E-grāmata: Rainbow Theology: Bridging Race, Sexuality, and Spirit

This is a landmark book. It not only brings to the center of theological reflection the silenced but vibrant voices of LGBTIQ persons of color, but it charts ground-breaking directions for religious thought, church practices, and social and political analysis. Kelly Brown Douglas, Goucher College, Author of Sexuality and the Black Church: A Womanist Perspective With characteristic grace, Cheng not only turns the complex categories of race and sexuality into accessible speech, he links them to spirit without missing a beat. Laurel C. Schneider, Vanderbilt University, Author of Beyond Monotheism: A Theology of Multiplicity Patrick Cheng is one of the first theologians to substantively engage queer of color critique, thus fundamentally challenging the parameters of not only queer theology, but theology as a whole. The book is truly groundbreaking. Andrea Smith, University of California, Riverside, Author of Native Americans and the Christian Right: The Gendered Politics of Unlikely Alliances In a world dominated by a binary, either-or, monochromatic approach to diversity, Rainbow Theology challenges us to recover a place where a multiplicity of experiences and identities are held in creative tension.
