Black Lives Matter and the Image of God: A Theo-Anthropological Study

The author argues that God mirrors humankind, making "God" subjective and informed by one's context. Black lives matter to "God" only if they matter to the theologian, and the depth of the matter depends on their experience. The book is memoiristic in discussing systematic loci like "God," humankind, Christ, and the Trinity, concluding that "Gods" 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.

Black Lives Matter and The Image of God: A Theo-Anthropological Study challenges the traditional notion that God is the creator of humankind. Instead, the author argues that God is made in the image of man, and humankind is not created by God. This subjective understanding of God is informed by one's context and experiences. Consequently, the book explores systematic loci such as God, humankind, Christ, and the Trinity through a memoiristic approach. The author concludes that the future of "God" 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.
