In Black Bodies and the Black Church , author Kelly Douglas Brown develops a blues crossroad theology, which allows the Black church to remain true to itself and relevant in Black lives. 330 $a"There is a problem in the black church. It is a problem with black bodies and a blues problem. This book addresses these problems head-on. It proclaims that as long as the black church cannot be a home for certain bodies, such as LGBT bodies, then it has forsaken its very black faith identity. The black church must find a way back to itself. Kelly Brown Douglas argues that the way back is through the blues."--Publisher's website. 410 0$aBlack Religion/Womanist Thought/Social Justice 606 $aAfrican American churches 606 $aBlack theology 606 $aAfrican Americans$xReligion 606 $aBlack people$xReligion 606 $aDiscrimination$xReligious aspects$xChristianity 606 $aChristianity$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A3000 606 $aCultural and Media Studies, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/400000 606 $aSociology of Religion$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22210 606 $aHistory of Religion$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A7000 606 $aGender Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X35000 606 $aPerforming Arts$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/415030 615 0$aAfrican American churches. 615 0$aBlack theology. 615 0$aAfrican Americans$xReligion 615 0$aBlack people$xReligion 615 0$aDiscrimination$xReligious aspects$xChristianity. 615 14$aChristianity. 615 24$aCultural and Media Studies, general. 615 24$aSociology of Religion. 615 24$aHistory of Religion. 615 24$aGender Studies. 615 24$aPerforming Arts. 676 $a270.08996073 676 $a277.30089/96073 676 $a277.3008996073 700 $aDouglas$b Kelly Brown$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01610500 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910809291203321 996 $aBlack bodies and the Black church$93938280 997 $aUNINA
