Beskrivning
In Black Lives Matter and The Image of God: A Theo-Anthropological Study, the author argues that "God" mirrors humankind rather than the other way around. “God” for him is made in the image of man. Humankind is not created by “God.” What one means by “God” is thus subjective and informed by one’s context. Consequently, Black lives matter to “God” only if they matter to the theologian. The depth of the matter depends on his or her experience. Hence, this book is memoiristic in discussing systematic loci like “God,” humankind, Christ, and the Trinity. The author concludes that “God’s” future is inseparable from humane values that eschew white supremacy and other modes of self-deification in favor of ethics that cultivate life for all human beings.
