Critical Race Theology: White Supremacy, American Christianity, and the Culture Wars

“Floyd-Thomas invites us to look more closely at the ways in which White supremacy and White Christian nationalism are abominations that forsake the founders of our struggling democracy to live into our motto—the land of the free. . . . Floyd-Thomas holds a light to help us live our faith more deeply as we walk toward our better selves as individuals and as a nation.” –Emilie M. Townes, Martin Luther King, Jr., Professor of Religion and Black Studies, Boston University School of Theology   “Floyd-Thomas lays bare what critical race theorists have always suspected: . . . whiteness is not only property but has a lease on God. This brilliant text bridges the growing chasm between liberation theology and political analysis with equal degrees of poignancy and timeliness. . . . Read this text in order to work together and think to transform American society and culture for the better.” –Blanche Bong Cook, Curt and Linda Rodin Professor of Law and Social Justice, Loyola University Chicago S
