J. Kameron Carter

In this book, the author examines the deeper philosophical, theological, and religious history that animates our times to advance a new approach to understanding religion. Drawing on the black radical tradition and black feminism, the author explores the modern invention of religion as central to settler colonial racial technologies wherein antiblackness is a founding and guiding religious principle for the modern world. He therefore sets black religion apart from modern religion, even as it show more tries to include and enclose it. - from the publisher show less
