will present The Ecologic Nature of African American Religion–A Framework
Abstract
Rooted in Africanist spirituality, it synchretically blended with (evangelical) Christianity in the New World, African American religion during slavery transformed the worldview of African Americans regarding their approach to both the sacred and the secular. The paper will analyze how African Americans used their eco-spiritual resources to subjectify themselves in history, i.e., to root their existence in history.
