Abstract
Recent theological and philosophical accounts of race have rightly called into question race and racial identity's rootedness in the created order. If race is not a fact of human biology or physiology but is instead the product of imposing malicious institutional judgments on members of the human community, does the Christian confession of faith in the resurrection of the body and life everlasting entail a resurrection and redemption from racial identity? Building on the work of Jonathan Tran and Eleonore Stump, this author argues that race persists in the eschatological state as a healed wound or scar that indexes the lamentable past from which we have been redeemed.
