Book Synopsis Reading While Black by : Esau McCaulley
Download or read book Reading While Black written by Esau McCaulley and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2020-09-01 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Growing up in the American South, Esau McCaulley knew firsthand the ongoing struggle between despair and hope that marks the lives of some in the African American context. A key element in the fight for hope, he discovered, has long been the practice of Bible reading and interpretation that comes out of traditional Black churches. This ecclesial tradition is often disregarded or viewed with suspicion by much of the wider church and academy, but it has something vital to say. Reading While Black is a personal and scholarly testament to the power and hope of Black biblical interpretation. At a time in which some within the African American community are questioning the place of the Christian faith in the struggle for justice, New Testament scholar McCaulley argues that reading Scripture from the perspective of Black church tradition is invaluable for connecting with a rich faith history and addressing the urgent issues of our times. He advocates for a model of interpretation that involves an ongoing conversation between the collective Black experience and the Bible, in which the particular questions coming out of Black communities are given pride of place and the Bible is given space to respond by affirming, challenging, and, at times, reshaping Black concerns. McCaulley demonstrates this model with studies on how Scripture speaks to topics often overlooked by white interpreters, such as ethnicity, political protest, policing, and slavery. Ultimately McCaulley calls the church to a dynamic theological engagement with Scripture, in which Christians of diverse backgrounds dialogue with their own social location as well as the cultures of others. Reading While Black moves the conversation forward.
Book Synopsis Let the Men Fight! by : Gregory G. Ogle
Download or read book Let the Men Fight! written by Gregory G. Ogle and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2006-06-28 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Involvement by men, especially African American men, in the Christian church has always been notoriously sparse. Pastors, seminary scholars, and Christian leaders, male and female, have pondered the problem, but it remains a question. The women ask, “What is wrong with the brothers?” My response is, “Why does it have to be something wrong with the brothers?” Could it be that as African American males want to hear something other than what is being preached? Have we considered preaching the Gospel of Christ from a masculine perspective? Is it possible that because the majority of churches are 70% female, that the Good News is inadvertently preached by male and female preachers from an implicit female perspective? Perhaps preachers are subconsciously more concerned with maintaining the satisfaction of the bulk of the tithing parishioners, who are women? Let the Men Fight challenges the notion that the fault resides with African American men, and strives to provide a “male sensitive” Word. However, there is a caveat. The warning is, upon learning and accepting the truth, God expects us to go tell and teach others. Matthew 28:19-20 says, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. 20. Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you and lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.”
Book Synopsis Black LGBT Health in the United States by : Lourdes Dolores Follins

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black LGBT Health in the United States: The Intersection of Race, Gender, and Sexual Orientation focuses on the mental, physical, and spiritual aspects of health, and considers both risk and resiliency factors for the Black LGBT population. Contributors to this collection intimately understand the associations between health and intersectional anti-Black racism, heterosexism, homonegativity, biphobia, transphobia, and social class. This collection fills a gap in current scholarship by providing information about an array of health issues like cancer, juvenile incarceration, and depression that affect all subpopulations of Black LGBT people, especially Black bisexual-identified women, Black bisexual-identified men, and Black transgender men. This book is recommended for readers interested in psychology, health, gender studies, race studies, social work, and sociology.
Book Synopsis Perceptions of a Black Man by : Wallace Hall
Download or read book Perceptions of a Black Man written by Wallace Hall and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2023-03-28 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perceptions of a Black Man is about African Americans and White people. It discusses how the relationship between White people and African Americans started and how it evolved. It shows you how the Founding Fathers of America used the government of this country to undermine African Americans, and it lets you see how African Americans were subjugated. This book discusses how African Americans were able to overcome their subjugation, and it shows you how the election of President Obama made America a new nation, discussing some of the things he did as president. It shows you what Donald Trump did as president, and it discusses the challenges facing Joe Biden as president. Democrats and Republicans want to lead in America, and this book gives the reader an opportunity to decide which of these political parties should lead. White people helped African Americans change America, and I believe White people and African Americans will continue working together to change America into a color-blind society. This book also aims to make the reader see how police officers and the Black Lives Matter organization have factored into the relationship between White people and African Americans.
Book Synopsis The Plight of African-American Males by : Rev. Dr. Freddie A. Banks Jr.
