Description

In this timely, much-needed book, theologian, social psychologist, and activist Christena Cleveland recounts her personal journey to dismantle the cultural “whitemalegod” and uncover the Sacred Black Feminine, introducing a Black Female God who imbues us with hope, healing, and liberating presence.

For years, Christena Cleveland spoke about racial reconciliation to congregations, justice organizations, and colleges. But she increasingly felt she could no longer trust in the God she’d been implicitly taught to worship—a white male God who preferentially empowered white men despite his claim to love all people. A God who clearly did not relate to, advocate for, or affirm a Black woman like Christena.

Her crisis of faith sent her on an intellectual and spiritual journey through history and across France, on a 400-mile walking pilgrimage to the ancient shrines of Black Madonnas to find healing in the Sacred Black Feminine. God Is a Black Woman is the chronicle of her liberating transformation and a critique of a society shaped  by white patriarchal Christianity and culture. Christena reveals how America’s collective idea of God as a white man has perpetuated hurt, hopelessness, and racial and gender oppression. Integrating her powerful personal story, womanist ideology, as well as theological, historical, and social science research, she invites us to take seriously the truth that God is not white nor male and gives us a new and hopeful path for connecting with the divine and honoring the sacredness of all Black people.

Not what I expected at all….

This book was extremely strange and angry… which I understand based on the subject. It lacks a multi countries flavour and multi cultural viewpoint …on oppression religious beliefs and racial control…

however… not everyone believes in a white man god… if I am correct …muslims are a large part of the world population as are Buddhist’s ? And their profits or teachers are brown just like Jesus?

Awful human beliefs and awful human behaviour cannot really be blocked into such a limited view that only black people experience racism, poverty, and loss???when really poverty and greed are the roots of so much evil bringing in soo sooo many cultures. Brown,yellow, white or red…. The desire for profit and power is not just a white human phenomenon.

This book reads like one woman’s saga into finding and following her own faith and spirituality…. And if that’s what you’re looking for… this book is exactly that.

Being a white woman who grew up in an all white Canadian community… this was a very weird book….

And no matter how hard I try listen and work on understanding this view point I found it kind of gross, broad banding and repetitive… white women, white men, white god….are bad bad bad…the extreme judgment is totally okay?( as long as your a frustrated non white human)…subjectivity just felt like a genuine flipping of the script of blame to all white instead of all black…. Felt and read like…a simplistic slippery slope of unstable emotional logic. I would have preferred actual historic facts and a culturally varied views over a personal story of blame and anger. I don’t actually recommend this book
