BLACK THEOLOGY

The Black Messiah -  Albert Cleage  Most blacks accepted the slave brand of Christianity at face value. Moreover, white missionaries persuaded the blacks that life on earth was insignificant because "obedient servants of God could expect a reward in heaven after death." The white interpretation of Christianity effectively divested the slaves of any concern they might have had about their freedom in the present.

Included are entries for books and articles.  Substantially describes works relating to Christian theology about or from the many peoples of Africa, and surveys the topic from the century after Christ to the present.
