African-descended women have long had a fraught relationship with orthodox readings of the bible. They have not been allowed to find their own histories within the voices of scripture.
Reflecting on the suffering of black women throughout history, CL Nash demonstrates how they might situate themselves within the stories of scripture, allowing the stories of women like Rahab and the Syrophoenician woman to become their own.
Dr. CL Nash is a womanist theologian whose work disrupts comfortable religion. Based at the University of Edinburgh, she examines the intersections of race, gender, and faith, with current research on religious nationalism and movements such as the Nation of Islam and Kenya’s Mau Mau. She is the founder of the Misogynoir to Mishpat Research Network, connecting marginalized scholars worldwide.
