Robert Beckford

This book contours Robert Beckford’s recontextualization of African American Black and Womanist theologies of liberation. Making the black British experience a point of departure, Beckford’s theological method appropriates two distinct approaches to pursue a contextual theology or a Black theology dub: first, a correlation of linguistic concepts from Black cultural history and urban life (Rahtid, Dread, and Dub) with the theological categories of God,
Jesus, and the Spirit ; second, a media theopraxis or inscribing of Black theology onto commercial television documentary filmmaking and studio-produced contemporary gospel music.

In the My Theology series, the world’s leading Christian thinkers explain some of the principal tenets of their theological beliefs in concise, pocket-sized books.
