“As an interdisciplinary volume, Preaching Black Earth is a collection that features sermons, environmental justice reflections, and interviews. Part I includes ecowomanist sermons from political activists Stacey Abrams, Sofía Betancourt, and Elonda Clay, as well as biblical scholar Kenneth Ngwa and meditations from the Black prophetic Christian liberation tradition by John Kinney and Otis Moss III. Deeply woven into the tradition of African American literature, this book also offers selections of eco-poetry that weaves parts I and II together. Part II opens with my own eco-poetry as a unique contribution to the field of environmental justice and includes five interview conversations with foremost scholar leaders in the field, Heber Brown, Christopher Carter, Frederick Douglass Haynes III, Larry Rasmussen, Frances Roberts-Gregory, and Gina M. Stewart. . . . As a collective, these voices illustrate the depth and expansive scope of ecowomanism and signal the importance of interdisciplinary, interreligious, and intercultural approaches in ecowomanism for the work of climate justice.” —from the introduction |
