Bøger af Emilie M. Townes

This groundbreaking book provides an analytical tool to understand how and why evil works in the world as it does. Deconstructing memory, history, and myth as received wisdom, the volume critically examines racism, sexism, poverty, and stereotypes.

Once again, Emilie Townes brings together essays by leading womanist theologians, interweaving a concern for matters of race, gender, and class as these bear on the well-being of the African-American community. Her emphasis is not on evil and suffering, but on "hope, salvation, and transformation" for individuals and their communities.