Download or read book The Plight of African-American Males written by Rev. Dr. Freddie A. Banks Jr. and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-07-17 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a riveting and emotionally charged with information on the plight of African American males and their transformations from the boyhood to manhood. By plight, I mean the conditions, problems, and difficulties that prohibit our young gifted African American males from becoming viable, useful, successful, productive citizens in our society. The reader will discover compelling and disturbing information, which is subtle and provocative, in the book about what it means to be alive in the twenty-first century, especially, but not exclusively, for young African American males. The transformation of the African American male is one of the greatest challenges that has confronted the African American community. This is not merely one-dimensional or a single-layer problem. I believe that the enormity, complexity, and scope of the crisis of the African American males are astounding in the American society today. In many ways, it is a kin to a tsunami that possesses the potential to annihilate everything in its wake. One can pick up this book, and it will become part of you until you reach the end, for it is one of the most interesting and creative books you will ever read. This incredible story is about how the plight of one’s life can be turned around through the process of transformation of the African American male.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black America stands over the spiritual abyss if we continue down the paths we are currently taking, we will be extinct by 2040 Inside this book lies scriptural answers to many problems that plague the black community today, Answers that are practical and down to earth, and not mere theoretical conjecture. It is there if we know where and how to look. Problem such as: Why blacks can't seem to have unity? Why we fill the prisons? Why black women get involved with thugs and why do thugs have an easy time getting women (white or black) Why many women (white and black) can't break away from toxic men? What the black man must do to save himself, his women and children? What is the African-Americans relationship with ancient Israel? Are blacks cursed and will the curse be lifted? What is the impact of Homosexuality on black Americans? Why are 70% of African-American children born into fatherless Homes? Why are 72% of African-American women unmarried? These are not answers from so-called experts or talking heads. These are from God's word and they apply today, not just in Biblical times. Ask yourself some deep questions. Are you tired of getting your butt kicked by every one self? Are you brotha's tired of having to deal with whorish women? Are you tired of whore-mongering and abusive men? Are you tired of struggling to overcome your own inner demons? Do you want to be able to experience Peace that is beyond understanding ? and you want to be able to experience it now not having to just wait for it in the hereafter? These and many other questions are answered in scripture. Chances are you have been taught God's word through a preacher or T.V. Evangelist. You need to read God's Word as if he were talking to you directly because he is. Read, Study, Pray, Love and Live.
Book Synopsis If God Still Breathes, Why Can't I? by : Angela N. Parker
Download or read book If God Still Breathes, Why Can't I? written by Angela N. Parker and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2021-09-14 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A challenge to the doctrine of biblical inerrancy that calls into question how Christians are taught more about the way of Whiteness than the way of Jesus Angela Parker wasn’t just trained to be a biblical scholar; she was trained to be a White male biblical scholar. She is neither White nor male. Dr. Parker’s experience of being taught to forsake her embodied identity in order to contort herself into the stifling construct of Whiteness is common among American Christians, regardless of their race, ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation. This book calls the power structure behind this experience what it is: White supremacist authoritarianism. Drawing from her perspective as a Womanist New Testament scholar, Dr. Parker describes how she learned to deconstruct one of White Christianity’s most pernicious lies: the conflation of biblical authority with the doctrines of inerrancy and infallibility. As Dr. Parker shows, these doctrines are less about the text of the Bible itself and more about the arbiters of its interpretation—historically, White males in positions of power who have used Scripture to justify control over marginalized groups. This oppressive use of the Bible has been suffocating. To learn to breathe again, Dr. Parker says, we must “let God breathe in us.” We must read the Bible as authoritative, but not authoritarian. We must become conscious of the particularity of our identities, as we also become conscious of the particular identities of the biblical authors from whom we draw inspiration. And we must trust and remember that as long as God still breathes, we can too.

Book Synopsis The New Shape of World Christianity by : Mark A. Noll
Download or read book The New Shape of World Christianity written by Mark A. Noll and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2010-01-25 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2010 Christianity Today Book Award winner With characteristic rigor and insight, in this book Mark Noll revisits the history of the American church in the context of world events. He makes the compelling case that how Americans have come to practice the Christian faith is just as globally important as what the American church has done in the world. Noll backs up this substantial claim with the scholarly attentiveness we've come to expect from him, lucidly explaining the relationship between the development of Christianity in North America and the development of Christianity in the rest of the world, with attention to recent transfigurations in world Christianity. Here is a book that will challenge your assumptions about the nature of the relationship between the American church and the global church in the past and predict what world Christianity may look like.
Book Synopsis Who Writes for Black Children? by : Katharine Capshaw
Download or read book Who Writes for Black Children? written by Katharine Capshaw and published by U of Minnesota Press. This book was released on 2017-05-30 with total page 609 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Until recently, scholars believed that African American children’s literature did not exist before 1900. Now, Who Writes for Black Children? opens the door to a rich archive of largely overlooked literature read by black children. This volume’s combination of analytic essays, bibliographic materials, and primary texts offers alternative histories for early African American literary studies and children’s literature studies. From poetry written by a slave for a plantation school to joyful “death biographies” of African Americans in the antebellum North to literature penned by African American children themselves, Who Writes for Black Children? presents compelling new definitions of both African American literature and children’s literature. Editors Katharine Capshaw and Anna Mae Duane bring together a rich collection of essays that argue for children as an integral part of the nineteenth-century black community and offer alternative ways to look at the relationship between children and adults. Including two bibliographic essays that provide a list of texts for future research as well as an extensive selection of hard-to-find primary texts, Who Writes for Black Children? broadens our ideas of authorship, originality, identity, and political formations. In the process, the volume adds new texts to the canon of African American literature while providing a fresh perspective on our desire for the literary origin stories that create canons in the first place.
