Eerdmans Publishing Company20131 online resource (160 pages)Prophetic ChristianityBibliographic Level Mode of Issuance: MonographIncludes bibliographical references and index.Black religion and nihilism -- Empire and black suffering -- Resistance, rage, and revolution -- Profits versus prophets -- Dark waters -- No ways tired -- Building the world house.Johnny Bernard Hill argues that prophetic rage, or righteous anger, is a necessary response to our present culture of imperialism and nihilism. The most powerful way to resist meaninglessness, he says, is refusing to accept the realities of structural injustice, such as poverty, escalating militarism, genocide, and housing discrimination. Hill's Prophetic Rage is interdisciplinary, integrating art, music, and literature with theology. It is constructive, passionate, and provocative. Hill weaves through a myriad of creative and prophetic voices of protest -- from Jesus to W.E.B. DuBois, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, and President Barack Obama -- as well as multiple approaches, including liberation theology and black religion, to reflect theologically on the nature of liberation, justice, and hope on contemporary culture.Liberation theologyPostcolonial theologyLiberation theology.Postcolonial theology.230.0464Hill Johnny BernardautMiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910797412503321Prophetic rage3712735UNINA
