TELEVISED REDEMPTION: BLACK RELIGIOUS MEDIA AND RACIAL EMPOWERMENT

Book ID/图书代码： 06684517C00028

English Summary/英文概要： The institutional structures of white supremacy―slavery, Jim Crow laws, convict leasing, and mass incarceration―require a commonsense belief that black people lack the moral and intellectual capacities of white people. It is through this lens of belief that racial exclusions have been justified and reproduced in the United States. Televised Redemption argues that African American religious media has long played a key role in humanizing the race by unabashedly claiming that blacks are endowed by God with the same gifts of goodness and reason as whites―if not more, thereby legitimizing black Americans’ rights to citizenship.

If racism is a form of perception, then religious media has not only altered how others perceive blacks, but has also altered how blacks perceive themselves. Televised Redemption argues that black religious media has provided black Americans with new conceptual and practical tools for how to be in the world, and changed how black people are made intelligible and recognizable as moral citizens. In order to make these claims to black racial equality, this media has encouraged dispositional changes in adherents that were at times empowering and at other times repressive. From Christian televangelism to Muslim periodicals to Hebrew Israelite radio, Televised Redemption explores the complicated but critical redemptive history of African American religious media.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 白人霸权奴隶制的制度结构，吉姆•克拉的法律，定罪租赁和大规模监禁 - 需要一个常识，认为黑人缺乏白人的道德和智力能力。在美国，通过这种观点认为种族排除是合理和复制的。电视赎回辩称，非裔美国人的宗教传播长期以来在人性化这一种族方面发挥了关键的作用，毫不犹豫地声称黑人被上帝赋予了与白人相同的善良和理性的礼物 - 如果不是更多的话，从而使黑人美国人的公民权利合法化。

如果种族主义是一种看法，那么宗教媒体不仅改变了别人怎么看待黑人，而且改变了黑人对自己的看法。电视赎回辩称，黑人宗教媒体为黑人美国人提供了如何在世界上建立新的概念和实用工具，并改变了黑人如何被理解和认可为道德公民。为了使这些主张成为黑人种族平等，这个媒体鼓励了有时赋予权力和压制的信徒的态度变化。从基督教远程教育到穆斯林期刊到希伯来语以色列广播，电视赎回探索了非裔美国宗教媒体的复杂但关键的救赎历史。（WYL）

“不可能更及时或重要，作者是三位杰出的学者，他们共同写下关于非洲裔美国人从反奴役和反殖民运动中被忽视但至关重要的代表和宗教交汇的书籍以“改变白人至上主义常识”的方式，将民族志和历史研究结合起来，通过不同的传统融入黑人身份 - 基督教繁荣部，非裔美国人伊斯兰教和黑希伯来人以色列人 - 他们向我们展示了黑人信仰的复杂性社区随着时间的推移，这本书应该是阅读人类学和媒体研究，非洲裔美国人的研究，美国历史，宗教研究和更多的学科。 ---金边斯堡，纽约大学人类学教授大卫 B. 克里瑟

"This book is one of a kind in disentangling the enduring and transformative power of black, religio-political representation as embodied praxis, as hermeneutics of race, and as the radical reimaging of subjectivity in reshaping legislation, culture, and the black subject. This is a book that unveils contesting histories and hidden abodes of white supremacist narratives set against the existential remapping of Christianity, Islam and Judaism that are lived, practiced, and meditated through black spirituality and the profundity of its rhetorical mission. Media and black religion become something more in this book: they become a culmination of this moment in which a black president and the call for black lives to matter rise out of the machinery of representation, the passion of belonging, and the endurance of belief."- --D. Soyini Madison, Professor of Performance Studies, Northwestern University"

"Could not be more timely or important. The authors are three outstanding scholars who have put their heads together to write a definitive book about the neglected yet crucial intersection of representation and religion by and for African Americans from anti-slavery and anti-colonial movements to #blacklivesmatter in ways that ’denaturalize white supremacist commonsense.’ Integrating their ethnographic and historical research on the mediation of black identity through different traditions - Christianity prosperity ministry, African American Islam, and Black Hebrew Israelite - they show us the complexity of black faith communities over time. This book should be required reading in anthropology and media studies, African American studies, American history, religious studies, and many more disciplines." - --Faye Ginsburg, David B. Kriser Professor of Anthropology, New York University
