Klappentext
Refiguring black culture and religion beyond conventional accounts, New Black Godz interrogates and rethinks problems and tropes within the fields of religious and Africana studies. Using the expressive culture of hip hop and critical theory to provide analytical and conceptual frameworks, Monica Miller redefines the very notion of black religion, which is recast as identity formation.New Black Godz considers the god-like status of iconic cultural figures such as Beyonce Knowles, Oprah Winfrey and Kanye West, who "know where to go" to escape the United States and its racism. In contrast, Monica Miller argues that those with "nowhere to go", become a different sort of "god" through identity-based sacrifice: Trayvon Martin, Sandra Bland, Eric Garner and countless others, from those well-known to the not-yet known, remain the permanent black and brown underclass in America and around the world.
Using textual and ethnographic studies in New York, Philadelphia, London, Paris, Germany and Switzerland, New Black Godz is a definitive contribution to ongoing debates about the complex and varied contours of African-American religious and political life in the 21st century.
