Moved by the Spirit: Religion and the Movement for Black Lives explores the religious and theological significance of the Black Lives Matter Movement. The volume argues for engaging the complex ways religion is present in the movement as well as how the movement is changing religion. The contributors analyze this relationship from a variety of religious and theological perspectives on public protest, the meaning of freedom, Black humanity, the arts and practices of Black religious culture, and the transformation of Black religious communities. The volume reveals that the Movement for Black Lives is changing our understanding of religious experience and communities.

Recenzii

Since first landing on these shores in 1619, each generation of Black people has faced the continual assault on the simple idea that our lives have meaning. Often lethal, almost always violent, this ever present attack on Black Life has also given rise in each generation to social and political resistance. The chroniclers of that resistance have given not just voice to the moment but also inspiration to later generations. Moved By The Spirit joins the library of texts made sacred as witness to the Black struggle for life. This book's value for today is immense. Its contribution to the future inestimable.
A radically democratic movement requires a radically democratic imagination. The Movement for Black Lives is not only one of the most important political movements of the 21st century, but it is also an intellectual revolution that forces us to fundamentally rethink the foundations of religion. This carefully curated collection of essays offers readers a critical cartography of the new landscape of religion in our time while providing the conceptual tools to comprehend the risks of faith that underwrite the actions of a new generation of activists in the struggle for deep democracy.
More than a decade after Trayvon Martin's murder Moved by the Spirit: Religion and the Movement for Black Lives is a theological-anthropological "call to conscience". This compilation of essays, a critique of fundamentalism in Black religious spaces and White Christian Nationalism and a deep analysis of Black agency in response to and in concert with the Holy Spirit, is a timely gift to the academy, the church, and society.
