Living Black Theology: Decolonizing Knowledge

by Anthony G. Reddie

Living Black Theology provides a challenging and radical critique of the present world order. It argues that the world as we experience it presently has its roots in the era of slavery and European colonialism, especially the British empire, the largest example of imperialism in human history. Written by the first Professor of Black Theology in the history of the University of Oxford, Living Black Theology offers a bold reassessment of how we can rethink the past that will challenge our contemporary ways of living. Ultimately, this text seeks to help us reimage and remake the future, one that is more equitable and just for all peoples. This is a landmark book.
