RELC 2770 - The Black Church

Effective Date 10/21/2021
“The Black Church” carries unique symbolic weight in America–but why? This course explores how the idea of the Black Church gained moral authority, whether there is a collective Black Church or only black churches, the traditions and practices the concept names, who the concept celebrates and who it marginalizes, and how–or whether–the Black Church, as myth or reality, is still relevant in African American life today.
