Abstract

This article seeks to re-think confessional Black Christian faith, in the British context, through the use of such refining optics as Black liberation theology and religious, postcolonial discourse. I argue that Black Christian faith in Britain is a product of empire and colonialism and so has been infected by the "viral strain" of neo-colonialist religio-cultural epistemological frameworks. This, as a corollary, has limited and stifled the praxiological effect of Black Christian faith in Britain. In seeking to combine postcolonial discourse with the more traditional attention to liberative praxis found within Black theology, this essay seeks to chart a new intent and future for Black Christian faith in Britain.
