RELST 174 - Black Faith and Thought

(also listed as BLKST 174 )
Credits: 4
An introductory survey of the Black religious experience in the United States from the early twentieth century to the present. Students explore the doctrines, traditions, and practices of prominent and obscure Black religious leaders, movements, and organizations. The exploration includes examining how Black faith and thought have evolved to offer critical religio-cultural and religio-racial responses to contemporary socio-political issues and challenges faced by the Black community in the US (e.g., race, gender, sexuality, social reform).
