Opis

Black and Liberation Theology: An African Perspective for University and Seminary Students is a scholarly and contextual theological work that explores the intersection of Black Theology and Liberation Theology within the African historical, social, and religious experience. Written with a focus on African realities, the book seeks to address the spiritual, political, economic, and cultural struggles of oppressed peoples in Africa, especially in post-colonial contexts, using the liberating message of the Christian gospel.The book begins by tracing the roots of Black Theology in the African-American experience, particularly in the civil rights movement, and Liberation Theology in Latin American contexts. It then shifts to the African scene, examining how colonialism, apartheid, neocolonialism, poverty, and systemic injustice have impacted African societies and Christian practice. The authors argue for a theology that is not abstract or Eurocentric but rooted in the lived realities of African people.
