Jesus is Dread
This book seeks to give expression to black theological thought in Britain. The author, an academic with a black Pentecostal background, wants the 'black church' to interact with the concerns of black popular culture to develop its own theology. (He sees it, at present, as oppressed by the conventions, symbols and structures of white Eurocentric theology.)
