THLE 660A - Special Topics: Race and Christian Theology

Institution:

Eastern University

Subject:

Theology and Ethics

Description:

The Presidents of six Southern Baptist Seminaries issued a statement affirming, "Critical Race Theory, Intersectionality and any version of Critical Theory is incompatible.with the denominations core beliefs." Unfortunately, race and Christian theology have been linked since the late 15th century. Race and Christian Theology is an investigation of racial architecture within Christian life and theology, as well as a study at the intersection of the theological and the "political." This course takes an interdisciplinary approach to probe the connection between Western Christian theology and the emergence of race and its persistence in the late-modern West.
