Abstract

AbstractThis article references the death of God movement, especially the work of Richard L. Rubenstein, to examine eliminationism and genocidal practices against people categorized as disposable. Genocidal practices have been executed in American history against indigenous people, enslaved people, Asian and Pacific Islander people, Latina/o people, and today against their descendants. The article focuses attention on genocidal practices against migrating people, especially the undocumented. Belief in Whitegod has provided theological justification for genocidal practices against people rendered disposable. The death of Whitegod has been prophesied by theologians of color. After the death of Whitegod, we are called to confess the God who is Creator of all people and live out the Great Commandment, seeing each person as our neighbor.
