Reading While Black: African American Biblical Interpretation as an Exercise in Hope
Esau Mccauley
Reading While Black is a personal and scholarly testament to the power and hope of Black biblical interpretation. At a time in which some within the African American community are questioning the place of the Christian faith in the struggle for justice, New Testament scholar McCaulley argues that reading Scripture from the perspective of Black church tradition is invaluable for connecting with a rich faith history and addressing the urgent issues of our times.

You will be guided in thinking through concrete solutions for improved race relations and a racially inclusive church.
