Book Synopsis White Fragility by : Dr. Robin DiAngelo
Download or read book White Fragility written by Dr. Robin DiAngelo and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2018-06-26 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times best-selling book exploring the counterproductive reactions white people have when their assumptions about race are challenged, and how these reactions maintain racial inequality. In this “vital, necessary, and beautiful book” (Michael Eric Dyson), antiracist educator Robin DiAngelo deftly illuminates the phenomenon of white fragility and “allows us to understand racism as a practice not restricted to ‘bad people’ (Claudia Rankine). Referring to the defensive moves that white people make when challenged racially, white fragility is characterized by emotions such as anger, fear, and guilt, and by behaviors including argumentation and silence. These behaviors, in turn, function to reinstate white racial equilibrium and prevent any meaningful cross-racial dialogue. In this in-depth exploration, DiAngelo examines how white fragility develops, how it protects racial inequality, and what we can do to engage more constructively.
Book Synopsis Africa’S Priceless Heritage by : Clifford Chaukura
Download or read book Africa’S Priceless Heritage written by Clifford Chaukura and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2015-04-08 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Scriptures foresaw that God would justify the gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham, All nations will be blessed through you. So those who have faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith ( Galatians 3:6-9). Does the course pronounced to Canaan by Noah as recorded in Genesis 9 have any impact on Africa today? What did it really imply then and thereafter? What does appreciating ones identity and heritage affect his/her bearing in life as a whole? These and some other related pertinent questions need answers today. Therefore, in this book, Clifford Chaukura tries to elaborate such historical, theological, and philosophical matters as he takes pains to dispel some myths that have hampered the progress of the gospel work for centuries now.

Book Synopsis The American Church in Black and White by : Gregory Emanuel Bryant
Download or read book The American Church in Black and White written by Gregory Emanuel Bryant and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2016-05-14 with total page 451 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The American Church in Black and White is a book born out of the authors love for Gods church. It was shaped and given form and text in the crucible of the authors experience as a pastor of several Indiana congregationscongregations that attempted to create a Christian, counter-narrative, to the tragic narrative and legacy of our nations history of slavery and racism. Cautiously optimistic in tone, the author posits that if the American church is going to live into Christs prayer request for His church to be one (John 17:21), if the church is going to deal effectively with the fallen powers and win people to the Lord, then Christians will have to face and overcome the complex and tragic history of racial antipathy in this country; also, the church will have to learn how to successfully navigate a spiritual and cultural minefield. The author has distilled the three main cultural controversies (mines) that can explode/implode the churchs intercultural hopes, down to:1) Culturally-Based Worship Preferences 2) Culturally-Based Views on Ministerial Authority, and 3) Biblical Hermeneutics in Black and White. It is the authors conviction that in spite of these areas of potential conflict, God has given the church the power to become an intercultural community that is distinctive, attractive, and authentically Christian

This book was released on 2008-01-31 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Serpent Told the Truth! But he is called the Devil. And though LORD God admitted to the truth, he still cursed all mankind plus GOD's creation. Though he is the evil one, he is worshipped as a loving God! And his children act out of his evil nature universally. Dr. Alonzo Fleming Jr. presents a compelling case against LORD God. He is willing to say what everyone is thinking! For centuries, man has resisted and quieted the voice inside his own head that asks the obvious questions: "How could God curse his own children and creation, then call it love? How could he tell everyone else to love their enemies, yet he gladly kills his own? How could he instruct us to bless and not curse, yet he curses? Why would God set his children up to die, in the first place?" We challenge the reader to consider what we say in the light of the world's present condition. Who is controlling the present world? He that blessed, or he that cursed? Be instructed.
Book Synopsis Care for the Mental and Spiritual Health of Black Men by : Nicholas Grier

This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black men need hope to survive and, ultimately, flourish.

These are not separate from spiritual health and growth, as well, but both are integral to holistic, dynamic wellbeing.

