The book features unheard voices of individuals experiencing economic deprivation and the faith communities who serve as their refuge. Thus, this project examines the economic ethics of black churches in the rural South whose congregants and broader communities have long struggled amidst persistent poverty..Through a case study of communities in Alabama‘s Black Belt, this book argues that if the economic ethic of the Black Church remains accommodationist, it will continue to become increasingly irrelevant to communities that experience persistent poverty. Despite its historic role in combatting racial oppression and social injustice, the Church has also perpetuated ideologies that uncritically justify unjust social structures. Wilson shows how the Church can shift the conversation and reality of poverty by moving from a legacy of accommodationism and toward a legacy of empoweringliberating economic ethics. . | 出版日期 | Book 2017 | 关键词 | Black Religion; Tuskegee; Neoliberalism; Poverty; Christianity; religion and society | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-66348-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-88221-5 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-66348-7 | copyright | The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s) 2017 |
