Let us remember Metz’s apocalyptic witness dangerously, in our texts and in our embodied acts of solidarity.
The founder of Black Liberation Theology, the Rev. Dr. James Cone died on April 28, 2018. We asked scholars, religious leaders, and activists around the Political Theology Network to share their brief reflections on the passing of this scholar, pastor, visionary, and prophet.
Does political theology offer strategies for resisting injustice? Or should political theology itself be resisted (because it is part of the problem)? Of course, the answer is yes.
I do not know what political theology ideally ought to be. But I do know that, minimally, it should not be cruel.