As such, this volume will be a vital resource for health practitioners, spiritual caregivers, and providers in community care who serve to bolster the mental wellbeing of Black men.
Book Synopsis Revives My Soul Again by : Lewis V. Baldwin
Download or read book Revives My Soul Again written by Lewis V. Baldwin and published by Fortress Press. This book was released on 2018-11-01 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: MLK and the Practice of Spirituality The scholarship on Martin Luther King Jr. is seriously lacking in terms of richly nuanced and revelatory treatments of his spirituality and spiritual life. This book addresses this neglect by focusing on King's life as a paradigm of a deep, vital, engaging, balanced, and contagious spirituality. It shows that the essence of the person King was lies in the quality of his own spiritual journey and how that translated into not only a personal devotional life of prayer, meditation, and fasting but also a public ministry that involved the uplift and empowerment of humanity. Much attention is devoted to King's spiritual leadership, to his sense of the civil rights movement as "a spiritual movement," and to his efforts to rescue humanity from what he termed a perpetual "death of the spirit." Readers encounter a figure who took seriously the personal, interpersonal, and sociopolitical aspects of the Christian faith, thereby figuring prominently in recasting the very definition of spirituality in his time. King's "holistic spirituality" is presented here with a clarity and power fresh for our own generation.

Book Synopsis Blood in Their Eyes by : Grif Stockley
Download or read book Blood in Their Eyes written by Grif Stockley and published by University of Arkansas Press. This book was released on 2004-07-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2002 Booker Worthen Literary Prize American Association of State and Local History Award 2003 In late September 1919, black sharecroppers met to protest unfair settlements for their cotton crops from white plantation owners. Local law enforcement broke up the union's meeting, and the next day a thousand white men from the Delta—and troops of the U.S. Army itself—converged on Phillips County, Arkansas, to "put down" the black sharecroppers' "insurrection." In riveting, novelistic prose, writer and Delta native Grif Stockley considers the evidence and tells the full story of this incident for the first time, concluding that black people were murdered in Elaine by white mobs and federal soldiers. Five white men died as a result of the conflict; contemporary estimates of African American deaths ranged from 20 to an even more horrifying 856. White officials jailed hundreds of black workers, torturing some of them. Twelve black men were charged with first-degree murder. Their legal battles lasted six years, but national and local silence has persisted much longer. Stockley takes on this silence and shows that it resulted from sustained official efforts to convince the public that only blacks who had resisted lawful authority were killed. He shows too that it is part of a larger silence in which the fear and terror that were the daily staples of the African American experience have been summed up all too easily in the term "Jim Crow" in a failure to fully confront the anguish of the period.
Book Synopsis Black Spirituality and Black Consciousness by : Carlyle Fielding Stewart
Download or read book Black Spirituality and Black Consciousness written by Carlyle Fielding Stewart and published by Africa Research and Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: African American spirituality plays a central role in the formation and practice of Black freedom in America. This freedom is primarily spiritual and cultural and has a significant role in shaping Black consciousness, behavior and belief.It has created a cultural archive or black culture soul, which shapes the colors, content, timber and texture of the African American communities.Unlike other paradigms which posit the social, political and economic imperatives of freedom, the African American model stipulates the vital role of Black spirituality. This spirituality embodies the creation and sustenance of Black culture, establishes psychological and spiritual relocation in response to oppression, and equips African Americans with the spiritual tools for their physical, vocational and institutional survival.A central thesis of the book is that African American spirituality, by the way it shapes and informs black life, creates a unique praxis of freedom. Most importantly is the way Black spirituality is expressed in Black culture, the Black church and Black life values.Creativity is, therefore, essential to freedom. That freedom is manifested in everything from the development of jazz as a sui generis and indigenous art form, to the ways Black people walk, talk, interpret and oppositionally express themselves in the world.Such creativity is indispensable to the formation and preservation of Black life. It has been used by African Americans as a powerful weapon in maintaining identity and creating a spirituality of culture and a culture of spirituality, which have largely thwarted their complete psychological and physical annihilatio
