Challenging the dominant approaches to the history and legacy of slavery in the British Empire, the contributors show that although the 1807 act abolished the slave trade, it did not end racism, notions of White supremacy, or the demonization of Blackness, Black people and Africa. This interdisciplinary study draws on biblical studies, history, missiology and Black theological reflection, exploring the strengths and limitations of faith as the framework for abolitionist rhetoric andBlack theologySlaveryReligious aspectsRace discriminationReligious aspectsChristianityElectronic books.Black theology.SlaveryReligious aspects.Race discriminationReligious aspectsChristianity.230.089/96Reddie Anthony857183MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910458843103321Black theology, slavery, and contemporary Christianity2003220UNINA
