The institutional structures of white supremacy--slavery, Jim Crow laws, convict leasing, and mass incarceration--require a commonsense belief that black people lack the moral and intellectual capacities of white people. It is through this lens of belief that racial exclusions have been justified and reproduced in the United States. Televised Redemption argues that African American religious media has long played a key role in humanizing the race by unabashedly claiming that blacks are endowed by God with the same gifts of goodness and reason as whites--if not more, thereby legitimizing black Americans' rights to citizenship. If racism is a form of perception, then religious media has not only altered how others perceive blacks, but has also altered how blacks perceive themselves. Televised Redemption argues that black religious media has provided black Americans with new conceptual and practical tools for how to be in the world, and changed how black people are made intelligible and recognizable as moral citizens. In order to make these claims to black racial equality, this media has encouraged dispositional changes in adherents that were at times empowering and at other times repressive. From Christian televangelism to Muslim periodicals to Hebrew Israelite radio, Televised Redemption explores the complicated but critical redemptive history of African American religious media. 606 $aTelevision in religion$zUnited States 606 $aTelevision broadcasting$xReligious aspects 606 $aReligion on television 606 $aAfrican Americans$xReligion 606 $aTelevision in religion$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01146925 606 $aTelevision broadcasting$xReligious aspects$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01146758 606 $aReligion on television$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01737566 606 $aAfrican Americans$xReligion$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00799689 606 $aSOCIAL SCIENCE$xMedia Studies$2bisacsh 606 $aRELIGION$xReference$2bisacsh 606 $aRELIGION$xEssays$2bisacsh 606 $aRELIGION$xComparative Religion$2bisacsh 607 $aUnited States$2fast 615 7$aTelevision in religion 615 7$aTelevision broadcasting$xReligious aspects. 615 7$aReligion on television. 615 7$aAfrican Americans$xReligion. 615 7$aTelevision in religion. 615 7$aTelevision broadcasting$xReligious aspects. 615 7$aReligion on television. 615 7$aAfrican Americans$xReligion. 615 7$aSOCIAL SCIENCE$xMedia Studies. 615 7$aRELIGION$xReference. 615 7$aRELIGION$xEssays. 615 7$aRELIGION$xComparative Religion. 676 $a200.89/96 700 $aRouse$b Carolyn Moxley$f1965-$01483063 702 $aFrederick$b Marla Faye$f1972-$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aJackson$b John L.$cJr.,$f1971-,$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910798997003321 996 $aTelevised Redemption$93759503 997 $aUNINA
