商品簡介
Hayes (systematic theology, Georgetown U.) describes the origins of African American spirituality and relevant developments in history (including the Civil War and Reconstruction, the Jim Crow era and the civil rights movement) while considering how African American spirituality manifests itself in cultural contexts with a focus on black leaders and black women. Accessible and impeccably researched, this powerful tracing of spirituality from African tradition to modern day experience provides a broad overview of the subject, illustrating how the development of a vibrant spirituality has both influenced and been influenced by African American history.
