine fear it inspired amongst white slave owners, diving into the later white-washing of the Abolitionist and Civil Rights movements away from the legitimacy of violence that actually drove their progress. Sam and Emma also cover Nancy Pelosi finally coming around on legislators not being allowed to act on insider trading, and Rand Paul's reminder that Afghanistan actually owes the US for the decades of exploitation and disaster that we wrought on the country. And in the Fun Half: Sam, Emma, and the MR Crew explore Turkish Martha Stewart's Bitcoin fraud, Greg Gutfeld killing it with the “who's the real Hitler” jokes, and Dan from the center of the PNW calls in to explore the birth of Air America. They also cover the need for aid to Afghanistan, regardless of how much actually goes to the citizens, the Atlantic hires some more whine moms to cover COVID, and Fox News explores America being thrown into the gutter by toothpaste thieves. Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens discuss drug abuse and anti-semitism with glee, Geraldo stuns Dan Bongino and Sean Hannity by stating that drug overdoses are bad, and Dan from SC bonds with Emma over some 2016 election storytelling.

"Blackness is a part of American culture." Too often American Christianity is equated with white Christianity, while expressions of Black Christianity are overlooked. Continuing our series "By the Oppressed, to the Oppressed: How the Marginalized Church Reads Scripture," Esau McCaulley, author of Reading While Black, explains how American Black history has given Black Christians an important lens through which to understand Scripture, and how power can actually be a distorting lens. When people hear biblical interpretations they might have missed because of their own experiences, the narrative can change.  Show notes: 0:27 When we misunderstand what we see and hear 3:08 Black Bible reading 6:33 Expressions of Black Christianity 11:36 Distorting the influence of power 16:03 The "Slave Bible"  23:48 Suffering and biblical interpretation 27:14 The use of the Bible in the Civil War 28:24 We need a fuller range of interpretations  34:33 Reevaluating your theological perspective Show notes by Dominique LaCroix Credits for the music TBM podcast: hebraicthought.org/credits.

Chris and Eddie are joined by Kiese Laymon, a black southern writer, born and raised in Jackson, Mississippi. He is the author of the best-selling memoir “Heavy,” a deeply honest reflection on his complex relationship with his mother, grandmother, anorexia, obesity, sex, writing, and ultimately gambling. The winner of multiple awards, including the Carnegie Medal for Nonfiction, Laymon's writing in “Heavy” and other works exhibits a profound usage of prose and ability to enter into his memories to bring forward a voice that speaks to the experiences of Mississippi, specifically of black Mississippians.Laymon speaks about the important role his grandmother plays in his life, the way in which the influences of our upbringing remain a part of us no matter what changes may come, and the incredible ability of art to unleash heavy truths from things we keep secret. This conversation, but more specifically Laymon's art, speaks directly to the complexities of Mississippi in a way that helps listeners seek more understanding not just of one state, but an entire nation.

