For My People: Black Theology and the Black Church - James H Cone - 369g

"Cone's book Black Theology and Black Power (1969) eloquently equated black power with the political and spiritual liberation of black Americans. In it, he equated blackness as symbolic of oppression and whiteness as symbolic of the oppressors. Cone continued his teachings of what soon became known as "black theology" in a second book, A Black Theology of Liberation (1971), which strongly condemned racism and oppression. During the 1970s, Cone became a force in the development of liberation theologies in Third World countries. Beginning in 1976, he became an important figure in the Ecumenical Association of Third World Theologians. Cone's association with liberation theologies also broadened and transformed his vision of Christian theology."Price: R250.00Edition: Second impressionPublished: 1986Publishers: Skotaville PublishersISBN: 094700906XCondition: Paperback in good condition, with very minor scuff marks around the edges of the cover and top and bottom of the spine.
