Description
The biblical studies classroom can be a site of personal and social transformation for students and teachers alike. To make it a place for positive change, the contributors to Race and Biblical Studies question and reevaluate traditional teaching practices and assessment tools in order to offer practical guidance for an antiracist pedagogy. The introduction and fifteen essays not only critique previous practices that have reinforced whiteness as the norm in many ways, both wittingly or unwittingly, but also provide tools for engaging issues of social context and scriptural authority, nationalism and religious identities, critical race theory, and how race, gender, and class can be addressed empathetically.