"A strange necessity has been laid upon me to devote my life to the central concern that transcends the walls that divide and would achieve in literal fact what is experienced as literal truth: Human life is one and all humans are members of one another" (Howard Thurman, The Luminous Darkness). Sameer Yadav honors Howard Thurman, minister, theologian, philosopher, civil rights activist. Thurman was the author of the influential book, Jesus & the Disinherited, which Martin Luther King, Jr. was known to carry around with him. LinksWho was Howard Thurman?About Jesus & the DisinheritedShow NotesBelonging and connectednessThe trauma of alienation in the Jim Crow segregationVitality of Christian faith and Black Christian resistance to slaveholder Christianity"The humanity we share with Jesus is one that cannot be reduced or dominated, but holds a value in union with God that goes beyond any attempt we can make to manipulate it for our own purposes."Thurman's ministry and theology represents the bringing together of these three themes: (1) divine common ground with all living things, (2) the devastating effects of social injustice on human personhood, and (3) sharing in the humanity of Jesus uniquely revealed in the history of Black suffering and the resilience of Black joy.Christian mystical traditionInfluenced by Ghandi's approach to non-violence (soul force)Jesus and the Disinherited—finding the inward strength to stand up to oppressionMysticism and activism belong in vital connection with each otherThurman's impact on Martin Luther King, Jr. at Boston UniversityMLK was known to carry a copy of Jesus & the Disinherited with him wherever we went.From Preface of Luminous Darkness (1960): "The fact that 25 years of my life were spent in Florida and in Georgia has left deep scars in my spirit and has rendered me terribly sensitive to the churning abyss separating white from black. Living outside of the region, I am aware of the national span of racial prejudice and the virus of segregation that undermines the vitality of American life. Nevertheless, a strange necessity has been laid upon me to devote my life to the central concern that transcends the walls that divide and would achieve in literal fact what is experienced as literal truth: Human life is one and all humans are members of one another. And this insight is spiritual and it its the hard core of religious experience. My roots are deep in the throbbing reality of Negro idiom and from it I draw a full measure of inspiration and vitality. The slaves made a worthless life—the life of chattel property, a mere thing, a body—worth living. They yielded with abiding enthusiasm to a view of life which included all the events of their experience without exhausting themselves in those experiences. To them this quality of life was insistent fact because of that which deeply was within them. They discovered God, who was not or could not be exhausted by any single experience or series of experiences. To know God was to live a life worthy of the loftiest meaning of life. People of all ages and times, slave or free, trained or untutored, who have sensed the same values, are their fellow pilgrims, who journey together with them in increasing self-realization, in quest for the city that has foundations whose builder and maker is God.” About Sameer YadavSameer Yadav (Th.D. Duke Divinity School) is Associate Professor of Religious Studies at Westmont College in Santa Barbara, CA. His research areas are in the philosophy and theology of religious experience, race and religion, and the theological interpretation of Scripture. He is the author of The Problem of Perception and the Experience of God: Toward a Theological Empiricism (Fortress Press, 2015), a number of articles published in various journals such as The Journal of Analytic Theology, Faith and Philosophy, and The Journal of Religion among others, as well as a number of chapters in edited volumes.

Many years of experience and witnessing, I break my silence about my personal issues of religious oppression.

This conversation features Rev. Dr. Wayne Croft, the Jeremiah A. Wright Sr. Associate Professor of Homiletics and Liturgics in African American Studies. We discuss his recently published book, A History of the Black Baptist Church: I Don't Feel No Ways Tired.

Independent curator, Faron Manuel and Jamaal Barber of Studio Noize Podcast interview Frank Mitchell, curator of the exhibition Afrocosmologies: American Reflections at Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art for this episode of BAIA Talks. Afrocosmologies: American Reflections October 19, 2019 – January 20, 2020 Black artists explore spirituality and culture in Afrocosmologies: American Reflections. Alongside artists of the late-nineteenth century, contemporary artists define new ideas about spirituality, identity, and the environment in ways that move beyond traditional narratives of Black Christianity. In dialogue, these works acknowledge a continuing body of beliefs—a cosmology—that incorporates the centrality of nature, ritual, and relationships between the human and the divine. Emerging from the rich religious and aesthetic traditions of West Africa and the Americas, these works present a dynamic cosmos of influences that shape Contemporary art. The exhibition brings together the work of an incredible assortment of artists including Romare Bearden, Dawoud Bey, Elizabeth Catlett, Willie Cole, Melvin Edwards, Titus Kaphar, Lois Mailou Jones, Kerry James Marshall, Alison Saar, Hale Woodruff, Shinique Smith, and Kehinde Wiley along with many additional artists of note. It is accompanied by a 156-page, fully illustrated catalogue with essays by Frank Mitchell, Berrisford Boothe, Claudia Highbaugh, and Kristin Hass.

