In The Oxford Handbook of Religion and Race in American History, thirty-six scholars investigate the complex interdependencies of religion and race through American history. The volume covers the religious experience, social realities, theologies, and sociologies of racialized groups in American religious history, as well as the ways that religion contributed to and challenged their racialization.
To my mind, the editors should be congratulated for pulling together a capacious, challenging, and fair group of essays that deliver on the volume's promise to consider race and religion in American history in a comprehensive manner...[T]his book is a provocative and exciting resource for the study of race and religion in the United States.
