Description

White Lies: Race and Uncertainty in the Twilight of American Religion offers a deep look into how African-American bodies serve as the site for cultural debates regarding a contested "white religion" in the United States. Published by Routledge, this work provides a historical and philosophical examination of racial dynamics and religious identity. Christopher Driscoll roots his analysis in the foundational ideas of W.E.B. DuBois and James Baldwin. He traces how the definition of "white religion" has shifted from the nineteenth century through to contemporary racial controversies, including the death of Michael Brown. By engaging with modern philosophers and popular imagery, the book examines the instabilities found within this framing concept. This text is an essential resource for those studying the intersections of race, sociology, and religion. It provides a framework for understanding how racial identity and religious concepts interact within the American landscape, making it a significant addition to academic studies in anthropology and social sciences.