Hey ya’ll hey! Thanks for tuning into Episode 31 of Tellemtiptoldyou. On today’s episode, I rant about Kanye’s disingenuous appeal to Black Christianity as repeating R. Kelly’s same move in trying to garner our forgiveness. I argue that we did not grant Chrisette Michelle (nor any other Black woman) such forgiveness on a large scale. Such disparity is discussed as a mark of misogynoir marks a couple of other things discussed this week from TI’s coercion of his daughter to have her hymen examined yearly to the foolish trolling we’ve suffered about the Harriet film. Speaking of the Harriet film, you should go see it and you should absolutely download my reflection guide to use to discuss the film with your families.

Episode 726: I want to be clear upfront. I am not criticizing the family of Botham Jean for forgiving Amber Guyger. However, they need to heal is their business and theirs alone. However, this episode is about the requirement America places on Black Christians to constantly forgive their abusers. When has America ever shown Black people the amount of mercy they require from Black people!?

On today's episode Kenan and Jules start off the show on a more serious note discussing Kamala Harris and why the black elite's support of her shows how much they don't care about black society. Later, Kenan asks Julien why is it sexual harassment to ask a woman for a sexual favor in return for a product or service instead of money?

This week the ATI crew start the first episode in a series discussing the trend of believers of African descent leaving organized Christianity for more traditional African spirituality.

Black Christianity is different from White Christianity... Shouldn't be...but it is. It's the reality created by the sin of White supremacy. But more than simple conjecture...beyond simply throwing out some charged statement, what is the basis of this claim? What makes this claim undeniable? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB8nad-vSJ0 "Slaves be obedient to your masters..." That's the legacy many of us think belongs to Black Christianity. And when - even in 2018 - I see Black Christians celebrating America's Founding Fathers with religious devotion, I can't help but think: We're still being obedient... But is that a true accounting of Black Christianity? Is Black Christianity really the docile faith that White supremacy gave us...or is there something more? Growing up in the Caribbean, I could never vibe with the weakheart identity of the Black Church. It was completely foreign to the Caribbean experience. Partly because most of the Caribbean was either liberated by revolt or has an undeniable legacy of revolt. Partly because the prevalence of Black leadership and the absence of White overseers changes your whole perspective. It's why, when I was in seminary, I felt free to challenge and criticize White supremacy in the seminary curriculum and on campus. Being from a Caribbean Diocese, I didn't have to worry that I wouldn't be ordained because I had pissed off White folk... Nevertheless, that dynamic of fear is prevalent in the US... Even the Black Church, at some level - if you get up high enough, answers to the Whites society. Black Christianity in America seems to have a responsibility to uphold White supremacy - if only to "protect" the faithful from White tyranny. The result is obedience to our (former) slave masters... But years ago I came across a priest who showed me something entirely different about Black Christianity...about the faith of African people in America. And what he shared completely transformed the way I viewed the Black Church - historically and in the present. It's transformed the way I embrace the Christian faith. And because it's so incredibly revealing, I had to share it with you in this episode. After you check it out, hop over to the Facebook group and engage the discussion. And if you aren't yet a member of the group...   What do you think of Fr. Alexii's view of the African Christian Faith? And how does that reframe your understanding of - and witness to - Christianity?

This week the ATI crew discuss: - Is the gospel still enough for Christians who are black? - Is racism viewed with the same level of empathy & support as sexism? - Are multi-ethnic spaces the solution to racial issues in the church? - The archbishop of Cantebury's remarks regarding 45's support from christians

Africans arriving in the U.S. as slaves brought with them animistic religious experiences similar to the experiences of Native Americans. As many as 20 percent of slaves imported to the U.S. had also experienced Islam. The "invisible religion" that took shape among slaves was a folk Christianity shaped by owners' desires to foster subservience and obedience and African Americans' need to deal with oppression. Black Christianity early identified with the bondage and travails of the Jewish Scriptures more strongly than the life and Passion of Christ. Jesus, for African Americans, became the combined figure of Moses-Jesus. In public life, Lincoln was Father Abraham. As the "theologian of democracy," he held the entire nation responsible for slavery and argued for the redemptive power of egalitarian democracy. His death made of him the Christ figure of American democracy.
