Churches, Blackness, and Contested Multiculturalism [electronic resource] : Europe, Africa, and North America / edited by R. Smith, W. Ackah, A. Reddie

This volume assesses contemporary church responses to multicultural diversity and resisted categories of social difference, with a central focus on whether or how racial, ethnic, religious, sexual, and gender differences are validated by churches (and especially black churches) torn between competing inclusive and exclusive tendencies.
