And still we rise

de Diana L. Hayes · Publicada por primera vez en 1996

Clearly articulating what it means to be Black and Christian, Diana Hayes invites readers to a greater understanding of the major issues, ideas, concerns, and proponents of Black theology. She explores the sources of Black theology from within the Black historical experience and takes readers from the roots of Black theology in Africa, through the revivals of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and the civil rights and Black Power movements, to the beginnings of a systematic theology of liberation. Hayes closes her book with a clear and passionate discussion of her vision for the future that reaches out to both a popular and a scholarly audience. And Still We Rise is a book that answers questions of the heart and soul of a people. This compelling work is certainly not to be missed.
