Profane Faith

Dr. James Cone was legendary. He truly was. To create something like a Black Liberation Theology when there were very little Black theologians in the academy took not only guts, but, the power of God. Dr. Cone was a mentor to many and help create an ethos that is needed now more than ever. His legacy will live on. This weeks special edition has three perspectives on Dr. Cone. I have Dr. Velda Love, Dr. Andre Johnson, and Q Nellum on to memorialize Dr. Cone's legacy. This gon be a good one!

(EXPLICIT) Childish Gambino dropped a bomb on us all. His video portraying life for Black people in America is stunning. There is so much going on in that video that it takes at least 20 takes to pick up on subtle things he is presenting on. On this weeks special issue, I bring on two guests to help me break down this video. Jeanelle Austin and Dr. Jon Gill. These two break it down. We dive deep and begin to deconstruct this powerful transmediated art. As always, let's dig in!

Ever doubted God really exists... Yeah, me too. But, some have asserted that religion is actually an oppressor; it disguises the real issues while having people think all things are good. Well, this week I go in with these subjects and talk with the brilliant Dr. Anthony Pinn. Dr. Pinn has a unique perspective as it relates to religion, race, and humanism. This conversation is on point y'all. I've been wanting to have this one for a long time. So much to unpack, go on and take that listen.

Austin is a brilliant thinker, activist, author, and speaker. I finally get to sit down with her and just talk. She talks about the exhaustion of White folk, Black bodies in these here United States, and the challenge to undo years of colonized theology.

This week I talk with Justin McRoberts who is an author, speaker, and thought leader living out in the Bay Area. We cover some ground on this one! Justin's perspectives as a White male is good to engage with. His own resistance and journey has been an interesting one and this was a good conversation to have this week. As always, check it out. Oh, and we say shit a few times. So, there’s that.

Yup, we go in this week on racial reconciliation theologies. To back me up, I brought with me Daniel Camacho and together we team up on critically interrogating one of the most popular theological constructs around. This conversation is needed and before you go and get all sentimental on me, take a listen. Check out the arguments and listen to the break down. We don't throw the baby out with any dish water. But, we do examine a construct that we both believe is holding a lot of us, POC, back. So, as always, check it out!
