Kemet to Black Liberation
from SpeakEZ Black Renaissance Podcast Hosted by Qadry Harris, M. Div.
This short lecture explores key insights from the presentation "Theological Anthropologies: From Kemet to Black Liberation," given at the 36th Annual Cheikh Anta Diop International Conference. In just 12 minutes, we break down how James Cone’s Black Liberation Theology compares to African spiritual traditions rooted in Ancient Egypt. We’ll also look at critiques of Cone’s work, especially around its reliance on Western ideas, and discuss how scholars like Diop and Theophile Obenga offer a more Afrocentric perspective. Finally, we’ll discuss how these ideas can help reshape the Black Church today. Listen in for a fresh look at Black theology and African spirituality!
