Summary

We had a bunch of questions and we attempted to answer them! The questions came from all the cool people in our Black Theology reading group. If you want to join and get access to the readings, deep dive lectures, and more than head over here. Here's the books we recommended: Making a Way Out of No Way: a Womanist Theology The Claim to Christianity: Responding to the Far Right Jon Sobrino: Spiritual Writings The Christian Imagination: Theology and the Origins of Race Race: A Theological Account Religion of the Field Negro: On Black Secularism and Black Theology For the Life of the World: Theology That Makes a Difference   Dr. Adam Clark is Associate Professor of Theology at Xavier University. He is committed to the idea that theological education in the twenty first century must function as a counter-story. One that equips us to read against the grain of the dominant culture and inspires one to live into the Ignatian dictum of going forth "to set the world on fire." To this end, Dr. Clark is intentional about pedagogical practices that raise critical consciousness by going beneath surface meanings, unmasking conventional wisdoms and reimagining the good. He currently serves as co-chair of Black Theology Group at the American Academy of Religion, actively publishes in the area of black theology and black religion and participates in social justice groups at Xavier and in the Cincinnati area. He earned his PhD at Union Theological Seminary in New York where he was mentored by James Cone. Follow the podcast, drop a review, send feedback/questions or become a member of the HBC Community.
