Produktbeschreibung
Addressing a significant gap in the field, Introduction to Religions of the African Diaspora brings together key themes-Africa, the Diaspora, colonialism, race, Black identity, and religion-into one cohesive and accessible volume. >The book thoughtfully engages with both Western European and U.S. cultural norms, bringing them into conversation with the worldviews and values embedded within African and Diasporan religious traditions. By offering these comparative insights, the text serves as a valuable resource for students across disciplines, including religious studies, international studies, and history. Designed as an accessible and engaging introduction, the book is ideal for undergraduate courses and provides clear definitions and contextual explanations to support student comprehension. Each chapter is framed with a broad, inclusive lens and acknowledges the diversity of student backgrounds, including those engaged in mission work or service projects by providing them the critical tools needed for thoughtful and respectful engagement with African and diasporic communities.
